Founded in Kansas City in 2004 Quixotic is the brainchild of award winning sound designer & visual artist Anthony Magliano and by award winning dancer/choreographer Keelan Whitmore.
Quixotic is an ensemble of musicians, dancers, aerialists, composers, designers, and choreographers collaborating to produce new forms of artistic expression. This inventive group of artists goes beyond the limits of any specific art form to create a total sensory experience for its audience. Quixotic makes performance art interactive and eliminates the barrier between performer and audience.
Lux Esalare features imaginative aerial and dance works to an all new sound track featuring live video feeds and unique interactive projection surfaces.
