Medea

A couple in love choses passion as a mean to develop their relationship, what leads them to hostility, despair and loneliness.

Segunda piel consists of three sonatas that represent a journey through my life. The first depicts the vigour of youth, the early years of a dancer striving for success. The second expresses the passage of time and the constant process of learning. In the third, I show the dancer’s maturity, experience, knowledge, and personal and artistic evolution. My story is made up of experiences and feelings. All the changes I have undergone throughout my life are etched on my skin, and they are what make me who I am.

Miguel Ángel Corbacho

The muleteer is an eternal traveller, a wanderer who traverses the roads, leaving the imprint of his passage behind. He carries not only loads, but also stories, scents and memories, immersing himself in the traditions and unique character of every place he passes through. In this constant coming and going, in this communion with the road and the land, he finds the true meaning of his existence.

Eduardo Martínez

The main inspiration is the work of Antonio José Martínez Palacios, in this case a rondo. I have titled it En algún lugar because this piece seeks to pay respectful homage to his legacy and the mark he has left on the music and culture of this country. In a way, it questions where his legacy and his work stand today; whether they receive the recognition they deserve. I believe he is being unjustly forgotten; just like his body, because he was shot and is buried in a mass grave. 

Marco Flores

The 1920s. A young woman marries a widower with four children. Her advanced ideas are frown upon by society and she will have to deal with all sorts of comments. However, a breath of fresh air will appear in her life as she finds true love.

The shapes, movements and lines of this choreography caress the notes once composed by Ravel, blending the purest classical Spanish style with the essence of flamenco dance. The Art Nouveau-inspired set, featuring mirrors that reflect the beautiful silhouettes draped in silk of vibrant hues, contrasts with the austerity of the leather in the men’s costume.

Bolero (Teatro de la Zarzuela, Madrid, 1988)

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.
