Dance Consortium presents
m¡longa (2017)
16 May – 17 June
“Cloaked in intimacy, dappled with melancholy, Cherkaoui’s m¡longa makes you feel as if you’ve stumbled into a fantasy dance hall, and you’re the luckiest wallflower in town”
“Cherkaoui has drawn the best from his five top tango couples, bringing classic stylings to a show that highlights the drama and passion for which tango is renowned”
“[Cherkaoui’s] take on tango is a sweetly melancholic love letter”
“Mating rituals can never have looked more artfully sexy, nor, in the show as a whole, can tango ever been given a fonder or more imaginative makeover. What a treat”
“Rhythms flicker around the stage like forked lightning”
“m¡longa casts a magic spell”
“One of [Cherkaoui’s] most touching and entertaining shows”
“m¡longa is a very beautiful show indeed”
