RDA’s DRINK & DANCE: FIZZY FLAMENCO

Irvington, NY – A Palo Seco Flamenco Company, under the visionary direction of founder and choreographer Rebeca Tomas (resident of Tarrytown, NY), is proud to announce the 2025 production of FIERAS, an electrifying new flamenco production debuting Thursday, May 22 at 7pm at the historic Irvington Town Hall Theater.

FIERAS is a visceral and unapologetic exploration of feminine strength, instinct, and resilience. “Fiera,” a Spanish and, more specifically, Flamenco expression, refers to a fierce female energy full of power and force. This energy of rising up and enduring in the face of adversity is infused throughout the work as it examines, with a respectful and delicate eye, the issue of Domestic Violence in our society. Through a contemporary flamenco lens, Tomas and her ensemble delve into the primal and poetic forces that drive the feminine spirit—raw, unfiltered, and unbound. An original production directed by Rebeca Tomas, the production is inspired by stories of survivors of Domestic Violence. Audiences can expect a riveting blend of traditional flamenco music and dance with bold, theatrical elements that challenge expectations and stir the soul.

Cast members include Singers Barbara Martinez, Juan Pedro Gimenez, and Olyda Ola; Violinist Tania Mesa; Guitarist Ricardo Sanchez; Percussionist Jeremy Smith; Dancers Elisabet Torras, Laura Peralta, and Rebeca Tomas.
