Theatre/Tango Workshop


Since the culture of tango is very performance based, it comes as no surprise that it lends itself to larger than life characters. A good dancer will use certain character traits and amplify them as part of the dance, allowing him (or her) to perform something approaching a piece of theatre within the constraints of a three minute tango. After all, commanding a space in the milonga is not too dissimilar from holding an audience on stage.

This workshop explores the world of Tango in a theatrical way. Using drama exercises and basic rules of Tango, participants will get the opportunity to act out the various characters that exist within the dance. The workshop is very interactive and most importantly, it’s a lot of fun!

We have two types of workshop available:
Workshop 1 – Suitable for those with little or no experience of Tango.
Workshop 2 – Suitable for experienced Tango dancers.
Maximum number of participants: 20 (depending on workshop space).
Duration: 2 hours. 

Please Note: No performance or theatre experience is necessary for either workshop.
