Passion, athleticism, grace and intelligence are the hallmarks of the California Contemporary Dancers, an all-women's modern dance company offering fresh, innovative work which speaks of ancient ways and traditions while residing in a contemporary context. The company's thematic material is deeply rooted in Mehta's native Indian heritage and is shaped by an emerging American vision drawn from world literature, biography, philosophy and cultural history. The company has worked with dancers and musicians representing a broad range of cultures, styles and influences. It is committed to making their art accessible to people who do not usually attend modern dance performances.
