Join Santa Fe’s own Zeitgeist Dance Theatre — one of New Mexico’s most compelling companies — for an electrifying evening of world-class contemporary dance. Zeitgeist Dance Theatre is proudly joined for the evening by the New Century Dance Project Contemporary Ensemble. Five original works by acclaimed choreographers Francisco Gella, Yusha-Marie Sorzano, Noelle Keyser, Joshua Whitehead, and Rhaine Marquardt come to life with over 70 exceptional dancers from around the world commanding the stage. The evening’s centerpiece honors Santa Fe’s 20th year as a UNESCO Creative City, paying tribute to New Mexico’s rich heritage through the story and work of contemporary artist Emily Trujillo and her Chimayo weaving roots.

ZDT’s concert is presented as part of the New Century Dance Project: New Mexico’s Festival of Performance & Choreography held on July 26 – August 3 in Santa Fe and Albuquerque. This annual festival from Artistic Director Francisco Gella unites dance artists across diverse genres, offering a unique laboratory for artistic development. Every summer, nearly 100 pre-professional, emerging, and professional artists and educators descend on New Mexico for concerts, classes, workshops, and activities focused on performance and choreography, guided by world-renowned teaching artists.
