de Córdoba. Paco
Mora is artistic director, choreographer and performer,
and the cast includes ballerinas Ana Arroyo, Lienz Chang and
Gema Morado, with choreographic input from Igor Yebra, stage
direction by José Icriera and live music by the group
Qúrtuba. The show, entitled “de las tres culturas”

in Madrid.
