We are very excited to be hosting our onSTAGE live shows again, after a almost 2 year hiatus during the pandemic. We are kicking off our spring 2022 mini-season with a group that will keep you dancing! Join us for QUTIAPENAS, and get ready to clap your hands! QUITAPENAS was was formed around their shared love of dance rhythms from the Tropical Afro-Latin diaspora. They assembled a group of like minded friends to share the vision that went on to be QUITAPENAS. The group is made up of first generation son’s of immigrant parents from Guatemala and Mexico. |
The name means “to remove worries.” Everybody has a “pena” and the mission of QUITAPENAS is simple: to make you dance and leave you without a worry.
This tropical Afro-Latin combo was born under the warm California sun. They borrow aesthetics from the radical 60s, 70s and 80s. Each song echoes a remix of history and invites one to engage in the liberating evenings of Angola, Peru, Colombia, Brazil and beyond. Don't miss this show - we are gonna have a great time!
