Centro Danza Matadero

For Centro Danza Matadero, THE HERDS is a joyful cultural encounter for several reasons. We share with the project a commitment to an art form that, to truly be art, must weave together emotions, desires, utopias, cultures, countries and languages. We also share the same vocation, as CDM’s mission is precisely to uphold the idea that dance, like Madrid, is a heart that embraces all other hearts — a home where differences can coexist, rejoice, and love. The fact that the Compañía Nacional de Danza is participating in and contributing to the project, accompanying us on this creative journey, is excellent news for dance, for Matadero, for CDM, and for our city.María Pagés and El Arbi El Harti Artistic Directors of CDM
