Edinburgh Fringe Festival

The Edinburgh Fringe Festival has long been at the heart of our creative journey. Having been based in Edinburgh for many years, the city—and the festival—truly feels like home. It has also become the natural stage for the premiere of each of our original productions. This page is dedicated to showcasing and describing all of these works, as well as offering insights into what we’ve been creating and presenting each year. Here, you’ll find a curated selection of the shows we’ve produced, created, and co-produced over time. With more than a decade of continuous involvement at EdFringe, our presence reflects a deep and ongoing connection to this extraordinary festival.

EdFringe 2025

We’re thrilled to share that our 2025 Edinburgh Fringe season has been a tremendous success. Night after night, we performed to warm, diverse audiences, and each show became a celebration of connection, creativity, and the joy of flamenco. We close this year’s Fringe deeply grateful for every kind word, every ovation, and the constant support we’ve received.

At EdFringe 2025, we brought back three of our most beloved productions—Flamenco in Scotland, FlamenKids, and 2FLAMENCO—each one carefully reimagined to offer a brand-new experience.

✨ Flamenco in Scotland showcased a renewed selection of styles taught and choreographed by Inma Montero through both online and in-person training, performed by the TuFlamenco Performing Group and our core ensemble of professional artists.

✨ FlamenKids, after two years of sold-out runs, returned with a refreshed, interactive format that kept its essence intact: introducing young audiences to the magic of flamenco in a playful and engaging way.

✨ 2FLAMENCO also returned by popular demand after its 2024 sell-out success, transformed into a fully reimagined production with a new concept, new structure, and a contemporary flamenco fusion approach. Performed daily at 9pm by Danielo Olivera and Jara Pérez, it delivered a powerful, emotionally charged experience.

We were delighted to revisit these three shows—not as repeats, but as bold new reinterpretations shaped with fresh choreographies, dynamic staging, and renewed artistic energy. As in previous years, we did not present our acclaimed Flamenco Tablao at the Fringe, despite its ongoing popularity. Instead, our team collaborated once again with the Daniel Martinez Flamenco Company in their celebrated festival productions, offering audiences a different facet of our work.

We’re already looking forward to the 2026 edition, where we’ll continue exploring new ideas, reinventing past creations, and sharing flamenco with ever-growing audiences.

💃 Thank you, Edinburgh—see you next year!

EdFringe 2024

At EdFringe 2024, we presented three of our standout productions: “Flamenco in Scotland,” “FlamenKids,” and “2FLAMENCO.” Building on their previous success, each show was reimagined and presented as a brand-new experience for our audiences.

“Flamenco in Scotland” once again showcased a rich variety of flamenco styles, choreographed and taught by Inma Montero through a blend of online and in-person classes. Performed by the TuFlamenco Performing Group, alongside our regular ensemble of professional artists, the show brought fresh energy, original choreographies, and vibrant stage presence to a packed theatre.

“FlamenKids,” following two years of sold-out performances, returned with a refreshed and exciting format. Staying true to its core mission of introducing young audiences to the magic of flamenco, this edition featured new interactive elements and was a joyful, educational journey—delivered by our talented student performers and professional team.

To round out the year, “2FLAMENCO” made a powerful comeback by popular demand after its previous sold-out run. This time, it was entirely transformed, with a new structure and concept. The show, featuring Inma Montero and Danielo Olivera, offered audiences an emotionally charged and visually stunning flamenco fusion performance that ran nightly at 9pm to great acclaim.

We were incredibly proud of these productions and the enthusiastic response they received. Each show stayed true to our values of authenticity, creativity, and artistic excellence, while offering something entirely fresh for returning and new audiences alike.

As in past years, we did not register our acclaimed “Flamenco Tablao” for EdFringe 2024, despite its continued popularity and five-star reviews. While we know it remains a favorite among flamenco aficionados, the success of our three reinvented shows more than made up for its absence.

Thank you to everyone who joined us—we can’t wait to see you again at EdFringe 2025!

EdFringe 2023

At EdFringe 2023, we proudly presented three vibrant productions: “Flamenco in Scotland,” “FlamenKids,” and “2FLAMENCO.”

Following the success of the previous year, “Flamenco in Scotland” returned with an entirely new show, once again showcasing a rich variety of flamenco styles. The choreographies were developed and taught by Inma Montero through both online and in-person classes, and brought to life by the TuFlamenco Performing Group alongside our regular ensemble of professional artists.

“FlamenKids” made its debut at EdFringe 2023 as a brand-new production designed to introduce young audiences to the magic of flamenco. This joyful and interactive journey was also delivered by our talented student performers and professional team, captivating the wee ones with rhythm, music, and movement.

We also premiered “2FLAMENCO,” a powerful and intimate flamenco performance that ran daily at 9pm throughout the Fringe. Featuring Inma Montero and Danielo Olivera, this original production offered a unique and expressive take on flamenco, and was warmly received by audiences across the festival.

EdFringe 2023 was a fantastic celebration of flamenco’s diversity, creativity, and emotional depth—and we were honored to share these productions with such enthusiastic and supportive audiences.

EdFringe 2022

For EdFringe 2022, we proudly presented three productions: “Flamenco in Scotland,” “FlamenKids,” and Danielo Olivera’s “The Leith Whistler.”

Following the success of the previous year, “Flamenco in Scotland” returned with an entirely new edition, once again showcasing a variety of flamenco styles. The choreographies were created and taught by Inma Montero through both online and in-person classes, and performed by the TuFlamenco Performing Group alongside our regular team of professional artists.

“FlamenKids” premiered at EdFringe 2022 as a brand-new production aimed at young audiences. It brought flamenco straight to the wee ones in a fun, educational, and interactive journey, also performed by our student company and artistic team.

We also premiered “The Leith Whistler,” an original solo performance by Danielo Olivera, offering a unique and personal exploration of flamenco, storytelling, and sound.

In addition to our own productions, we were delighted to take part in “Flamenco Fringe” and the “Flamenco Guitar Concert” by the Daniel Martinez Flamenco Company, continuing a collaborative presence that began at EdFringe 2021.

EdFringe 2021

2021 was, as many can imagine, an unusual and uncertain year due to the ongoing pandemic. We faced many questions around whether to register for EdFringe, whether to create new productions, or simply revisit previous ones. After careful consideration, we made the decision to present two original productions: “Flamenco in Scotland” and “Rumba Mágica.”

In “Flamenco in Scotland,” we showcased a variety of flamenco styles choreographed and taught by Inma Montero during the pandemic through our online classes. The performances were delivered by the TuFlamenco Performing Group, with many of our dancers and guitarists taking the stage for the first time. It was a heartfelt and powerful project that was warmly received by flamenco aficionados.

The second production, “Rumba Mágica,” was a vibrant and joyful musical experience—an artistic call for the return of good times through elegant, warm music blending Latin influences with the spirit of flamenco. It featured a lineup of exceptional musicians who embraced our artistic vision and brought the show to life with passion and finesse.

That year, we chose not to register our acclaimed “Flamenco Tablao,” a long-standing favorite among audiences and critics, which had received 5-star reviews in its last appearance in 2019. These Tablao performances had been the core of our EdFringe presence for over a decade, and while we missed presenting it, we embraced a new direction.

Instead, we joined forces with our sister company, the award-winning Daniel Martinez Flamenco Company, with whom we’ve collaborated since its founding in 2017. Together, we co-organised “Flamenco Fringe,” a new platform rooted in the spirit of the traditional tablao, combined with Daniel Martinez’s celebrated production “Art of Believing.” The result was an absolute treat for flamenco lovers and newcomers alike—and a show that sold out from day one.

EdFringe 2019

2019 was officially the first year TuFlamenco registered its own shows and productions at the Edinburgh Festival Fringe. Everything we had done before—though meaningful and appreciated—was technically unrecorded, aside from the many reviews and mentions we received in connection with other productions. But 2019 marked our true debut as a registered company, and it proved to be a prolific and exciting year for our creative work.

We presented several productions, including the highly successful “Flamenco Tablao” and the innovative “Flamenconova,” and we also co-produced the intercultural piece “From India to Triana.” Our chosen venue was theSpacesUK—a bold adventure in itself, filled with challenges and stories worthy of their own chapter.

The result exceeded our expectations: “Flamenco Tablao” played to near sold-out audiences daily and received incredible audience feedback, including a 5-star review from one of the festival magazines. The other productions also resonated well with audiences and critics alike, further solidifying our presence at the Fringe.

Unfortunately, not long after, the pandemic brought everything to a halt. The momentum we had built and the plans we had laid for expanding these productions were suddenly paused. As of now, they remain on standby, waiting for the right moment to return—stronger and more inspired than ever—once conditions are more stable.

Great show by an amazing team of musicians and dancers. The authenticity of the real flamenco. Very elegant dancer. Powerful taconeo. The beautiful voice of the female singer is joined to the husky voice of her colleague. The results is perfect for reminding us the great Camaron de la Isla. The talented guitarist and composer makes you feel each piece as an unique hidden gem.

Strongly recommend. This show will transport you right to Cadiz and Granada. Close your eyes and you would feel like in an Albaicon cave.

I always enjoy Inma and Danielo’s singing and never more so than here. Accompanied by the wonderfully talented Dani Martinez on the guitar and two excellent dancers, they soar to great heights. We’re so lucky that we can see and hear them here in Edinburgh all year round as TuFlamenco. Yes, four out of the five performers are based here in Edinburgh! Don’t make that an excuse to miss them though. Make sure you go. Just remember to bring a fan (no, not to join in the dance, but to try and keep cool).

Amazing show! I’ve not seen flamenco like this before: improvised, daring and unique! One guitar (incredible musician), two singers and two fantastic dancers. A very intimate 1 hour which made you at times hold your breath and was so passionate and beautiful I saw more than one audience member she’d a tear. Highly recommended!

Brilliant! Loved every second. My only criticism is of myself and the audience for not getting up and shouting and cheering our appreciation of these wonderful artistes. Why are we so reserved? Should be compulsory glasses of rioja to remove our inhibitions beforehand. Loved it can’t wait to see it again!

Very talented performers – a hidden gem! Really good musicianship and dancing. Truly beautiful singing voices too. This is a great chance to hear (and see!) two different genres done by people who really know how to do them! And the fusion works well, I’m pleased to report.
