Unión Tanguera: 'Nuit Blanche'

Combining the sensuality and intimacy of social dance with the formal expressivity of grand theater, Unión TANGUERA'S LATEST WORK FEATURES A CAST OF VIRTUOSO TANGO DANCERS AND MUSICIANS IN A STORY SET IN A NIGHTCLUB OVER THE COURSE OF A SINGLE SLEEPLESS NIGHT, or nuit BLANCHE. The French Argentinian ensemble is co-directed by Claudia Codega and Esteban Moreneo, who studied with the greatest tango maestros of the 1980s and 1990s, and who now represent a new generation of tango choreographers whose work "intelligently reinterprets the vocabulary of pure tango" (Danseur). The company visits on its first American tour, with an ensemble of first-call Buenos Aires musicians and a production "perfect in rhythm and spirit" (Ballet 2000).
