To point out the stomping feet and fiery passion is merely brushing the surface of flamenco dance. Flamenco dance, as one-third of the quintessential Spanish phenomenon of flamenco, has an extensive historical background that parallels the cultural development of Spain.

The role of the flamenco dancer is to physically interpret the words, which often express the great lament of the persecuted ethnicities of flamenco’s history, with light, graceful arm movements that contrast the reverberating steps as feet drill into the floor with a bewildering intensity. Tickets are available at the theater box office.
