Zorongo Flamenco Dance Theatre

  • Marine Village Hall 121 Judd Street Marine on Saint Croix, MN, 55047 United States (map)

Zorongo Flamenco Dance Theatre is celebrating its 40th anniversary season. Founded in 1982 by Susana di Palma, Zorongo was the first dance studio in the Twin Cities dedicated solely to the art of flamenco. It is now the largest flamenco studio in the Upper Midwest. 

Flamenco is an artistic articulation of human suffering, joy, and longings. Flamenco, distinguished by its use of complex, percussive rhythmic patterns (including clapping, finger snapping, and footwork) and non-Western scales and melisma, are evidence of Roma's wanderings through West Asia and the Middle East. In performance, a dynamic relationship between dancers and musicians is established, expressing the deep, emotive power (Duende) at the heart of flamenco.

Zorongo's mission is to draw people of diverse backgrounds close to the power and passion of flamenco, and thrilled to bring the soul of Spain to Marine Candlelight Series' stage.
