Theatre Flamenco of San Francisco Presents " Un Mundo Sin Tiempo " ( A Time Less World )
Thursday, February 8, 2024 -- Sunday, February 11, 2024, 1900 - 1615
In the company's triumphant return following the tremendous success of the last performance, Artistic Director Carola Zertuche blends flamenco with live electronic music, trumpet and electric guitar. All musical compositions have been written expressly for this show. The world-renowned Spanish guitarist, Juani De La Isla, will lead the musical journey, accompanied by Diego Amador Hijo, a highly respected flamenco artist. The ensemble includes flamenco dancer Adrian Santana from Malaga, guest modern dancer and choreographer Nol Simonse, California-based electronic musician Pascual Martinz, with Roberto Aguilar on electric guitar, Mario Silva on trumpet and flamenco dancers Claudia Delveze and Lea Kobeli.
Come travel the world throughUn Mundo sin Tiempo! This production is inspired by Zertuche's 2021 trip to Jordan during a time of COVID restrictions. She describes the transformative experience, saying, "Visiting the Wadi Rum Desert, especially, was one of the most incredible experiences of my life: peaceful energy surrounded me like an inexplicable force. I felt the sensation - with the light, the endless red sand, the stars clear in the night sky - that time had ceased to exist, that everything was perfect, that anything could happen. Flamenco, to me, also has that inexplicable energy, and I'd like the audience to feel those same emotions, even if just for the hour and 15 minutes of the show. And in these challenging times that the Palestinian lands are going through, how can we rediscover that peaceful energy that surrounds those lands with its inexplicable force? I dedicate this show to all those innocent people and children who have lost their lives in their own land."
