Flamenco Dinner Theater at El Cid, the Los Angeles landmark that’s an authentically
replicated 16th century Spanish Tavern presenting world-class
flamenco for over 50 years. The iconic El Cid flamenco shows are a must-see filled with dynamic rhythms from internationally and
locally recognized artists performing the classic style of pure flamenco
dance and live music in an environment reminiscent of its Spanish Andalusian
heritage.

US and Canada.

Fri Jan 10 and 24 – Marcela

Sun Jan 12; Fri Jan 31 – TBD

Sun Jan 19 - Flamenco Bravo

Juan Talavera, the critically
acclaimed and noted flamenco dancer, choreographer, instructor, company
director, actor, and one of the original owners of El Cid, will be joined by
dancers Daniel Andres, Claudia de la Cruz, Emilio Dominguez, Rosal Ortega; singer Antonio
de Jerez; guitarist Andres Vadin;
percussionist Gerardo Morales; and
special guest artist Oscar Valero,
internationally known flamenco dancer and choreographer direct from Spain.

Sun Jan 26 – Noche En Triana

Noche
en Triana features
Antonio Triana and special guests. The cuadro flamenco forms on stage against a
backdrop of drumming handclaps, a voice moans the cante jondo, that pure
essence of Andalusian song. Dancers strike the tablao with thundering footwork.
Tension mounts as the performers unleash their fiery improvisations to the
compelling rhythms of the guitar. This is the native art of Triana, where
flamenco has a long tradition, where rhythm is life.
