"A savvy and Sophisticated choreographer… I dare anyone to take his or her eyes off Omayra Amaya when she is performing the flamenco she was born to dance… a knockout." Debra Cash, The Boston Globe
The title refers to a post-dinner hour when Spaniards like to linger at the table to talk, drink coffee and be together with family and friends. Omayra translates this moment into dance guided by fluent, skillfully balanced choregraphy that develops in waves and wavelets, swelling and subsiding in the choppy seas of human emotions.
Jasmina Wellinghoff of the San Antonio Express in praise of the Performance, "When the lights came on, the entire group of 7 was arranged around a table in complete stillness like a sculpture. Eventually various dialogues, one-on-one encounters and personal dramas developed, the intensity grew, and before we knew it, we held our breath=2 0in constant anticipation and wonder."
La Sobremesa An exciting show full of surprises, with inspiring music and enticing rhythms and choreography that will intensify and rise to a climax taking the audience on a journey not soon forgotten. The show contains traditional and contemporary flamenco music and dance.
