National Institute of Flamenco & the NHCC present Manuel Liñán y Compañía in Muerta de Amor.
Spanish National Dance prize winner Manuel Liñán brings his brand new work to the U.S. for the first time. Muerta de Amor creates a space where desires nourished by past longings coexist and feelings can be reclaimed. In this new creation, Manuel Liñán seeks sustenance through emotion and flesh, a journey inviting him to discover humanity’s need for connection, the closeness between bodies, what drives them, and their consequences. Featuring 12 amazing artists on stage, the performance guides us through a choreographic passage, with the essence of copla, aiming at different atmospheres: desire, fantasy, provocation… needs arising from our own intimacy, from our bodies, sustaining our vital energy.
“The emphasis on invoking these emotional fields, provoked by relationships, keeps alive a constant desire, reflected in my dance. P.S. Fall in love, friend, you’ll dance better.” – Manuel Liñán
