Global choreographer Nacho Duato, whose work the Chicago Tribune calls “gorgeously classical and pertly idiosyncratic,” created Gnawa exclusively for Hubbard Street in 2005. Set to evocative music by Hassan Hakmoun and Adam Rudolph, this vibrant ensemble work taps the Mediterranean spirit of North Africa and Duato’s native Spain. Costumes for Gnawa are by Modesto Lomba, chairman of the Spanish Fashion Designers’ Association.
