“There are some dancers – some performers – who are unlike anyone else. Rocío Molina is one of them. She’s flamenco’s wildest radical, punk and glorious, a magnificent dancer whose range takes in the fiery intensity of traditional styles, surreal fantasy and unpredictable humour.” The Independent UK

After her New York City Center debut, the great Mikhail Baryshnikov fell to his knees in homage.

Iconoclastic choreographer and dancer Rocío Molina’s groundbreaking contributions to dance, pushing the boundaries of flamenco, saw her awarded the prestigious Silver Lion at the Venice Dance Biennale in 2022.

Caída del Cielo (Fallen from Heaven) shakes up the traditional guitar, cajón and clapping hands combination with drum kit and electric guitar. Flamenco’s hallmarks – the passion, the proud stance and piercing eye contact – jostle for position with flashes of the avant-garde and the absurd, in a radical celebration of womanhood.

Performed to live music combining original compositions, flamenco and rock, this daring work transforms a traditional dance form into an explosive, theatrical experience.

★★★★★ “Impeccably danced, Molina’s fiercely provocative work is unforgettable. It stops you dead, as the best art should.”

— The Guardian

“One of the best flamenco dancers I’ve ever seen.”

— The New York Times

★★★★★

— The Telegraph
