Piazzolla Tango Show in Buenos Aires

It was tango show...that said, it lasted about an hour, the performers were talented and the show very enjoyable. The theater is in the basement of a building, but it was a nice theater, albeit it was on the warm side. We did NOT have dinner at the theater, but the beer and wine we purchased was cold and good, respectively. Overall, it was a nice intro to a Tango show and am glad we.went to this performance!

What a great experience! Did not disappoint. The theater was absolutely beautiful, the staff was top notch and the food was excellent.

The "Tango for two with dinner" was excellent! The dancers were amazing! My wife and I enjoyed it very much.

Excellent performance that's under-recommended, perhaps because they don't pay for affiliate links. Included 4 or 5 Piazzolla nuevo tango pieces, plus some film footage of the master playing bandoneon. (There's a subtly-integrated background video/light show.) The rest was traditional tango music, but its rendering felt contemporary, not something playing through a 1920s Victrola. The dancing was jaw-droppingly accomplished, acrobatic, and sensuous, including both tango and modern dance. The performers are 6 couples, with 1 couple serving as impresarios. Great 6-piece band (2 violins, 2 bandoneons, piano, upright bass). Singers front the band with solo songs during costume changes. The elegant theater looks huge in photos, but it's actually quite intimate. Dancers come forward do dance in the front loges, and singers walk right into the audience with cordless mics. This is in the basement of Galería Güemes, a Milan-style 1959 shopping arcade at Florida 165, a few walkable blocks from Plaza de Mayo and the Casa Rosada. We booked the show only, no dinner or hotel transfer. But we arrived early, and were offered an à-la-carte food and drinks menu. Outstanding deals (quoted in U.S. dollars) on well drinks. The space can be cool in Argentine winter (June–August), so dress in layers.

The show was really entertaining. It wasn’t too long and we enjoyed ourselves. It was exactly an hour.

We enjoyed the entertainment the signing and the beautiful art of dancing the Tango. A great experience for young adults.

Show was good and entertaining. While not our favorite food of trip, it was still quite tasty, especially given how many people they were serving and the speed in which they had to do it. Lots of meal and beverage choices. Be prepared to speak Spanish or you may just end up eating and drinking what they think is best. Worth the money and your time if coming to Buenos Aires.

Beautiful dancers and dances. Seating arrangement makes a difference, if youbare seated towards the back, watching show will be difficult. Completely in Spanish.

Excellent dinner and a must-see Tango Show in BA, every time I go to Buenos Aires, this is a place that I do not fail to visit, great dinner and beautiful Tango Show, a place quite frequented by the local public, worth visiting.

The show was great with a variety of dancers, songs and musicians. Everyone had a good seat but I was blessed with a party of tall people right in front of me. The direction re-seated us so we had a perfect view of the stage. What they say about Argentine beef is true. The steak was probably the best I ever ate. Just my own opinion, but some of the women's costumes were a bit too skimpy for my taste, but maybe you wouldn't agree with that. I chose this particular show hoping to hear more accordion since it is named after the famous Aster Piazzolla, whose accordion is on display in the entryway. There was a pretty good amount of that totally Argentinian accordion and bandoneon music. While I truly enjoyed this performance, I probably would not go again because they say each venue puts its own spin on the Tango experience and I'd love to see more. My traveler tip is to wait until you get to Buenos Aires, go to the box office to get your tickets and be sure to pay in pesos. With the exchange rate being so favorable right now to the dollar, it made our night out vastly less less expensive than if we had charged it. This goes for Teatro Colon, city tours and other canned experiences too. I was in shock to see how more our simple lunch at one restaurant ended up costing in dollars than most places we eat at in the states because I charged it and the credit card company did not give a favorable rate of exchange.
