What happens when a partnership becomes a love triangle, then a complex web of friendship and more – and the action all plays out on the dance floor?
London Tango is an intoxicating new tango composed by internationally renowned musician Romano Viazzani, under the artistic guidance of Kate Flatt MBE (Les Misérables, Opera North). Rehearsal will begin in Winter 2023 with first phase R&D for a film and a live performance sharing. Choreographed by Amir Giles (Mr Selfridge) and directed by Mike Figgis (Leaving Las Vegas, Internal Affairs), the project will also feature powerhouse performances from Mina Ojeda, Giraldo Diomar of the Corrientes Social Club and Dance School alongside Lesta Woo and Touchdown Dance.
This research and development phase of the project will lead on to the creation of a live performance with live orchestra and London Tango film for international touring, subject to future funding.
