Two people, no longer in the first flush of youth, meet at a tango retreat in Buenos Aires. A spark is ignited, passions smoulder, this was meant to be. Tied to their families in Chile and Devon, they navigate the frustrations of a long-distance relationship sustained by tango sessions in Argentina - that include unexpected flights of the imagination into the realm of local myth. Then one of them weighs the ecological consequences.
A multi story mix of music, song, tango and stories ancient and modern.
About This Show
Tango weaves through the play as the relationship develops, driven by the wit and playfulness of the couple and the intensity of one of the most passionate dances in the world. But broader family responsibilities keep them apart. They maintain a long-distance relationship fuelled by occasional Tango weeks in Buenos Aires. Last Dance Saloon moves across continents, up into the heavens and deep into the underworld. It marries contemporary political, social and ecological realities with timeless myths.
Afer the interval Multistory warmly invite you to partcipate in their Tango workshop. Oh yes, there will be the fun opportunity to throw a few shapes yourself at the end of the evening.
WARNING : Due to the show representing the atmosphere of a Tango milonga (social dance). The audience are seated both on the stage and in the auditorium with the performance being held at floor level- therefore for viewing purposes we have limited the number of seats available for this intimate show.
"multi story illuminate their chronicles with intelligence and theatricality. Their approach is spare - no wasted movements or empty ideas. And they are marvellous actors." CBC
“Not only thought provoking but a delight - sprinkled with humour and held together with snatches
of the tango. Very relevant to our time and so much of it touched me being a grandmother myself.
The atmosphere of all the different areas from the airport to the dance studio and streets of Buenos Aires, created just with sound effects.”
