Coal & Geraniums
Join us for an enchanting evening as present Coal & Geraniums, a breathtaking Flamenco performance that beautifully intertwines the themes of struggle and joy.
This two-part show takes you on an emotional journey through the powerful narratives of Flamenco, showcasing its profound ability to echo the human experience.
​
Part One: Beneath the earth, life was harsh and danger never ceased. In this unforgiving world, where darkness and sacrifice intertwined, a cry of survival was forged. Not a song of celebration, but a warning—fighting against the unseen, resisting the weight of the unknown. Feel the raw emotion of Flamenco as the artists express the struggles and challenges of people living in the mining areas.
Part Two: After darkness comes light, turning suffering into hope and transitioning into a vibrant celebration. Joyous dances and spirited performances communicate resilience and the renewal of the soul, highlighting Flamenco's dynamic adaptability, shifting from shadow to light.
