Overview
Part of the 2010-2011 MBT Season
Benise and his Emmy Award-winning PBS Nights of Fire cast present a new world music and dance production. Called “the Latin Riverdance,” The Spanish Guitar is an epic tale that integrates live performance with real footage of Benise’s travels across the globe. Follow his passionate journey through the cobblestone streets of old Havana, an Arabian desert, a romantic Venetian masquerade ball, a Flamenco tapas bar and bullring in Spain, and a 2000-year-old Buddhist temple in India.
Benise’s ever-present guitar becomes a treasure chest of inspiration, and his masterful playing evokes the atmospheres of exotic locales. Brilliantly choreographed dance numbers, featuring Flamenco and Broadway performers, dazzling vocals and orchestral pieces on an ever-changing stage accompany the stories as they are released from this magical instrument.
