All the passion, rapture and seduction associated with the sultry Tango, Argentina's signature dance, will be celebrated one night only. The Argentine Tango Society will fly in 12 of Argentina's most accomplished Tango dancers expressly to perform the Washington, D.C. Premiere of the sensational I Tango, an unprecedented performance that celebrates the sophisticated artistry of this popular Latin dance. After the performance, the Argentine Embassy will host an authentic Milonga, a Tango party.

Also appearing will be the exuberant young dancers from the American Ballroom Theater Youth Performance Company, who starred in the critically acclaimed documentary, Mad Hot Ballroom. Their youthful mastery of ballroom dancing, including the Tango, has sparked a flurry of enthusiasm worldwide, especially among the younger generation.
