Luna, Luna, Luna (Moon, Moon, Moon) - Flamenco Fiesta de Santa Fe 2026 Fall

Inspired by Romance de la Luna, Luna, one of the most celebrated poems by Spanish poet Federico García Lorca, this luminous production explores the mystery, beauty, and symbolism of the moon through flamenco dance, music, poetry, and storytelling.

Many audience members may not realize that the famous flamenco polka-dot dress has its roots in this tradition. In Spanish, polka dots are called lunares—“little moons.” According to Roma tradition, circular patterns and reflective decorations were worn to honor the moon and help protect against negative spirits. As families traveled across Andalusia beneath moonlit skies, the moon served as both a guide and a companion. Over time, these “little moons” became one of the most recognizable symbols of flamenco.

For Music Director and Composer Chuscales, born in Granada, Spain, the moon is deeply rooted in Andalusian flamenco heritage. Artistic Director Mina Fajardo, born in Japan, has shaped this production as a poetic journey through moonlight. Together, they have created a work where every dance, song, and poem reflects the many faces of the moon—its beauty, solitude, mystery, imagination, and emotional power.

The evening also includes Lorca-inspired poetry and children’s poetry, celebrating the moon through the eyes of future generations.

Luna, Luna, Luna is a celebration of moonlight, memory, and flamenco tradition—where poetry becomes dance, and the night itself becomes music.
