Newest Dance Film "818"
After eating her spicy food the dancer gets hotter and hotter by the moment and needs to cool off. Shot around nostalgic parts of Los Angeles where I grew up. 818 pays homage to my 90s childhood and hometown. It was amazing to receive this honor to be the choreographer for a film in my hometown.
This film was made possible by a commission from the City of Los Angeles Department of Cultural Affairs. Many thanks to DCA's Performing Arts Division, the Los Angeles Dance Worker Coalition, and City of Los Angeles Council District 2 and Council District 3 for their generous support.
Screening April 21st at 8:30pm at the Los Angeles Dance Festival

Movement Workshop at Theodore Payne Foundation
Have you noticed the curling of the Marah macrocarpa's (wild cucumber) vines? Twisting and turning across space to grow? Or the cycle of a California Buckwheat flower, from pink bud to rusty chaff? The expression of a plant's life is a constant dance with itself and the environment. Join dancer and choreographer Mia Orozco in the TPF gardens to deepen your relationship to California native plants through dance.
Everyone can learn through movement! This is a class for all ranges, no prior experience necessary. The goal is to practice and embody a language without words. This class will take place across various parts of the TPF gardens inspired by the plants, geography, wildlife and self-expression. Involving individual and group work, with time for reflection and sharing, we ask that students come ready to move and dance!
Please wear closed-toed shoes, bring water and dress for weather. This class involves moving on a steep, uneven path.
For children 12 years old and up.

The Messenger
Created by Olivia Mia Orozco in collaboration with Julienne Mackey and presented inside Laurie Shapiro’s installations in Los Angeles this July 2022. Informed by Hopi creation and agricultural mythology, and Hopi Folktales, the work blends these influences to create an inspired story honoring the earth and bringing lessons from the past to enrich our futures collectively. The work plays with themes of the infinite nature of reality and the interconnectedness in us all.
This is Olivia's newest full length dance theater performance work. Stay tuned as we find the next location for this evolving performance to be presented.
