“Swirling, fast-paced tapestries of movement, laced with proud postures and sensual couplings,” reported The Washington Post after their last performance here. Tango Buenos Aires is Argentina’s greatest cultural export with a dozen talented dancers, a vocalist and six gifted instrumentalists. Together they trace the history of the Argentine Tango, an integral part of their culture that was born in the dance halls and brothels in the late 19th century and swept Europe as high society embraced this new dance sensation. Tango Buenos Aires never fails to mesmerize and astound audiences as they perform the various styles of tango with its dazzling intricacy, dramatic flourish, and deep emotion.

Georgian State Dance Company Saturday, November 17 at 8 pm
Sunday, November 18 at 4 pm PURCHASE SINGLE TICKETS FOR THIS EVENT - SEPT. 1, 2007
The Georgian State Dance Company storms the stage with equal parts enthusiasm and virtuosity in a non-stop kaleidoscope of whirling, leaping, spinning, and gliding bodies, leaving audiences and critics awestruck. “Quite astonishing,” reported The Dallas Morning News. “Remarkable,” declared The New York Times. This renowned company performs regional, court, and social dances reflecting various aspects of Georgian life. Fierce gymnastic male warriors demonstrate their impressive acrobatic skills in dramatic war dances while exquisitely costumed women glide on imperceptible footsteps across the stage. And then, performing at break-neck speeds, the men spin high in mid-air, compete in elaborate swordplay, dance completely unsupported on toes alone, and defy gravity by balancing on one another’s shoulders.

Perú Negro Saturday, Feb. 2 at 8 pm PURCHASE SINGLE TICKETS FOR THIS EVENT - SEPT. 1, 2007
For 35 years, this energetic ensemble has been preserving Peru’s rich African heritage. Today, they are the standard bearers of Black music in Peru. In their high-energy shows, festive and celebratory dances are interwoven with vibrant live music to recreate the folkloric history of their ancestors. “A nonstop carnival of rhythm,” writes The Los Angeles Times. Their distinctive sound is in part the result of their unusual percussion instruments – a wooden crate, a tithing box and a donkey jaw. Historically, these were substitutes for the drums that had been banned by Spanish colonizers. The music is rounded out by melodic guitar and passionate voices, providing the perfect accompaniment for the rhythmic and passionate dancing. “So much unadulterated fun,” declared the Boston Globe.
