The BlakTina Festival 

is a movement festival of cutting edge work presented by Licia Perea of the Latina Dance Theater Project (LDTP) and the Bootleg Theater. This is a first - featuring Latina (o) and Black choreographers in one festival based in the greater Los Angeles area!  This exciting new festival will feature 8 contemporary choreographers in one evening of compelling work!

December 12^th, 13^th and 14^th, 2013 - 7:30 pm at Bootleg Theater

The BlakTina Festival will be forging new boundaries in the festival scene here!  The BlakTina Festival is Licia Perea's brainchild, giving focus to emerging and mid-career Black and Latina (o) choreographers!  She is co-producing BlakTina with Alicia Adams of the Bootleg.  Both organizations are committed to producing boundary defying performances born from the diverse cultural and artistic landscape of LA.  Perea's desire is to give back to the community by creating a platform for the varied, rich voices of the Latina (o) and Black cultures here.  She is focused on initiating a threefold process with goals of: Giving Black and Latina (o) choreographers an opportunity to present their work; creating a community of Black and Latina choreographers and finally to expand all of our collective audiences!  There are many dance festivals in LA but this will be the first of its' kind!
