Mission

Contra-tiempo is a bold, multilingual los angeles-based activist dance theater company creating physically intense and politically astute performance work that moves audience to imagine what is possible. We create a new physical, visual and sonic vocabulary that collages salsa, afro-cuban, hip-hop, and contemporary dance with theater, compelling text, and original music to bring dynamic multi-modal experiences to the concert stage. While our performances are consistently electrifying, what sets the company apart most is our unique relationship to our own community. Contra-tiempo takes an uncompromisingly radical approach to the ways in which artists function within communities and create their work. We intentionally engage diverse audiences, cultivate dancer leaders, and center stories not traditionally heard on the concert stage, using our engagement process to inform and continuously re-fuel our creative process, and vice-versa. Much like the communities we reach, contra-tiempo is it
