Thodos Dance Chicago & Luna Negra Dance Theater

Back at the North Shore Center after an incredible World Premiere performance last February of The White City, Thodos Dance Chicago is a critically acclaimed contemporary dance company with an American choreographic voice and vibrant, award-winning style. The company performs on the national and international dance circuits, as well as in Chicago’s most prominent dance events. Luna Negra Dance Theater has established itself as a vital component in Chicago’s arts and cultural community. Luna Negra celebrates the richness and diversity of Latino culture through the creation of works by contemporary Latino choreographers while steering away from stereotypes and folkloric representations. Artistic
Directors, Melissa Thodos and Gustavo Ramirez Sansano combine creative forces to create a unique world premiere featuring dancers from both companies.
