WHAT IS IT?

DANSPIEK DANCE THEATRE is a fiscally sponsored multi-media dance company which creatively analyzes the human condition. It was formed by choreographer/ artistic director Rich Lugo primarily to couple the performing arts with resources its audience can take action upon to improve many social issues. This company has been created to provide a unique, poignant, and dynamic dance theatre experience to a wide scope of audience members. Through each story-driven work, viewers will be provoked to identify universal human conflicts and search within to discover individual truths.

WHAT DOES IT MEAN?

"DANSPIEK" is a hybrid word which combines “dance” and “speak” in an intriguing and fabricated way to define a new, unique genre of dance.

OUR MISSION

The company also intends to artistically support charities and foundations which confront national and worldwide social issues.
