company description

Maria Serrano: Maria del Mar Serrano Rebollo, "Maria Serrano", was born in Seville (Spain). From her earliest childhood on she was taught flamenco by Seville's best and most famous flamenco teachers. José Galván, Los Gitanillos de Bronce, Juan Manuel, Farruco, to name just a few, very soon recognised her sensitivity and power. Very soon she travelled half the world with famous ensembles such as Meme Menjibar, Javier Barón, Carmen y Carmelilla Montoya, Antonio "El Pipa". In 1993 André Heller chose her for his production "Magneten" and in that show she enchanted the audience in Germany, Austria and Switzerland for six months. The Austrian "NEWS" even named her the "Voodoo Queen" of flamenco. In the years 1995, 1996 and 1997 Maria Serrano was touring all over Europe. Finally, she was on tour with the production "Mi CARMEN Flamenca" which had its première in November 1998 at the German Opera in Berlin. The choreographer of "Carmen" as well as of "RITMO Flamenco Cubano" was her good friend Manolo Marín, one of the most renowned in his field. For "RITMO", which had its premiere at the Bienal de Arte Flamenco in Seville in September 2000, Maria Serrano set up her own company for the first time. Tours were following throughout Germany, Austria and Switzerland. Further tours are being prepared through Europe, Japan and the United States. With her new programme "Entre Flamencos" (among flamencos) Maria Serrano now makes her old dream come true: dancing exclusively with males.
