Noche Flamenca’s latest creation is an evocative flamenco performance inspired by the powerful imagery of Francisco de Goya. Artistic director Martin Santangelo reimagines the artist’s work through riveting choreography, original music, and expressive storytelling. With vibrant costumes, lighting, and masks designed by Mary Frank, each scene delivers a visceral journey through Goya’s vision.
With guidance from Goya expert Mark MacDonald of The Met, the piece offers fresh interpretations of works like El Quitasol, Perro Semihundido, and Duelo a Garrotazos. Through flamenco’s emotional depth and raw energy, this performance captures the enduring power of Goya’s art and the universal truths it still reveals.
