The story

Festival de Danza Contemporanea de Cuba in Havana

Tied to Danza Contemporanea de Cuba, the company founded in 1959 by Ramiro Guerra and led since 1987 by Miguel Iglesias, this listing is documented mainly through the company's own performance history at the Teatro Nacional de Cuba rather than through a clearly independent festival record, so details here focus on the company's well-established background.

Danza Contemporanea de Cuba, the company most closely associated with this festival listing, was founded on September 25, 1959, when choreographer Ramiro Guerra launched a call for dancers from the newly created Modern Dance Department of the Teatro Nacional de Cuba, aiming to establish in Cuba the modern-dance aesthetic he had absorbed studying in the United States with figures in the lineage of Martha Graham.

02

The mystery stays covered

The company's more than seventy active repertoire works and its touring history across four continents provide substantial material for programming, even where independent confirmation of a separately branded festival format is limited
