For 25 years, the Flamenco Festival has been a bridge connecting Spain’s most passionate art form and the city that never sleeps. This landmark edition celebrates these deep ties with an incredible two-week lineup of legends and rising stars direct from Spain.
Week one includes the star-studded Gala Flamenca, directed by the critically acclaimed Manuel Liñán, who also performs. Eva Yerbabuena, El Farru, and Juan Tomás de la Molía join the Gala. Week one also includes the Spain National Dance Award 2019 winning duo, Estévez/Paños y Compañía, presenting La Confluencia. This piece highlights the versatility of the male flamenco dancer, as five performers take the audience on a voyage to discover flamenco’s roots.
Week two features Olivier Award winner Sara Baras, a festival fan favorite. She brings Vuela, a choreographic journey in four acts that pays tribute to the great flamenco guitarist Paco de Lucía. Baras directs and performs in this cinematic piece, which features members of her company, Ballet Flamenco Sara Baras, who are also celebrating their 25th anniversary.
