Dance NOW! Miami Presents Program III, featuring “Oceanica.” Co-Artistic Director Diego Salterini plunges audiences into the ocean’s dual nature—its breathtaking power and delicate vulnerability—through a contemporary dance and kinetic meditation on marine life. The full ensemble embodies marine life through movement blending ballet's precision, modern dance's depth, and jazz's energy, journeying from ocean depths to surface in a celebration of this biodiverse ecosystem.

Co-Director Baumgarten’s “Among Lovers & Friends,” will return, set to the luxurious piano sounds of Robert Schumann, inviting audiences into an intimate dinner party where anything can happen.

DNM will also present "Crocevie/Crossroads," a multi-media collaboration exploring how Naples and Miami mirror each other in cultures, rhythms, intersections, superstitions, religions, languages, and histories. An original score by Neapolitan composer/pianist Sara Amoresano and original video art projections by Alex Amoresano accompanies choreography from the Salterini/Baumgarten team for an unforgettable night of dance.
