Flamenco Festival London 09
Ballet Nacional de España
Spain's top dance company returns to the Flamenco Festival with a brand new show featuring choreography from three of flamenco's brightest talents; Fernando Romero, Ángel Rojas and Carlos Rodríguez (founders of Nuevo Ballet Español), and Antonio Canales. Castanets, fans, traditional flamenco 'bata de cola' dresses, effervescent heel-and-toe step combinations, and volcanic shoulder and hip actions - this is flamenco at its very best. Directed by José Antonio.
