What do the media critics say about
Alborada Spanish Dance Theatre?

“Awhirl in drama and color… a two-hour display of impassioned footwork…..” - New York Times, Tammy La Gorce

“If the company is known for something besides its flair for drama, it may be its workmanlike commitment to teaching New Jersey audiences about Spanish culture and the history of its dance.” - New York Times

“The Alborada Spanish Dance Theatre is known for their theatricality. That means, expect theatre, dancing on a greater scale, a story line running throughout, keeping you riveted until the end.” - Flamenco Buzz, La Gata

“The traditional and the fusion and the chemistry and camaraderie between the performers were warmly evident (Fuego).”
“Eva Lucena and Lisa Botalico stole the show with their comedic Tangos por Chufla.” - Flamenco Buzz, La Gata

 “Great excitement”(The Sephardic Connection)…. - The Star-Ledger, Robert Johnson

“Mesmerizing”…..”Flamboyant personalities lit the stage”…. “The Argentinean tangos duets were seductively torrid.” (Pasíon)… - The Star-Ledger, Robert Johnson

 “….a smolder, a slow burn, gentle warmth to raging flames”…“Flamenco of the finest quality….”(Pasíon), The Asbury Park Press, Karyn Collins

 “If you think McCarter Theatre is the only possible venue for first-class dance events, this is a good opportunity to broaden your horizons. Last year this event (Alborada at Richard Marasco Theater) attracted more than 700 people.” - US I Newspaper,
