A sense of humor and intense, explosive energy rarely seen in Latin American contemporary dance are the hallmarks of this innovative, young Argentinean company. Grupo Krapp, created in 1995, works the natural intersection between dance and theater, blending them into a new discipline. Following acclaimed performances at prestigious festivals in Argentina and Uruguay, the ensemble of dancers, musicians and actors makes its North American debut at Cal Performances with No Me Besabas? (Weren't you kissing me? ), set to musical fragments from Rosamel Araya, Compay Segundo and the U.K. based group Fun-da-men-tal. The second piece on the program, Río Seco (Dry River), receives its inspiration from "images of family vacations in the mountainous area rivers" of the Argentinean pampas (countryside).

In association with Berkeley Repertory Theatre

This tour is made possible with the support of Arts International, the National Performance Network and La Red de Promotores Culturales de Latinoamérica y el Caribe.
