Sadonna (Miguel Gutierrez) and the Slutinos (John Maria Gutierrez, Alvaro Gonzalez, and Santiago Venegas) provide the bow at the end of the festival, the cherry on top of a full season. Fans of Madonna’s sensational pop hits will recognize the messages of strength and resilience in Sadonna’s slower, bluer renditions. Though comfortingly familiar, the now sad songs rightly reveal the raw vulnerability and beating heart behind these classic hits as we sing farewell to summer.

Miguel Gutierrez is a multidisciplinary dance and music artist. Recent work includes Super Nothing, created through the Randjelović/Stryker Resident Commissioned Artist program at NYLA, and Frankenstein, created for visual artist Avram Finkelstein at Smack Mellon. His work has been presented internationally for over 20 years, most recently at ODC/SF, On the Boards, CAP/UCLA, MCA Chicago, American Dance Festival. He was a selected artist in the 2014 Whitney Biennial, Guggenheim Fellow, United States Artists Fellow, and has received a Foundation for Contemporary Art award, Doris Duke Artist Award, Frankie Award, and four New York Dance and Performance Bessie Awards. His writing has appeared in BOMB, Small Press Traffic’s The Back Room, InDance, SLUTS anthology from Dopamine Press, and more. His podcast, Are You For Sale? examines the ethical entanglement between dancemaking and funding. His two records—SADONNA: The Album and sueño, featuring his original songs—are available on all streaming platforms. He is an Associate Professor of Choreography in UCLA and splits his time between Los Angeles, Brooklyn, San Francisco, and the world.
