The Washington Post, review by Pamela Squires
VALETANGO COMPANY strips Argentine tango to its bare bones, focusing on the dynamic interplay of lead and follow co-creation as the source of a new aesthetic that highlights relevant contemporary stories. Our shows focus, with humor and wit, on gender dynamics of the social dance floor and the conflict created by power and desire.
