Sin Fronteras- No Borders

Tabula Rasa Dance Theater announces Sin Fronteras an exciting contemporary dance program inspired by the heritage and experiences of Mexicans in both their homeland and beyond.

Performances will take place June 20 21 and 22 2025 at 2 p.m. at El Museo del Barrio.

Sin Fronteras - No Borders proposes that Mexicans wherever they go carry No Borders. Through movement music costume lighting and the body this production explores how cultural identity transcends geographical boundaries while drawing on the collective and individual memories that shape and enrich the immigrant experience.

Premiered in 2023 "Border of Lights" responds to a growing global phenomenon: the demonization of immigrants. Since the piece’s debut the anti-immigrant rhetoric has only intensified. "Border of Lights” directly addresses these prejudices in an effort to restore dignity and visibility to immigrant communities. Using advanced technology rapid costume changes ingenious scenography and a startlingly original lexicon of movement "Border of Lights" honors the lives and stories of those who cross borders seeking hope opportunity and belonging.

Sin Fronteras-No Borders also features the world premiere of Escaramuza an energetically abstract tribute to the all-female Mexican equestrian teams known for their daring high-speed synchronized routines. The Escaramuzas who wear vibrantly colored folkloric costumes and ride side-saddle embody both elegance and fierce control. Escaramuza honors the power customs and visibility of Mexican women at the same time strengthening all immigrant voices.
