«Poeta en Nueva York» by Blanca Li
The collection of poems ‘Poeta en Nueva York’ by Federico García Lorca inspires the show which Blanca Li has directed and choreographed for the annual series ‘Lorca y Granada’. And although she plays on a mixture of styles, the Granada-born dancer - who collaborated on the documentary ‘Morente sueña La Alhambra’ - has given flamenco a prevailing role. For the role of Lorca on stage, the current director of the Centro Andaluz de Danza (Andalusian Dance Center) has Sevillian bailaor Andrés Marín. And cantaoras Carmen Linares and Encarnita Anillo are going to alternatively take care of singing a selection of verses from this emblematic work by Lorca.
