Salsa y Salud

Salsa y Salud, Texas’ largest live Salsa and Dance show happens at Miller Outdoor Theater on Sept. 28. 

Texas’ biggest live Salsa and Dance show! Featuring international, regional, and local artists in an all original production guaranteed to make you want to dance!! Salsa y Salud combines high-energy salsa hits and classics with soulful dancing, featuring specially arranged music for the evening with many of the selections being world premieres. Original choreography and a cast of over 50 makes this a memorable evening for the entire family.

Celebrating its 9th Anniversary, Salsa y Salud is a citywide cultural and artistic initiative using an interactive performance as a way to positively impact the community. A collaborative presentation of the Foundation for Modern Music, Flamart, Strictly Street Salsa, American Heart Association, and others, it focuses on using artistic expression, in this case salsa, to promote community awareness and improvement in areas such as arts education, health, community building, and others.

2019’s show features the work of choreographer and dancer Reinaldo Costa (who trained in Cuba and was a member of the professional company at the Tropicana) and  music director Jorge “Cro-Cro” Orta, who has toured extensively in Africa, the Americas, and Europe with many groups including the famed Grupo Niche. Foundation for Modern Music’s (FMM) mission is to enhance, stimulate and educate our community through high-quality contemporary performing arts programs and collaborations that are inclusive and accessible to people of all ages, cultural backgrounds and socio-economic levels.

This is a ticketed event for the covered seating area. Free tickets are available (4 per person over age 16 while they last) at the Miller Outdoor Theatre box office the day of the performance between the hours of 10:30 AM-1:00 PM. If tickets remain at 1:00 PM, the box office will re-open one hour before show time to distribute the remaining tickets.
