May 7 | A Night to Remember
Join us for a powerful and inspiring evening at the Hobby Center for the Performing Arts, where the universal language of dance becomes a voice for those who cannot speak. Through movement, rhythm, and passion, we unite to stand against human trafficking and fight for freedom.
This extraordinary event will feature breathtaking performances by Undebel Flamenco, directed by Mercy Renteria, blending flamenco jazz, Indian, Brazilian, and opera into a mesmerizing and emotionally charged production. We are honored to welcome the exclusive appearance of Lydia Huang, founder of Mavericks for Children’s Rights, in this cultural celebration of resilience and hope.
Accompanied by the soul-stirring melodies of a full orchestra by Echo, this production is more than a performance—it is a call to action. All proceeds will directly support non-profit organizations, including RedM and The Houston 20, dedicated to ending human trafficking and supporting survivors.
