Ayiti Bèl Nanm — AYITI BÈL NANM
Two performers in luminous costumes on the blue-lit stage of the Ziff Ballet Opera House during Ayiti Bèl Nanm

The soul of Haiti lit up the Arsht Center.

On August 15, 2026, Ayiti Bèl Nanm took the stage of the Ziff Ballet Opera House before a full house — a luminous fusion of storytelling, dance, and music that the press called “quite simply great art.” Thank you to everyone who stood with us.

On Stage · August 15, 2026

A homecoming, in light and sound.

Created by emblematic figures of Haitian theater and music — including the legendary Carole Demesmin — the evening was a powerful return to the source. It awakened a heritage of pride, resilience, and audacious creativity.

Our flagship production Ayiti Bèl Nanm took the spotlight at the Adrienne Arsht Center — where the spirit and richness of Haitian culture met the grandeur of the Ziff Ballet Opera House.

Audiences of every background were moved by vibrant color, raw sound, and the unmistakable emotion of Haitian art. It was a night of communion — hearts raced, tears fell, and the very essence of the Haitian soul shone through.

Haitian artists fused music, theater, and breathtaking dance into a spectacle of exceptional beauty and power. Thank you for making it a triumph.
