Spain's national dance company, Ballet Nacional de España, make a welcome return to London as part of Spring Dance at the London Coliseum.

During its 30 years, Ballet Nacional de España has performed in some of the most renowned theatres in the world and received some of the highest accolades including the Medalla de Oro al Mérito en las Bellas Artes, awarded to artistic director Jose Antonio in 2005 by the Spanish Ministry of Culture.

For their performances at the London Coliseum, the company perform two of their best loved works. Dualia was choreographed by two of flamenco's hottest stars Rojo and Rodriguez, and explores the sensuality of looks and caresses through movement and music.

La Leyenda (The Legend) was choreographed by the company's artistic director José Antonio as a tribute to the famous flamenco star Carmen Amaya who died in 1963. The piece portrays images from her life – from the slums of Barcelona to the glamour of performing on the American stage in the 30s and 40s.


About The Coliseum

Until the recent restoration project, no substantial programme of repair has been carried out on this historic London landmark since it first opened its doors in 1904. The London Coliseum, which is London's largest theatre, is cited as being architect Frank Matcham's crowning achievement. In its 100 year history it has played host to many forms of entertainment, including horse races, musicals, variety, cinema and, since 1968, opera.
