“I have been to several flemenco shows and although they're similar, they're all slightly different. This show was good; however, I have enjoyed others slightly more. I'm not a fan of the "theatre" venue as opposed to a stage with a more casual floor plan/venue. That said, the solo female singer was phenomenal in this particular show!”
