TANGO SHOW IS INCREDIBLE ! Simply Incredible

Ack. I am completely overwhelmed right now. Tonight we walked from the hotel to Piazzola Tango, a restaurant and live Tango show. We came early for a Tango lesson before the show. The dancers taught us the basic Tango step and three moves. After demonstrating, the instructor said "gentlemen, attack! " and we found partners to dance with. He also pointed out that they were teaching Argentine Tango, not Hollywood Tango! And we danced. It was fun! I danced with Elsa and Lucile. We had a good time.

Then we walked into the dining hall, there was a beautiful stage in the center and everything was fancy. We were taken to our seats, and we had to choose a starter, an entree and a dessert. The food was delicious.I ate like a French person again-Elsa was proud. Then the show started as we were eating dessert.

Unfortunately, (truly, I am so upset) we were not allowed to take pictures or videos of the show. It was phenomenal. Indescribable. Captivating. Men and women danced in the stage in front of the musicians - a pianist, an upright bass player, two violinists and two accordion players- playing live music. They're outfits were amazing, they're dancing even more so. The Tango is a fun, romantic, sensual and sometimes melancholy dance. There were also two singers, make and female, who sang and the band would play instrumental Tango music while the dancers changed clothes. We were all filled with emotion after the show. It was incredible.

Walking back to the hotel, all of us enthusiastically talking about our favorite parts of the show, among other things. When we got there, I eventually went up to my room to sleep, but I had to write this down so I don't forget! But now that that's that, I'll see you tomorrow.

Note: Check this post again for pictures of the dancing lesson and maybe a video.  My friend has to send it to me.
