“…physical energy that tackles a complicated theme in a visceral manner.” – La Voz de Durango

Texas Performing Arts presents the U.S. premiere of Guadalajara, Mexico’s Crisol Danza Teatro, September 28 in McCullough Theatre. Described as a perfect flow of body, motion, word, mind, spirit, voice, dance, and theatre, Crisol draws from a variety of acting and dancing techniques to create distinctly unique performances.

Formed in 2009 by four women with diverse origins and proficiencies in the scenic arts, Crisol exudes authenticity by presenting the intimate truths of its characters without self-censorship or prejudices. From a spiritual and emotional angle, they explore their intimate universes, exposing their vulnerability and generating spaces of silence, of void, of no time.

Crisol will perform the U.S. premiere of Clepsidra Tiempo y Agua (Hourglass, Time and Water), a piece that explores the human condition from different stages of life.
