About East Coast Contemporary Ballet Company:

Founded in 2019 by Claire Mazza and Alejandro Ulloa, East Coast Contemporary Ballet (ECCB) is a Connecticut-based dance company that performs seasonally in Connecticut and New York. Producing entirely original works, the company is committed to reaching diverse audiences and producing art that audiences can relate to and be inspired by. In 2021 ECCB premiered their first original full-length contemporary ballet set entirely to the music of Ernesto Lecuona and in the summer of the same year founded the Fairfield County Dance Festival in partnership with Thomas Ortiz Dance, offering free summer dance performances throughout Fairfield County. They have also been invited to perform in the Newport Dance Festival, Stamford Block Party, and Stamford Dances Downtown. Collaboration is another core value of the company, and ECCB has had the pleasure to collaborate with music artists such as Nathan Hasselby and Latin Grammy-award winner Pedro Giraudo, with fellow dance companies, and with organizations such as the Norwalk Symphony Orchestra, MoCA CT, Norwalk Art Space, Darien Arts Center, Ballet School of Stamford, and Fairfield Museum and History Center.
