Illustration of the a human representation of a Bull in an embrace with a female Matador against a muted yellow background. She is holding his head to her chest as she digs spears into his back. The blood dripping from his wounds matches the red matador outfit she is wearing and her red ballet pointe shoes. He has his eyes closed with a peaceful expression as he submits to her.
Full MATADOR company on stage featuring all 14 performers. They are wearing red outfits against a blue background. The performer playing the role of the bull is on his knees holding onto the female Matador in the centre. All other performers have an intense look on their face as they stare out into the audience.
The performer playing the role of the bull has his back to us and is looking up at the female Matador as she comes off a circus apparatus in a sparkly jewelled lingerie set. He is shirtless and wearing his signature black horns.

After a sold out, award winning debut at Adelaide Fringe 2021, MATADOR - sabor de amor, comes back to Adelaide Fringe in 2022. 

Inspired by a tale as old as time, MATADOR is a fiery fusion of burlesque, dance & jaw-dropping circus acts. Set across a fiery Spanish sunset, this is a thematic tale of forbidden love, carnal desires, passion & pain, a tale of a love torn bull & the seductive Matador! MATADOR proudly returns with new acts, new costumes, new original music & a few suprises for our Adelaide audiences.
