The result is Ballet Hispanico of New York, a 30-year-old company that will perform tomorrow night in the Lied Center. "My main goal when I started the company was to represent Hispanic culture in a high-quality way." Ramirez said. "Because dance requires no words, a general audience can learn our culture better." The pieces performed by the company's 12 dancers mostly are a mix of classical ballet technique and Spanish and Latin American dance forms. Ramirez, who was born in Venezuela, said that the company would present three pieces tomorrownight. The first piece, called "Tierra de Nadie," was choreographed by the Spanish choreographer Maria Rovira. "Tierra de Nadie," which means "no man's land," is a mutual territory where different kinds of people meet. "For example, I was born in Venezuela, lived in New York and now I'm here," Ramirez said. "It is a mixture of flame menco with "Bury Me Standing" draws music from Spain and western Europe to portray the gypsies' experences throughout the centuries. fabulous drum beats." "The gypsies are the ultimate outsiders because they are always moving from one place to another and nobody wants them to stay there," Ramirez said. She said the last piece, called "Ritmo y Ruido," portrays today's youth and how people behave today. Hip-hop and Afro-Cuban rhythms accompany this piece. During their week-long residency in Lawrence, several students and Lawrence community members had a chance to meet the dancers. At a potluck dinner, organized by the center, took place Wednesday at the Lawrence Arts Center. About 70 people came to learn salsa steps from members of Ballet Hispanico. "The girl that danced with me was really patient, and I learned a lot," Nathan McCommon, Topeka senior, said. Ramirez said meeting members of the community was a great opportunity to create more awareness about Hispanic culture. "People who came here and don't know about our culture will learn some," she said. "I love the fact that they are here because they want to understand our culture." Tina Delarosa, the executive director of the Kansas advisory committee on Hispanic Affairs, said that she was pleased with the commitment of the Lied Center to bring in Hispanic performances. She said that with out the center's help, several communities in Kansas never would have an opportunity to see Hispanic artists and understand elements of another culture through arts. Tickets for tonight's performance are available at the KU box offices and cost $10 to $12.50 for students and $19 to $25 for Pedro Ruiz and Veronica Ruiz of Ballet Hispanico will be performing this weekend.
