Ensemble Español Celebrates José Greco and His Passionate Progeny

June 14, 2018

José Greco popularized Spanish dance in 1950s and ’60s America through his work onstage and on screen. Ensemble Español Spanish Dance Theater’s American Spanish Dance & Music Festival is honoring the icon in recognition of what would have been his 100th birthday. As part of the tribute, Greco’s three dancing children are reuniting to perform together for the first time since their father’s death in 2000. Also on the program is the premiere of contemporary flamenco choreographer Carlos Rodriguez’s Mar de Fuego (Sea of Fire). June 15–17, North Shore Center for the Performing Arts. ensembleespanol.org.
