In Peel My Love Like an Onion, the seductive and exuberant world of flamenco forms the backdrop for a classic tale of independence found, lost, and reclaimed. Like Bizet’s legendary gypsy, Carmen “La Coja” (the Cripple) Santos is passionate, mesmerizing, and often hilarious. “A spicily layered piece of work.” —Chicago Sun-Times
