Tango Fire — Flames of Desire

Archived Show

UK PREMIERE 

Following sell-out seasons in New York, Barcelona, Hamburg, and Cape Town, Argentina’s hottest dance company, Tango Fire, returns to the Peacock Theatre with its brand new show, Flames of Desire.

With some of the speediest footwork and tightest twirling in the business, this sizzling show takes audiences on a journey through the history of tango, from its origins in the dance halls of Buenos Aires through to its growing popularity as a contemporary dance form. Flames of Desire features ten sensational dancers including three world tango champions, one of Argentina’s finest young singers and Quatrotango, a quartet of brilliant musicians.

**** "Each duet a mini drama, sexual electricity at the twitch of a hip"
EVENING STANDARD

Combining the rawness, sophistication and sexiness of tango, you won’t want to miss this authentic show that will leave you longing for the intoxicating passion of Buenos Aires’ late night dance halls!

30 minutes prior to each performance audiences are invited on the stage for a milonga, a traditional public dance practised in Argentina.
