Photo Flash: Sneak Peek - ESTAMPAS PORTENAS: DESEOS to Heat Up the Palace Theatre
The newest production of Buenos Aires tango company Estampas Porteñas, Deseos...Stories of Longing and Desire Told through Argentine Tango and Music, is a celebration of the greatest artistic elements of Argentina including the indomitable tango, the gauchos' athletic malambo, and musical styles that range from melancholy to celebratory. With advanced technical elements, flawless and emotive dancing, and ardent, soul-filled music, the dancers, musicians, and singers of Deseos bring exhilarating storytelling to the stage, revealing the heart and soul of Argentina.
The Estampas Porteñas company was founded in Buenos Aires in 1997 by the distinguished dancer and choreographer Carolina Soler. Beginning her career in classical ballet, Soler was celebrated for her dazzling portrayals of traditional classical ballet roles.
In its first year, Estampas Porteñas toured China, performing morethan 60 successful shows. On its return to Argentina, the company performed at the Cultural Centre General San Martin, enjoying popular and critical acclaim and being described by local press as "...dazzling the audience with talent, seduction, and beauty." To date, the company has performed in more than 20 countries on five continents and presented various successful productions including Tango Fire, Tango Feeling, and "Entre Tangos y Firuletes."
