Nuno Silva

With a tradition and fan-base to rival flamenco, fado is the blues of Portugal, captivating audiences with haunting melodies and passionate expression.

Nuno Silva, known for his appearances with leading contemporary dance companies and West End musicals, has brought together an international team of dancers and musicians for A Darker Shade of Fado, where sensual dance and soul-bearing fado meet. Drawing on the traditions of his Portuguese roots, Silva evokes the excitement of Lisbon's old quarter.

"Is there no end to Nuno Silva's talents? ...a fine singer of fado, the melancholy song-poetry of Portugal." - Luke Jennings, The Guardian.

Ages 12+.
