San Diego Ballet Kicks Off Fall Season With “Signature Moves” On September 24-25

San Diego Ballet is turning up the heat and feeling the rhythm for the beginning of their fall season with “Signature Moves”, a performance merging Latin rhythms and ballet.

See two of San Diego Ballet’s audience favorites

This program will feature two of San Diego Ballet’s audience favorites, Que Bonito Amor, performed to live mariachi music, and Mambomania, one of Artistic Director Javier Velasco’s signature works.  Audiences will have two opportunities to be swept away and enjoy this incredible merging of cultures with performances on Saturday, September 24 and Sunday, September 25 at Southwestern College Performing Arts Center.

“San Diego Ballet is committed to the presentation of work that speaks to our Southern California audiences. This show is just one of the ways we do this,” said Javier Velasco, Artistic Director of San Diego Ballet. “These offerings feature ballets set to Latin music in a way that celebrates both the music and the dance equally. We are thrilled to bring back this tradition with 2 audience favorites.”

San Diego Ballet’s Signature Moves

Two of San Diego Ballet’s audience favorites, Que Bonito Amor and Mambomania, will be performed each day:

Que Bonito Amor

Get swept away in the evocative and romantic Que Bonito Amor set to rapturous score of Mariachi music. This piece is a valentine to the senses of joy and community that come from the sounds of Mariachi music.

Mambomania

One of Artistic Director Javier Velasco’s sizzling signature works, Mambomania is set to the music of Velasco’s childhood and danced with a great deal of dynamism.
