A show designed by director and choreographer Francisc Valkay.


“Believing in these two words, EL AMOR, may be a chimera.

Believing that they may speak to you, viewer, with this definition,

may be the expression of the creator’s subjective fantasy.

But what can be more challenging and inciting than believing that

EL AMOR actually exists, that breath, that love of any kind is the existence

of the moments we live.

Can I invite you to dance with me?

Can I invite you to hold you in my arms backed by the unique music of a tango?

And, thus, live in a single soul, that is frequently torn between ecstasy and sadness, live like this, with our foreheads together, in the charming noise of our breath.

Can I invite you to dance with me?

These are the thoughts of the dancers involved in this wordless dialogue, the thoughts of us, the ones who have created this representation of love and failure, of loss and redemption…

Come believe with us.

Come believe you can love with us.

Come breathe the miracle of this music.

Come be a single soul in two bodies and only then will you understand why EL AMOR…”
