La espina que quiso ser flor, o la flor que soñó con ser bailaora

Olga Pericet is a constant in flamenco as well as in Danza Española while also being one of the most courageous innovators in her genres. With technical virtuosity, she develops her very own idiosyncratic harmonic and precise style, lending a rarely seen plasticity to dance. With her new solo, she refines her own stylistic mix bearing traces of classical ballet and contemporary dance. At the same time, the métier of the flamenco dancer is put on the test bench. From memories, painful and tenderly dreamed ones alike, Olga Pericet, known to many from company Chanta la Mui, develops an intimate narrative: It veers between masculine and feminine appearance, between humour and drama, tackling nothing less than human existence. At the same time poetic and powerful, possible paths of life emerge, as promised in the title: About a thorn that wants to be a blossom or the blossom that dreamed about being a dancer.
