A DanzArts x PASACAT Collaboration

Mestizaje: Interwoven Identities between Mexico, Philippines, and Spain is a riveting 90-minute dance performance that delves deep into the heart of cultural convergence, narrating a story of unity, diversity, and shared history through the universal language of dance. This captivating spectacle is an homage to the intricate tapestry of identities that emerged from nearly four centuries of Spanish colonization, weaving together the distinct but interconnected cultures of Mexico, the Philippines, and Spain.

At the core of "Mestizaje" is the celebration of mestizaje itself—a term that historically signifies the process of cultural and racial mixing between Indigenous peoples of the Americas and Europeans. This performance, however, expands the concept to encapsulate the rich exchange among the three regions, highlighting how each culture has been indelibly shaped by the others.
