Deseo by Ballet Flamenco La Rosa
This event has passed.
Ballet Flamenco de la Rosa brings Deseo, a flamenco adaptation of Tennessee William's iconic play A Streetcar Named Desire, to the Miami-Dade County Auditorium stage on Saturday August 19. This full length work uses Flamenco music and dance to retell the story of troubled former schoolteacher Blanche DuBois, who leaves small-town Mississippi and moves in with her sister, Stella Kowalski, and her husband, Stanley, in New Orleans. Blanche’s flirtatious Southern-belle presence causes problems for Stella and Stanley, who already have a volatile relationship. This sets the stage for intense drama, as each of the characters fights his or her demons and struggles to escape the world around them, in a violent storm of frustrated dreams, poetry, love, passion, illusion and cruelty.
