Ballet Hispánico explores Evita Perón’s diverging legacies in this invigorating and emotional work. Her rags-to-riches story is interpreted through movement – following her journey from dancehall performer to Argentina’s First Lady and sudden death.
For over 50 years, innovative New York–based Ballet Hispánico has been bringing communities together to celebrate and explore Latinx cultures through dance. Last seen at the Kennedy Center in 2013, Ballet Hispánico returns with internationally-renowned choreographer Annabelle Lopez Ochoa’s Doña Perón—her first evening-length work for the company.
Watch Next at the Kennedy Center: Ballet Hispanico Friday, October 13 at 10pm on WITF TV and the PBS or WITF app!
