Diablico Sucio (Dirty Diablico)
Serie "Panama Folk"
EN: The Diablicos Sucios dance is one of the most important dances in Panama's Corpus Christi celebration, and is recognized by its colorful costumes and masks made of paper, clay and paint. They owe their name to the fact that their costumes were made with
dirty blankets painted with black and red stripes, and then the sweat from the dances gave them a dirty appearance. Although that is not the case today, the name remains. Their act is based on walking through the towns dancing and singing. They are, without a doubt, true icons of Panamanian culture.

ES: La danza de los Diablicos Sucios es una de las danzas más importantes en la celebración del Corpus Christi de Panamá, y se reconoce por sus coloridos trajes y máscaras hechas de papel, arcilla y pintura. Le deben su nombre al hecho de que su vestuario era elaborado con manta sucia pintada con rayas negras y rojas, y que luego con el sudor de los bailes les daba un aspecto sucio.
Aunque eso no es así en la actualidad, el nombre se mantiene. Su acto está basado en pasearse por los pueblos y las casas bailando y cantando. Son, sin duda, verdaderos íconos de la cultura panameña.
