MALEVO – the “South American Sensation” – was created by director, choreographer, and dancer, Matias Jaime.  The Company has reenvisioned the Argentine dance of Malambo; taking what is a traditional Argentinian folkloric dance performed originally by Gauchos of the Pampas region and elevating it to a modern, avant-garde, and transgressive vision.  Set to a pulsating rhythm of drums, the choreography combines the use of boleadoras, a leather and stone hunting tool used by Gauchos, with fast leg movements, energetic zapateados (stomping), and quick cepillados (brushing/scrubbing).  This exciting and dynamic show will have dancers pushing the Malambo style beyond its limits and giving audiences an extraordinary visual and sensory experience unlike any other.
