Manuel Liñán of Granada has a reputation for stretching traditional Flamenco forms. He can stretch it because his traditions are so strong.
“Viva!” is Flamenco in Drag with Manuel Liñán and six men performing as women. In Spain, Flamenco is a very traditional community, so for Spain this is wild. But the men can really dance. It’s great to feel the joy of being whoever you want to be.
