FREE PRE-SHOW OUTDOOR MILONGAS BEGIN AT 6 PM ON THE CENTER PLAZA!

The sensuality of tango comes alive as this 14- member, international troupe explores the evolution of the tango- in this critically acclaimed show. 
Tango First Century highlights Paris in the roaring twenties, the unforgettable
Carlos Gardel, the golden age of tango in the 1940s, and the contemporary tango of Astor Piazzolla.
Romulo Larrea’s ensemble, formed in 1990, provides the backbone for this breathtaking production, performing a vast  repertoire using an unorthodox combination of traditional tango trio (bandoneon, piano and double bass) and classical quartet (two violins, viola and cello).
 
Tangueros are invited to dance prior to both the Friday and Saturday night
performances. Join in the fun beginning at 6 p.m. on the plaza in front the Center. It’s free!
