Vibrant performance - Excellent show. Vibrant fun music and dance. Highly recommend. Get there 15 minutes early for seating. Highly recommend the bar for drinks and a show.

A great intro flamenco performance - Was a good performance in a small theatre, and much better priced than some of the other options online. We got what we paid for and were very happy to tick it off the bucket list, 40mins was the perfect amount of time for us. If you wanted an in-depth look this might not be the show for you, but if you just want a taste I'm happy to recommend.
A few reviews mentioned them pushing heavily for tips, they did ask, but definitely were not too pushy for them. Also, I would greatly advise arriving the 20mins early as the tickets recommend so you can get the best seats.

Do this! - Intimate and dazzling, well worth the money. And dinner first (or after) at Plaza Real, just a few steps away, made a perfect evening

Dissapointed overall, despite the casts efforts. - Somewhat dissapointed overall 😒 by the 18h30 show tonight on the 8th of Feb 2024. Yes, the guitarist was accomplished, the singer enjoyable, the experienced female dancer technically proficient and full of energy, and the male dancer not without intermediate-level footwork skill.
Nevertheless, the show lacked overall in entertainment value, variety, and direction.
With only four performers on stage and zero costume or lighting changes it was up to the female dancer to carry 80% of the entertainment burden for most of the 40-minute-long show. Not even famous pop stars or headline acts can do that without zero supportong cast, back-up dancers, and/or costume or lighting changes. It's just an unreasonable expectation.
When catching a flamenco show in Barcelona, albeit in n an intimate venue with only four performers, I expect to be blown-away by the experience.

5 Days in Barcelona - The show was disappointing. It was only for 30 minutes.
We had flamenco show experiences in Sevilla, Granda...which we couldn't forget since years.
This one was weak and careless in dressing and decoration.

Disappointing. - I guess you get what you pay for. Small theater with raised stage. Seats are not below stage so patrons cannot see the feet of the dancers! The foot work is what flamenco is all about. Costumes cheap and not at all traditional. Very disappointing

Don’t bother - Disappointed, the guitarist was excellent but the dancers didn’t meet expectations, boring amateur and not pleasant.
