Flamenco Rosario
Today, Vancouver’s premier flamenco company, Flamenco Rosario, perform as part of The Dance Centre’s ongoing Discover Dance! program. Founded in 1989 under the direction of Rosario Ancer and Victor Kolstee, Flamenco Rosario develops flamenco dance and music in both traditional and contemporary styles through performances, workshops and professional training across Vancouver. In addition to the performing company, Flamenco Rosario presents the ongoing Cuadro Flamenco series featuring traditional dance styles, and hosts the popular Vancouver International Flamenco Festival in the fall, which features local, national and international guest artists. The hour-long performance (also featuring classical Indian dance company Mandala Arts and Culture performing in the traditional bharatanatyam style) begins at twelve noon, with tickets starting at $8.

Caribana is Our Stage
Themes of becoming, shaping from and returning to are central to Caribbean performance arts. As one of these art forms, Carnival is a nuanced performance art practice rooted in the cultural memory of the lives of Caribbean peoples throughout Canada and the diaspora. But whose story is told (or not told) and in what context? The telling or omission of stories can be traced to a lack of understanding of the complexity of the Caribbean and its Carnival – a performance tradition that is more than the mass commodification, sexuality and “loud music” we often associate it with.
