The space is a very charming place, located next to the Cathedral of Seville and at the foot of the Giralda. A very intimate theater where you will be very close to the show. We love that the public and the artists are in contact and can have an unforgettable experience. That is why you and your people will sit so close to the artists and you will be able to contemplate, just one or two meters away, how they are able to put into practice the flamenco art and the feeling that they carry inside.
