Ti-me-ta-ble

The contemporary flamenco dancing show ‘Ti-me-ta-ble’ is performed in Madrid. The show by bailaores Marco Vargas and Chloé Brûlé, winner of the most innovative award at Seville’s past Bienal de Flamenco, reaches the Teatro Bellas Artes (Fine Arts Theater) in the Spanish capital on November 4th and 5th. In both performances, which are part of the Andalucía a Escena 2009 Series, they will stage a show which is about “a woman and a man plunged in a spiral of time”. Situated between them is ‘Crono’, played by cantaor Juan José Amador. The cast is completed with pianist Diego Amador and percussionist Diego Amador Jr. The lineup also includes Juan Carlos Lérida as choreographer of the piece ‘El tiempo corre, y deprisa’ and guitarist Raúl Cantizano as creator of part of the music. As Vargas explained at the press conference, “the show is one hundred percent flamenco but with a contemporary concept”. And he added that “we’ve always been interested in using flamenco style and taking it a step further. It’s not easy, but it’s natural for us, since we aren’t moved by an intention of innovating, but of telling”. Other shows by the duo stem from that philosophy such as the prior ‘Cuando uno quiere y el otro no’, the street show ‘Las 24’ and the new ‘¿Hacia dónde?’.
