Created in collaboration with visual artist Luis De La Torre, this exhilarating piece is a celebration of the Latino tradition of "coming of age."  Vilaro takes an introspective look at this definitive moment that takes a girl from childhood to womanhood and explores the inner transformation that happens, through dance and movement set to a wonderfully diverse range of music from the traditional bolero to a contemporary score by Mexican composer Ana Lara.
