Press Release Summary: The Argentine Tango Society's Renowned Production, I TANGO,
Ignites the Flynn MainStage for the First Time this Fall

Press Release Body: Burlington, VT -- The Argentine Tango Society presents their
esteemed production of I Tango on the Flynn MainStage Friday, October 12th at 8:00
pm. Following the performance will be a traditional Milonga Party where attendees
have the opportunity to dance the tango on the Flynn stage and mingle with the
dancers and musicians of the I Tango show.

The tango is a dance of love that ignites the spirit of Argentina on the stage and
shares the Argentine culture with the world. I Tango combines the live music and
vocal performances of the Color Tango Orchestra with evocative dance through a
personal exploration each of the 14 dancers has with the sensual, passionate, and
melancholy art form known and loved throughout the world as the tango.

World renowned artistic director, Alicia Cruzado, captures the essence of the tango
and its origins in this uncompromising performance. "I am passionate about the
tango as an art form and cultivate that passion in the dancers as they speak their
own mysterious body language through my sometimes cutting edge interpretation,"
exclaims Cruzado - who often teaches tango classes in and around the Northeast
including Burlington's Salsalina Studio on Pine Street. Cruzado adds, "the tango
transforms the entire body into a musical instrument through choreography, beauty,
and passion."

Internationally acclaimed maestro, Roberto Alvarez, directs the Color Tango
Orchestra, which was formed in 1989 and parallels the style of the 1920's expressive
tango movement. Alvarez incorporates classical composers such as Pugliese and
Piazzolla into more modern repertoire creating expressive maturity while conserving
the aesthetical origins of tango. Color Tango, comprised of bandoneon, violin,
viola, bass, keyboard, piano, and soloist, is the ultimate dance partner in the
beautiful instrumentation of the tango.

The Argentine Tango Society is responsible for introducing some of the greatest
international tango dancers and musicians to the United States and has already made
its way into the hearts of Vermonters at the Stowe Tangofest. The Argentine Tango
Society and artists of the I Tango show invite Vermonters and Vermont visitors to
share in their first experience on the Flynn Mainstage on Friday, October 12th.

Tickets, priced from $35-$55, are available at www.flynntix.org, by calling
