Directed by

Marcos Duran channels group imaginations into embodied performance. His approach to directing is informed by craniosacral integration and the desire for healthier dance ecosystems. He draws inspiration from his work with Marcos Duran Performance Group in New York City from 2008-2017, where his choreography was  presented at venues such as Movement Research at the Judson Church, Theater for the New City, Dixon Place, La MaMa Experimental Theater Club, and Harkness Dance Center. More recently, Marcos's dance theater pieces have been  produced by the Strand Theater for debut at Center for Maine Contemporary Art in Rockland, Maine, and contemporary dance companies in San Diego.

Marcos was a 2023-2024 Far South Border North grant recipient sponsored by the California Arts Council with the Conrad Prebys Foundation. He works to uplift student voices in his role as a Dance Lecturer at UC San Diego and as Adjunct Professor at San Diego City College. In the 2025-2026 school year at UCSD, Marcos will be teaching Contact improvisation and Dance On Film. At SDCC he will be teaching Movement for Wellness.
