About

This year the flamenco show “Así Canta Jerez en Navidad” (This is how Jerez sings at Christmas) will have two performances. As it was so well received and popular with the audience last time, there will be two performances on consecutive days, 7 and 8 December at 8.30pm at Villamarta Theatre. This year the show is named after one of the new songs, “Mi Dios gitano” (My Gypsy God), a bulerías church song from Jerez. Presenting the best of their repertoire, combined with new features and songs.
Directed by Luis de Perikin, the show includes many important artists: singers Maloko Soto, Fania Zarzana, Joselete Mushogitano, Dolores de Perikin, Manuel de Cantarote, Rocío Valencia, José de la Melchora, Manuela de Perikin, Nono de Perokon, La Junkera, Antonia Pantoja, Sandra Zarzana, Ana Parrilla, Manuela Parrilla, La Junkerita; guitarists Fernando de la Morena, Nono Jero, Madriles Jero; and rhythm: Curro Santos, Juan Digo Valencia, Manuel Cantarote, Juan Diego Valencia Jr and Rafael Fernández.
