Enjoy an intimate evening of sultry, seductive Gypsy flamenco music and dance when René Heredia and his Flamenco Fantasy Dance Theatre bring the heart and soul of Spanish gypsy flamenco to the Mercury Cafe, complete with colorful costumes, castanets, stomping feet and fiery passion.
The intimate setting of the Mercury Cafe is ideal for artists to perform their highly expressive dances, seemingly an arms length from where guests sip wine at their cozy tables.
This unique performance is featured as part of Denver Arts Week. As a special promotional offer, attendees can take advantage of a buy three, get one free ticket deal.
Before he plays a single note, Maestro Heredia gives a brief history of the origin of each song or dance about to be performed. Dancers then interpret these tales with a blend of light, graceful arm movements, syncopated hand-clapping, powerful, synchronized foot work and individual flare.
Comprised of Denver's best dancers and award-winning guitarist, Artistic Director, and Godfather of Flamenco Maestro René Heredia, their performances convey the mystery, emotion and soul of authentic gypsy flamenco.
Be prepared for an evening of passion, power, music and dance! Olé!

"The guitar playing of René Heredia is in the finest tradition of flamenco, creating a flaming intensity that cannot fail to arouse." Denver Post
Maestro Heredia is a direct descendant of the gitano flamenco puro tradition as passed down to him by generations of his gypsy family. He is credited with bringing flamenco to Colorado and has received numerous awards, including the Governors and Mayors Awards for Excellence in the Arts.
The Flamenco Fantasy Dance Theatre is a 501(c)(3) tax exempt nonprofit organization dedicated to the preservation of the pure Spanish gypsy and Andalusian art of flamenco.
