Flamenco Festival London
Sadler’s Wells presents two weeks of top flight flamenco from some of the world’s best dancers, singers and musicians.
An annual feature of the international dance calendar, the Flamenco Festival brings the world’s greatest flamenco talents to the capital for two very special weeks. This year’s highlights include Antonio Gades Company performing Fuenteovejuna, an Andalusian folk-dance-drama boasting stunning ensemble sequences, beautiful period costumes and jaw-dropping dance. Another unmissable show comes in the form Rafael Amargo’s Poet in New York. Previously nominated for an Olivier Award for his take on Zorro, rebel of the Flamenco world, Amargo’s Poet in New York is a multimedia extravaganza inspired by Lorca that has wowed international critics and been described as “in a class by itself” (New York Times).
