A Tango of fleeting romances

The setting for the tale presented is in a neighbourhood square, sheltered by a place that fosters intimate moments amidst the hustle and bustle of the big city. The creaking of the hammocks is the countdown of how long romances last, which, like the backwards and forwards of the children’s swing, come and go again. Romances that appear and disappear in common places but in a unique way.

The performance at the Boulevard Amphitheater, San Pedro Alcántara lasts for 45 minutes and entry is free of charge up until all the seats are filled. The show starts at 10pm on Friday August 23.
