Step into María and Antonio's story.
You have walked for hours. You have seen the Cathedral, the Alcázar, the square. All of it real, and all of it from the outside.
This is the other thing: one hour in Triana, with fourteen people, inside a story from 1850.
What happens, in order
You dress for it.
In what the cigarreras of Triana wore in 1850. Then a few minutes of breathing, with orange blossom in the air.
You see what was left unresolved.
María meets Antonio again after two years. What she feels she does not say in words: he gives her the tangos, and she answers dancing.
Then it is your turn.
The circle. You can dance, keep the rhythm with your hands, or simply let it carry you. All three count.
It is not a show. It is not a class. There is no stage and no audience. This is how flamenco was before it went up on a stage.
- Dressing as an 1850 cigarrera, accessories included.
- The objects and how they were used: you learn to handle the fan.
- The story of María and Antonio, set in 1850.
- The guitar, the singing and the dancing, and what each one says.
- Taking part at your own pace: dance, keep the beat, or let it carry you.
- Fourteen people maximum. Men are welcome to come along.
Launch price: €35 from 15 September to 15 October, only for those on the waiting list. Otherwise, €65 per person.
“Honestly, this was something else. It’s hard to explain, but in the best possible way. You just have to go and experience it for yourself. […]”
Wellbeing is not the goal. It is the consequence.
Any experience that creates knowledge, belonging and real human contact produces emotional wellbeing straight away. You do not have to chase it: you have to design it.
Sevitonina is built on those three mechanisms, and on archive work: the historical data behind the 1850 Collection comes from the Provincial Historical Archive of Seville.
