Deseo is a full evening length work, using Flamenco music and dance as a language to tell the iconic story of one of the most critically acclaimed plays of the 20th Century. With some of the most engaging characters in American Theatre, Tennessee Williams' sensuous and emotional work centers around troubled former schoolteacher Blanche DuBois, who leaves small-town Mississippi and moves in with her sister, Stella Kowalski, and her husband, Stanley, in New Orleans. Blanche's flirtatious Southern-belle presence causes problems for Stella and Stanley, who already have a volatile relationship. This sets the stage for intense drama, as each of the characters fights his or her demons and struggles to escape the world around them, in a violent storm of frustrated dreams, poetry, love, passion, illusion and cruelty.

Siudy Garrido is one of the most exciting international flamenco performers today. Latin Grammy-nominated with an unmistakable virtuosity, Garrido and company blend contemporary influences and traditional elements over original flamenco compositions.

It departs from traditional flamenco by blending non-traditional instruments such as jazz guitar, piano, flute and drums into a contemporary vision of the art form. Enjoy 80 minutes of dance-theater showcasing vivid and colorful costumes, award-winning choreography and astoundingly percussive footwork. Siudy Garrido and her troupe transport the audience to an exotic world of Spanish artistry. It’s a must-see spectacular!
