Dancing throught the looking glass,
Alice reimagined...
‘Alice in Tangoland’ weaves a magical universe where circus artistry fuses with the sensuality and elegance of tango in a spellbinding 90-minute journey. Under the vision of Anaïs Amar, scriptwriter and director, the classic tale is reborn , infused with poetry and daring modernity to reveal the extraordinary.
World-class circus performers join forces with exceptional tango dancers to unfold Alice’s timeless story. A stellar cast of acrobats, jugglers, contortionists, Cyr wheel artists, unicyclists, clowns, magicians, stilt-walkers, sword-swallowers, and tango virtuosos brings this world to life, transcending the boundaries of traditional circus and theatre.
In this unique adaptation of Alice in Wonderland, characters inspired by Lewis Carroll wander through dreamlike landscapes, fusing fantastical imagery with the hypnotic rhythm of tango.
Adorned in high heels, guided by a mad shoemaker, draped in sequins, or transformed into surreal beings, each performer adds vibrant visual poetry to the stage.
The soundtrack is as mesmerizing as the visuals , weaving traditional and contemporary Argentine tango with surprising influences from 70s rock and the cinematic flair of contemporary jazz. The result is a sonic journey as unforgettable as the spectacle itself.
‘Alice in Tangoland’ offers audiences a dazzling celebration of metamorphosis, magic, and fantasy.
