Co-commissioned by Lincoln Center for the Performing Arts

English with an Accent is an original musical production of dance-theater, helmed by Migguel Anggelo and a company of 10 dancers. This production at Lincoln Center—which celebrates the project’s album release—follows an immigrant caterpillar's arrival in New York City with hopes of becoming a butterfly. It explores the attainability of the American dream through themes of freedom, safety, and self-worth. Directed, choreographed and developed by Avihai Haham, the production boasts original music and lyrics composed by Migguel Anggelo and his longtime collaborator and music director Jaime Lozano.
