María de Buenos Aires

201 State Street
Madison, WI 53703
OVERVIEW

Born in the slums of Buenos Aires “one day when God was drunk,” María turns to the city in a desperate quest for freedom, falling in love with its tango rhythms. A dark, surreal story told in song and dance, this “tango opera” by the legendary Argentine composer Astor Piazzolla has been widely acclaimed since its 1968 premiere.

Don’t miss this evening of theatrical exhilaration, stunning music, and extraordinary dancing, featuring Kanopy Dance.
