This large corner venue is also an upscale restaurant. The show follows tango's evolution from its bordello origins to cabaret influences to milongas and modernism. There’s more low-key dancing than at other shows – and also more singing and musical interludes – so don’t expect overly athletic moves. One minus: columns can block some views.
