Blue13 Dance Company is an American dance ensemble living at the intersection of diaspora and disruption.

Blue13’s work rejects monolithic representations of both Indianness and contemporaneity and reveals complexities intrinsic to South Asian and intersectional identities through provocative and contemporary works.
