Patricia Guerrero dislikes the word “luck”. She believes that this word devalues the hard work which leads to success, and says: “I deserve every step which I took. I got help from many people, but then you choose your own circle”.

Not surprisingly, the artist with such a credo in life gave birth to a show about feminine strength and vulnerability. In a society with double standards the equality of men and women is just a formality, or a utopia. In fact, women often have to play roles imposed on them. But what if you are a strong and brilliant personality, and your talents require expression? Why should one forsake one’s own individuality, and how much does it cost to remain true to your own self?

Distopia proves beyond doubt that Guerrero is one of the most promising figures in contemporary flamenco. Her fantasy is incredible, her resources seemingly boundless. Her style is at once vigorous and graceful. Her dancing remains perfect even at hectic pace. She succeeds in the most difficult thing, in developing the tradition by breaking the stereotypes.

“I don’t like being fashionable because fashion quickly goes out of style.”
