Formed in 1985, this troupe is based out of a lovely three-story headquarters designed by
famed local architectural firm Arquitectonica. The facade allows passers-by to watch the
dancers rehearsing through big picture windows, which makes you feel like you're in a
scene from
Fame,
except the weather is better and people don't spontaneously break into
song.
