A large company, a tapas dinner, and the costume museum before it
This is flamenco on the big stage rather than in a back room: a large cast, elaborate staging and a run through the traditional palos, including a short flamenco version of Bizet’s Carmen, which is set in Seville and almost never performed here. Dinner comes with it, and the costume museum before it.
The company
A cast with serious careers behind them, on the largest flamenco stage in the city. The scale changes what is possible: where a tablao gives you three people and a wooden floor, this gives you choreography.
Dinner while you watch
A tapas dinner of Andalusian cooking, served at your table during the performance. You eat and watch rather than doing one and then the other.
And the costume museum
Half an hour before the show, an exhibition on the history of the flamenco dress: how it evolved, and why it is the only regional dress in Spain that changes with fashion every year. It is included, and most people would not have thought to go.

Flamenco on a large stage
Practical questions about the show, useful background before you travel.
Scale. A tablao is three or four artists a few metres away in a small room; this is a full company on a large stage with staging and lighting. Neither is more authentic; they are different evenings.
The only regional costume in Spain that follows fashion: the shape, the sleeves and the number of ruffles change every year, and the museum included here traces it from the 19th century to now.
Because it is set in Seville, in the tobacco factory that is now the university, and because almost nobody stages it here. A short flamenco adaptation of it is an unusual thing to see in its own city.
No. The tapas dinner comes with the show, so arrive hungry and use the half hour beforehand for the museum.
