with

Tanya Cusan Espinosa

The ingenious Cusan's draw their inspiration from Latin American culture beautifully blending dance,theatre, puppetry and song to create some of the most colourful and imaginative of shows around.

Their work is described as funny,witty and magical...

the magic realism of so much Latin American art is present in all of the Cusan's work which presents characters and scenarios that express the idosyncratic and often bizarre aspects of society.

Everyday characters are blended with popular legend and myth.

Tanya was born in Colombia South America. She trained in dance and theatre at the Academia Allegro in Cali, Colombia and at the Northern School of Contemporary dance in Leeds, for the last few years she has been working alongside her brother Sergio.
