Description

Las Mujeronas brings together a collective of Flamenco Latinas in Vancouver to explore the impact of immigration on identity, memory, and cultural expression. Performed in both Spanish and English, with select texts translated for accessibility, the work seamlessly fuses flamenco dance, poetry, song, and storytelling to reflect the complex and layered experiences of migration. Drawing on the intercultural roots of flamenco, especially the Ida y Vuelta (going and coming) song forms that travelled between Spain and Latin America, the piece becomes a powerful act of reclaiming voice, space, and belonging. Through rhythm, movement, and lived experience, Las Mujeronas invites audiences into a bold and intimate reimagining of home and heritage.

In the spirit of storytelling, we pause to honour this land's ancient and contemporary narratives. We stand upon the traditional, ancestral, and unceded territories of the xʷməθkʷəy̓əm (Musqueam), Sḵwx̱wú7mesh (Squamish), and səlilwətaɬ (Tsleil-Waututh) Nations.

Just as we celebrate the diverse voices of immigrant and refugee artists, we recognize the First Peoples who have woven this place's first and enduring tales. Their stories are a testament to resilience, creativity, and the power of community. As we come together from many corners of the world, may we always remember, respect, and learn from this land's stories.
