Ballet Hispánico’s Doña Perón
April 28-29, 2023
A renowned cultural treasure, Ballet Hispánico boasts over 50 years of innovative artistry that brings communities together to celebrate Latinx cultures through dance. Fresh from its world premiere, Doña Perón is an explosive portrait of Eva “Evita” Perón, one of the most captivating and controversial women in Argentinian history. Even as she rose from dancehall performer to Argentina’s First Lady, Evita’s advocacy for women and the working class raised skepticism as she indulged in the opulence of a high-class life. Was she a voice for the people or a deceitful actress? Internationally renowned Latina choreographer Annabelle Lopez Ochoa explores these diverging legacies in this seminal full-length work for Ballet Hispánico.

When the curtain comes down, you’ll release the breath you didn’t know you’d been holding. Scotland’s acclaimed national dance company brings this riveting retelling of the Salem witch trials to TPAC for its Nashville Premiere. Inspired by Arthur Miller’s classic play, Helen Pickett’s masterful choreography and Peter Salem’s spine-chilling score unleash the emotional force of this visceral tour de force. You’ll be on the edge of your seat as the tight-knit Puritan society of 17th century Massachusetts unravels into gripping paranoia in this full-evening program of undiluted intensity with powerful contemporary resonance.
