Direct from sell out seasons at London’s Peacock Theatre and the Joyce Theatre in New York Estampas Porteñas, Argentina’s most celebrated dance company, makes its triumphant return to Brisbane and the Gold Coast with their spectacular dance production, TANGO FIRE.
Following sell out tours of the USA, Europe and Asia, highlighted by critically acclaimed sold out shows in both London and New York, Tango Fire performs ONE show only at the Gold Coast Arts Centre on Thursday 10th July, followed by THREE performances at the Concert Hall, QPAC from Friday 11th July.
The company - direct from Buenos Aires - features 10 sensational dancers accompanied by one of Argentina’s finest singers and a quartet of brilliant young musicians, Quatrotango.
TANGO FIRE is an irresistible journey through the history of this most seductive of dance forms. Period duets evoke the glitter and danger of the barrios where the dance was born, and the heady nostalgia of the early dance halls where it was popularised, while the group's modern choreography is edged with the sharpness and sophistication of contemporary Argentina.
As one of the most popular dance forms world-wide, this exciting show combines the rawness and sophistication, sexy and sensual side of Tango in an evening of unforgettable spectacle.
“This is tango with a big smile and boisterous high jinks performed by 10 exquisitely skilled dancers with spirit and charisma to match.” - The Boston Globe Jan 2008
“… a sizzling, sensual taste of the real thing … sexual electricity crackling at the arch of an eyebrow, exploding at the twitch of a hip. Turning the genteel confines of Sloane Square’s Cadogan Hall into a sea of writhing libido takes some doing, but Tango Fire pulls it off” - The Evening Standard (London Sept 2006)
“In each of their tangos, tension gave way to voluptuous softness, and powerful overhead lifts melted onto the floor in silken extensions.” - The New York Times Nov 2006
Andrew Kay and David Vigo present
