A Night of Flamenco
Friday night, February 23, the Association Escapade presented a night of flamenco on the quay in Gustavia. The dancers in their simple, but elegant, dresses evoked images of the gypsies of southern Spain dancing flamenco around the campfire in the dark of the night. There were no taps on the shoes, no elaborate dresses, no fans and no castanets as is usually found in many professional flamenco dance troupes. But the traditional drama and sensuality of the dance and the music were in full force.
