A flamenco without frills, a visceral encounter between the raw melody and the dance. The cante and the saxophone evoke the body, which slides between the most traditional flamenco and the most contemporary and avant-garde dance.

Antonio Lizana and Eduardo Guerrero, solos, dance and melodies, establishing a spontaneous dialogue, without plot lines or linear progressions, working with space, creating new atmospheres each time, involving the viewer as an active part of the piece, of the environment, of music and dance.

Eduardo Guerrero. Flamenco dancer

Eduardo Guerrero has been part of the companies of Eva Yerbabuena, Aida Gómez, Rocío Molina, Javier Latorre, and Rafael Aguilar, among others, touring around the world and participating in highly prestigious events. As of 2011, he began to tour with his own shows: De Dolores

Guerrero’s performances/works include De Dolores (2011), Las Minas (2012), Return (2013), El Alley of Sins (2014), Desplante (2015), Guerrero (2016), A Solo Piece for a Flamenco Dancer (2016), Faro (2017), Sombra Efímera (2018), Sombra Efímera II (2019), and his latest and most transgressive piece “Under the Feet,” which premiered at the Villamarta Theater. With these creations, Guerrero participates in the most important events surprising and exciting critics and audiences.

It is the moment of this great dancer who, with current aesthetics, a refined technique and talent, a deep knowledge of the essence of flamenco, and his enormous vital force, has positioned himself among the great names of international dance.
