The 35th Edition of the Vancouver International Flamenco Festival, with the community partnership of The Vancouver Writers Festival, proudly presents:
Dark Sounds creates a powerful new experience, fusing North American speech with the intensity of flamenco to deliver urgent truths about our cultural and planetary condition. The focus is the dark core of sex, family, love, of being human. The climate crisis. Personal sorrows that accumulate while smoke veils the horizon. Here, guitarist Gareth Owen and dancer Denise Yeo affirm their reputations for responsive, deeply sensitive interpretations of English language poetry.
Palabra Flamenco is a literary flamenco ensemble that weaves English language poetry and storytelling with traditional flamenco. It features artistic director and dance soloist Denise Yeo, musical director and guitarist Gareth Owen, and producer and poet Garth Martens, with special guest poet Jan Zwicky.
With their shows La Palabra en el Tiempo and Fox Woman, the ensemble has toured the Victoria, Vancouver, Winnipeg, and Toronto Fringe Festivals, the Victoria Festival of Authors, and the Victoria Flamenco Festival.
