A Qunceañera marks a young girl's coming of age as she enters womanhood. It is during her 15th year she finds her voice. As we turn 15, we celebrate our own coming of age as a woman-led, multidisciplinary company and dedicate our 2015-2016 season to the continued empowerment of the women's voice.

We are hard at work finalizing the last details to make this soirée one to remember. Purchasing a ticket not only includes food and drinks; it includes a dance performance by the ensemble, live entertainment by ensemble member Lisa Leszczewicz, plus DJ Tim Nice, a photo-booth by Al Zayed, arcade games, tarot card readings, Pop-A-Ballon Raffle and Visual Art Auction among some of the evenings festivities.
