Renowned Flamenco Troupe to Perform in Upper Keys

ISLAMORADA, Florida Keys – Clarita Filgueiras brings her internationally acclaimed Flamenco dance company, Flamenco Puro, to the Coral Shores High School Performing Arts Center on Tuesday, Feb. 3, at 8 p.m. as part of ICE’s Upper Keys Concert Series.

For the past 25 years, Filgueiras has performed throughout the United States, Latin America, and Europe appearing in prominent theaters, nightclubs, and on television. Her performing credits include dancing with the Gypsy Kings as soloist and performing with Placido Domingo.

For several years, she was lead dancer, soloist and instructor for the New York City/Madrid-based dance company Carlota Santana-Flamenco Vivo, working with an all Spanish troupe.  The Naples News has called Filguieras the “Keeper of Flamenco.”

“Clarita and her dance company bring power and passion to Southern Spain’s Flamenco dance,” said David Feder, president of ICE. “Whether you’re a connoisseur of Flamenco or just a fan of great music, dance and song, Flamenco Puro will deliver a spellbinding, unforgettable performance.”

The performance will feature three dancers, a guitarist/singer and a percussionist. Tickets are $30 at the door and $25 in advance at Upper Keys TIB Bank branches and the Key Largo and Islamorada Chambers of Commerce.
