PRESS RELEASE/GALLOWAY, N.J. – Flamenco Vivo, America’s premier Spanish dance company, will perform 7:30 p.m. Feb. 18 at the Stockton Performing Arts Center.

Tickets are $32 with discounts for seniors, children and groups.

Flamenco Vivo Carlota Santana, builds bridges between cultures using the universal spirit of Flamenco. Tablao Flamenco is a program that captures the spirit of Spain’s flamenco cafes.

Named after the wooden floor used by a bailaor (dancer), tablao performances are highly virtuosic and improvisational, offering audiences a rare opportunity to watch the dynamic interplay between song and dance.

Originally known as cafés cantantes – which became popular during the mid-nineteenth century in Spain – tablaos are still among the most popular places to see flamenco today.
