tango performances
The Miami Tango Fantasy Festival 2007
There are few things as sexy as the Tango, and certainly no dance steps that match its appeal. From Al Pacino performing the Tango in A Scent of a Woman, to Marlon Brando and Maria Schneider in Last Tango in Paris, people everywhere see the tango performed and think to themselves, “Dang, I need to learn how to do that.” For those who live near Miami, or are visiting, you’re about to get your chance.
The Miami Tango Fantasy Festival 2007 steps off Memorial Day Weekend. Beginning with a Milonga, the term given to tango parties, this festival offers entertainment for those who want to watch, and lessons – with sixteen 90 minute classes offered per day – for those who want to learn. These classes cater to everyone from those with two proverbial left feet to those who dance at a performance level.
For those who want to simply sit back, relax, and be in awed, the Tango Professors – those doing the teaching – will perform in a Masters of Tango Show, which includes a dinner. And, of course, no Tango Fantasy would be complete without the romance. The festival is held in a place where romance can not escape: a luxury hotel with a breathtaking pool, a grand ballroom, and all-night Tango parties.
