Flamenco-Rock-Andaluz emerges from personal and collective memory, transforming the sounds of Andalusian rock into pure choreographic movement. This contemporary production opens up a new dimension on stage, where tradition and the avant-garde converge in a flamenco suite that redefines the boundaries of the genre.
Guided by the vision of an exclusively female artistic team, the production renews, with its own distinctive rhythm, the poetry and rebellious spirit that shaped the soundtrack of an entire generation.
Medea, a witch, magician, descendent of Helios, betrayes her father and her race, killing her brother and helping the Greek adventurer Jason, who she loves, to get the Golden Fleece.
Fugitives from the pursuit of Medea´s father, she and Jason live with their two children in Corinto, where the old Creonte is king. Creonte has an only beautiful daughter, Creusa, who is offered to be the wife of Jason. He agrees to marry her and disavows Medea. To Medea, eaten up with jealousy, there can be no justice, only a raging revenge. Here begins the long night of Medea.
