Dranza is an portmanteau of "drama" and "danza" in Spanish. It was created by Oskar Sarasky, a theatre director, Fito Guevara and Chachi Cruz, both dancers. This group of Costa Rican artists developed dranza in New York for a production of Yerma, by Federico Garcia Lorca. It involves the fusion of dance and theater simultaneously. In dance-theater, movement and drama are distinctively separated. Dranza requires the actor-dancer to perform a text as he or she moves on the stage to music.
