Storytelling WITH Flamenco air

Storytelling WITH Flamenco air

This performance is the result of fifteen years of stage work, research and creativity through the eyes of a spanish woman. “Stories with Flamenco air” is a different style to tell stories. It is another way to spread stories through Flamenco dance.

"With flamenco air" has five Spanish stories. This show is a travel through Spanish folklore and literature, from Middle Age until contemporary literature. These stories are funny and ironic at a time to speak about different Spanish characters from Spain.

There are many theories about the origin of Flamenco name. Some researchers say that the origin was Arabic.
