In the wake of the solo challenge presented by his show 'Live', Joaquín Cortés is back with a new company. The artist from Cordoba has selected thirty young bailaores from a casting of around four hundred. He's already got down to work with them, and preparations are underway for the dance production that will follow in the footsteps of 'Live', a show which has already toured the length and breadth of Spain, and which will now be taken to international stages in London, Hong Kong, Lisbon, Tokyo, Vienna and Frankfurt. During the tour he'll make time to present the new company in November in a host of other European capitals. The final performances of 'Live', a show which is also available on DVD, are scheduled for March 2004 in Australia and Asia.
