FLAMENCO DANCER/ choreographer Clara Ramona is full of surprises. When I sat down with her for an interview, I assumed she had Spanish blood because of her Castilian features and her Spanish accent.

Earlier, I watched her rehearse two dance numbers in Repertory Philippines' production of "Man of La Mancha," currently showing at Rep's Globe Theater at Onstage in Greenbelt, Makati. That convinced me that Ramona was as Hispanic as Penelope Cruz or Antonio Banderas.

She surprised me when she revealed she was born in Quezon City to an American father and a Pinay mother!
