Description
A bold, multi-sensory theatrical work by Omonike Akinyemi blending flamenco, film, and surreal humor
LOS ANGELES, CA ā Image Quilt Dance Theater announces upcoming performances of Sketches from the Edge of Flamenco, a theatrical work written and directed by Omonike Akinyemi, two-time New York Foundation for the Arts Fellow, Fulbright Scholar, and winner of the 2026 Shaping the Future Award. The production arrives in Los Angeles following a successful New York City premiere.
Blending live performance, flamenco, theater, film, and surreal humor, Sketches from the Edge of Flamenco unfolds through a series of emotionally charged vignettes exploring identity, power, desire, and cultural dissonance. Flamenco is treated not as tradition alone, but as a volatile, contemporary language featuring Ballet Hispanico alumni Omonike Akinyemi and Angelica Mondol ViaƱa, alongside avant-garde live drumming by percussionist Mounanou Badila..
