German Cornejo – Wild Tango

About the Show

As the night falls, the music of the great Argentine tango composer, bandoneon player and arranger, Astor Piazzolla, merges with the sophisticated and sensual performance of world-class Argentinean dancers to reveal tango in its most authentic and pure form. Tango superstar German Cornejo, who is widely acclaimed by critics and audiences all over the world as one of the most distinguished tango artists working today, leads his outstanding cast of 10 dancers, including his long term dance partner and collaborator Gisela Galeassi in this mesmerising new show. Accompanied by two sensational singers and seven musicians playing tango classics, Tango After Dark keeps the passion of tango burning deep into the night.

Wild Tango is an absolute feast of Argentine Culture, featuring fresh and electrifying new work by internationally acclaimed Argentine tango champion German Cornejo. This spectacular show is inspired by the origins of tango when two men danced among themselves with that unique connection, complexity, synergy, and strength generated between male dancers. As the show develops, it takes you to a whole different level. The cast of dancers includes several world tango champions, resulting in a show with an explosive mix of tango, contemporary dance, urban, malambo, and circus elements. This is the first time a large-scale international production about tango is performed mainly through a cast of men, exploring this traditional dance from another perspective.
