After watching The Flamenco Show

 I missed the premier, so I went to see at the second evening. 
The Flamenco Show.
The new show of Compas Company.
Dancers: Mijal Natan,  Ayelet Shachar, Moran Ron, Yaeli Zeituni and Maya Shani Palenbaum.
Guitars/singers (yeah, they both do both things): Shuky Shveiky and Ofir Atar
Palmas: Yael Tuchfeld

Also on stage: Goodwolf on keyboard + effects by Talya Yona Kliger


The show starts with a moment from the poster of it - all the dancers with the back to the audience with red fabrics from them on a big part of stage. It was a mix between farruca and rumba. A part of farruca, a part of rumba, back to farruca and back to rumba. The fabrics are fabrics that conacted to waist of dancers, not skirts. There is a lot of playing with it until they leave it on stage. They have pants under it, so a big part of it is dancing with pants. It goes very well with farruca, even if the dancers (like in this case) are women. 

After this part was a short musical thing. All dancers changed very fast their clothes and got back. Dresses with many colors that remind (but not the same) like a show they had before of Clasico Español. The flamenco shoes has been changed for ballet shoes. They had castanets this time. Alegria de Cadiz. The music was flamenco with effect, the dancing was more for Escuela Bolera. My eyes over the points of Yaeli.... 


Third part - once again a short musical part. All dancers came back to stage, flamenco shoes and dresses which are more traditional to flamenco. I loved the designs and colors as much as I loved the dance. This time it was a mix of siguiryia and guajira. After a while it was a dance for trio - Mijal, Ayelet and Moran. They had three matching fans to dance with at the guajira parts. 

One more short musical part. All dancers got back to the short finale with some different dresses. They started on chairs. Got up later on. 

It was very impressive at every visual thing. They danced like it's easy, but it wasn;t easy at all. And I have no idea how did they change their clothes so fast....
