Maria Colaco Dance (New York, NY) |
| |
Maria Colaco is originally from India and is the Artistic Director of MariaColacoDance. Her work has been described as "confident, daring and refreshingly unexpected" (NYTHEATRE). Maria Colaco creates work that is a culmination of her cultural, professional and educational experiences - whether from her native India, her years on Florida's Redneck Riviera or her current life in New York. Influenced by pedestrian gestures, break dancing, classic modern dance and theatre, and frequently utilizing text and a wide range of media, Maria Colaco's work appeals to an ever-expanding audience. Maria's choreography benefits from her commitment to challenge the established boundaries between sacred and secular, classical and pop, comedy and tragedy. Her work has been showcased at Mulberry Street Theatre, Dancewave, WAX Works, The Puffin Room, Movement Research, Florida Dance Festival, Dance New Amsterdam and The New York International Fringe Festival, among others.
