Love, passion, humour and drama portrayed through powerful dance, passionate music, and vivid imagery, make this world premiere dance-theatre production an absolute must-see.


Internationally acclaimed flamenco dancer Miguel Tellez is back in Halifax by overwhelming demand. The “Fred Astaire” of flamenco dominates the stage with grace and astonishing sense of rhythm. Miguel will be joined by the popular Haligonian/Madrid-born dancer Maria Osende, whose dance has been described as “spellbinding”. The compelling sounds of the flamenco soul will be provided by the powerful voice of Maria Mezcle, who at only 24, has become one of Spain’s most promising and accomplished singers.  On guitar, adding an authentic Spanish flavour, virtuoso guitarist Jose Vega, as well as the very creative Canadian musician Daniel MacNeil.

 

De España con Amor will be entirely produced and created in Halifax under the award-winning theatrical direction of Anthony Black (2b theatre), projection design by Nick Bottomley.

 

Experience flamenco as you never have before.

 

Second Performance: Ottawa, November 4 at the Canadian Museum of Civilization.
