Magnetikae
New date
After the gratifying success of El 12 in 2012, La Otra Orilla is back to captivate us with its singular style that is adored by audiences: contemporary flamenco. Myriam Allard, ‘bailaora’, and her long-time accomplice Hedi Graja, ‘cantaor’, accompanied by a pianist and a percussionist, meet in a world that is as extravagant as it is unreal. Magnetikae is a dance that evokes blazing heat woven with the polar cold of a glacier with a magnetic pull. With gestural interpretation that is rich in contrasts and dissonances comes the shock of extremes that reveals the tropes of uprooting and exile. A tale of flamenco on an ice floe, a work that questions the landscapes that lie within each one of us, delivered with remarkable poetry.
