November
17th, 2007
7:30 pm and 9:00 pm
Dancers:
La Tania, Sandra Gabas, Marina Elana
Singer: Roberto Zamora
Guitarist: Ricardo Diaz
Come
experience the mastery of flamenco dancer La Tania in an intimate
setting reminescent of the private flamenco fiestas which took
place in "ventas" (roadside taverns) while she takes
you on a flamenco journey through the many different "palos"
flamenco styles. The evening will include flamenco dance, song
and guitar and will also serve as a venue to give upcoming dancers
in the Bay Area an opportunity to bring their art to the stage.
La
Tania is an internationally acclaimed dancer/choreographer and
teacher. After growing up in Sevilla, Spain, she started her
own company in Madrid in 1991, and has toured the world performing
and teaching ever since. Currently she is based in San Francisco
where she teaches and develops her work as a choreographer.
She has received many awards such as the Guggenheim Fellowship,
the Irvine Fellowship in Dance, and the National Endowment for
the Arts Fellowship. To her, flamenco is a way of life, something
woven into one's living. She wants to share this vision with
the community by giving a taste of her heritage to those who
have not had the opportunity to experience this art form.
"La
Tania is an articulate, intelligent master at what she does"
