Overview
Created in Argentina in the 1880s, Tango is a sensual partner dance known throughout the world for its passion and intimacy. Founded by German Conejo, the Tango Fire Company return to London’s Peacock Theatre for a sensational seventh season, bringing Latin heat to the West End for a strictly limited run of Tango Fire that is guaranteed to get pulses racing.
Touring the world for the last 12 years, the Tango Fire Company debuted in Singapore in 2005, followed by an extensive New Zealand and Australia tour. 2006 saw lengthy tours across the US and UK, as well as seasons in Europe and Asia. This year brings them back to the US, UK and Europe, as audiences around the world simply can’t get enough of this stunning show.
Company founder and star of the show German Cornejo began studying Tango when he was 10 years old, and went on to compete in dance competitions, often winning first place. Since 2011, his dance partner has been superstar Gisela Galeassi. The pair are one of 5 that star in Tango Fire, accompanied by the live Tango Fuego Quartet.
The company’s current dancers are Sebastian Alvares and Victira Saudelli, Marcos Esteban Roverts and Louise Junqueira Malucelli, Ezequiel Lopez and Camila Alegre, and Julio Jose Seffino and Carla Dominguez. The band consists of Matias Feigin, Clemente Carrascal, Facundo Benadvidez and Gemma Scalia. Jesus Hidalgo sings with the band.
Although Tango Fire regularly comes to the UK, their busy touring schedule means they can never stay in one place for long. This hugely popular company promises a red-hot night of show-stopping entertainment, playing at the Peacock Theatre from 29 January to 16 February 2019.
