Marcos Ayala Tango Company/ tango from Buenos Aires The show that takes us to the origins of tango dance. A reference point with passion and lust.
A sense of music that soon turned into dance and united different social strata. Marcos Ajala – director, choreographer and dancer, one of the best tango dancers in the world, who invests a lot of energy and work to make tango an important genre for future generations. Marcos Ajala, together with his troupe, creates an exquisite visual fairy tale based on his artistic and choreographic concept, depicting the richness of “rio platense” dance. In the middle of the 19th century, tango ruled over argentine pubs.
In stiff Europe, dance had been tabooed for a very long time simply because it was considered the entertainment of the lower strata of society. The Old World only succumbed when it realised that no other dance in the world possessed such energy and defiant openness. Stunning movement, solos and duets, unusual elegance, impeccable technique, atmosphere of love and passion. Strength, selfishness, craving for victory and success, the ability to overcome all obstacles with the help of dance, to come out of the shadows into the light. And, of course, wonderful music, the opportunity to transform into dance, naivety and depth, the ability to find oneself, to turn into a single whole. And then there’s the movement conversation with music and the endless desire to love. It is a dance on the verge of intangible light and darkness.
