Paul Morocco and ‘Ole!’ set to mesmerize audiences at the Jasper Arts Center

Paul Morocco and ‘Ole!’ will be performing at the Jasper Arts Center on Friday, September 21, 2018, at 7:30 p.m.

‘Ole!’ features three guitar locos using musical mastery and hilarious visual comedy to suspend, surprise, and mesmerize audiences.

They play their guitars like “Paco De Lucia”, sing like “Bee Gees”, and rumba like “Gypsy Kings”. They spin, flip, and fly their flamenco guitarras while popping ping pong balls and smashing eggs and clichés.

Paul Morocco developed ‘Ole!’ after cutting his performing teeth on the streets of New Orleans. There, he explored his love for entertaining the public, learning the timeless craft of connecting to the audience, and developing his unique improvisational skills. The original ‘Ole!’ show began at London’s Mime Festival in 1990 and debuted at Edinburg’s Fringe Festival in 1991, receiving not one, but two awards for the performance. In 1996, Paul teamed up with Guillermo De Endaya and Marcial Heredia.

This version of the show plays to enraptured audiences to this day and has become an international cult hit all over the world.
