NEW YORK
GEORGINA PAZCOGUIN
As Co-Artistic Director of ate9, I bring the unique “Rogue Ballerina” perspective—my brand rooted in breaking stereotypes and defying traditional ballet boundaries.
This approach aligns naturally with ate9’s commitment to innovation and risk-taking in contemporary dance, enriching our vision with a fresh, bold edge.
Co-Artistic Director New York
Working closely with Danielle Agami and Adrien Delépine, I aim to expand ate9’s reach across the U.S., introducing audiences nationwide to our unique blend of physicality and narrative.
Together, we are crafting a space that celebrates individuality and inclusivity, establishing a dynamic, rebellious voice within New York’s dance scene and beyond.
The Pulse of ate9’s Creative Energy
New York embodies the spirit of constant movement and innovation, making it a natural home for ate9’s bold and evolving vision.
Here, we draw from the city’s vibrant energy, connecting with its diverse artistic landscape and infusing it with our unique creative force.
