For eight seasons, from 2018 through 2024, Julia Chacón Flamenco Theater presented Flamenco Intimo at Scottsdale Center for the Performing Arts. Flamenco was the perfect fit for the intimate Stage 2, with bistro tables in the front, and theater seating in the back. There was not a bad seat in the house! To celebrate our 10th Anniversary of appearing on Scottsdale Arts’ stages, JCFT returns to the Virgina G. Piper Theatre, our first stage with Scottsdale Arts. Prior to Flamenco Intimo, JCFT performed three years in the Live & Local series, a lineup featuring fresh Arizona talent in a summer main stage series. From 2015 to 2017 JCFT sold out the Virginia G. Piper Theatre, laying the groundwork for the Flamenco Intimo series.

This year, Julia Chacon Flamenco Theatre brings Braided Roots to the VGP on October 18, 2025. Our newest evening’s length work, Braided Roots celebrates our 2015-2025 anniversary. Click here for more information about our October 18th, 2025 production.

Flamenco Íntimo has featured many artists over the years, including guitarists Misael Barraza Díaz and Kris Hill; singers Gaetano, Olivia Rojas, and Meagan Chandler; flautists Diana Schiable and Max Perrault; male soloists Martín Gaxiola and Carlos Montufar; female soloists Franchesca Nava, Bernadette Gaxiola, Tamara Sol, Liliana de León, and Risa Jacobson; corps dancers Claudia Welding, Liz Polen, Brooke Merwin, and Daniela Ziade; percussionist Emerson Laffey, pianist Ioannis Goudelis, and numerous youth performers.

When we return in 2026, Stage 2 will have a new theater! We look forward to continuing to share flamenco with you, in an intimate setting, where you can enjoy the subtitles exchanged between the artists on stage. Thank you for being part of our flamenco community!
