Innovative Flamenco artist La Tania and the Presidio Theatre present the world premiere of Solaz, a new multimedia flamenco work, inspired by the extraordinary history of the Egyptian Temple of Debod. Built in the second century BCE, the Temple was rescued in the 1960s during the flooding of Nubia, when Egypt was constructing the Aswan Dam. The ancient Temple was cut into pieces and transported to Madrid, where it was reconstructed and now serves as a beacon of cultural survival in the face of global displacement. Solaz combines dance and music with poetic visual imagery, creating a sensory journey evoking personal and universal messages of hope, renewal and impermanence.
