Paula Comitre's Company. "Cuerpo Nombrado" (Named Body)

Paula Comitre's Company. "Cuerpo Nombrado" (Named Body) Kike Garp

Cuerpo Nombrado is a dance suite, an alternation of different dances, united by the common tonality and Paula Comitre’s graceful way of performing. The bailaora's new production involves a moving reflection on the intricacies and the potential of the sensitivity of the human body as a means of transmission, as well as the way it has its own language. To illustrate this she gives us a tour of the different forms of flamenco supported by two of the fundamental pillars of this art: cante (singing) and guitar. These three disciplines come into play to create a personal atmosphere that will make the viewer live and perceive the different sensations that this language evokes.


The dancer performs on a completely open stage; there is nothing to distract from Paula's dance: no decoration, no additional elements. All attention is focused on the dance, on its character, its form, its dynamics. And the dance breathes freely and easily, the limits are pushed back and the action unfolds as if it were outside the walls of the theater. All the changes and transformations take place in front of the audience. It is just a female dancer on an open stage. Paula will be accompanied by Juan Campallo (guitar) and Miguel Ortega (singer).

Paula Comitre is one of the greatest talents in the world of contemporary flamenco. She was born in Seville in 1994. She began her dance studies at the age of 3, and at 8 she entered the Professional Dance Conservatory in Seville. In 2012 she gained her degree specialising in Flamenco Dance and became part of the Andalusian Dance Center (CAD). Since then, she has been part of several leading dance companies in Spain, such as the Ballet Flamenco de Andalucía under the direction of Rafaela Carrasco, the David Coria Danza Company. Her first solo show, Cámara abierta, successfully premiered, at the XXIV Festival de Jerez, obtaining special recognition from the critics and receiving the Best Newcomer Award. In March 2020 she worked at the Garlochí flamenco tablao in Tokyo.

She is a stylish, elegant flamenco dancer of a very high level, graceful and giving all to her art. Her acting reflects a great personality with tremendous energy and sensitivity.
