Tango fascinates and touches people of all backgrounds and generations. Founded and based in Buenos Aires, Argentina, the Social Tango Project’s mission is to share the social value of dance, celebrating the tango community through performance, music and film. The company invites tango lovers to experience a real evening to the rhythm of this popular dance so closely linked to Argentina, in the intimacy of a milonga recreated here by multidisciplinary choreographer Agustina Videla from Buenos Aires. Dance, music, projections and documentary film combine to create an authentic, immersive experience!

On stage, ten dancers bring this love story to life with the rhythm of their steps, accompanied by four musicians and a singer who reproduce the traditional melodies of the milonga. The show also offers a beautiful visual experience, with the audience discovering the history of tango through a series of photographs and a documentary film by Argentine photographer Nora Lezano. An evening in the heart of Buenos Aires... in Ottawa!
