Three choreographic storytellers bask in the light of their unspoken conversation, with a varied soundtrack threading each artist’s journey. Can We Dance Here? is that wordless exchange.
Bonded by their love of music, their crafts, and true connection, Soles of Duende’s move is to elevate the joy and music in group celebration of their cultural histories and dance styles.

𝗔𝗗𝗗𝗜𝗧𝗜𝗢𝗡𝗔𝗟 𝗜𝗡𝗙𝗢:
Soles of Duende features the percussive sounds of tap (Amanda Castro), Spanish flamenco (Arielle Rosales), and kathak Indian classical dance (Brinda Guha) in a multicultural, rhythmic example of how visual performing arts can speak volumes saying a word. The artists embody their people’s history and use their cultures’ rhythms as a universal language.
“When it comes to music, the one thing we do share? The floor … the floor lets us share our cultures across bars,” the ensemble says.
𝗣𝗼𝘀𝘁-𝗽𝗲𝗿𝗳𝗼𝗿𝗺𝗮𝗻𝗰𝗲 𝗱𝗶𝘀𝗰𝘂𝘀𝘀𝗶𝗼𝗻
After the performance, the artist will speak with interested audience members.
