The company La Otra Orilla (“the other shore”) was born in Montreal in 2006, through the collaboration of its two artistic directors, Myriam Allard and Hedi Graja. While both have immersed themselves in the technique and spirit of flamenco during their extensive time in Andalusia, their signature style is decidedly contemporary and eclectic. Poetic and often infused with humour, their works blend dance, singing, music, and theatre in unexpected ways.
La Otra Orilla is an audacious, unique voice, committed to making flamenco resonate, with its ancient echoes relentlessly answering the calls of the present.
