A Tango Love Story

Tickets here

Written, directed, and performed by Tomas Galvan and Gimena Herrera
With Special Guest, Camila Lima

This theatrical production guides us through an impassioned love story, employing the eloquence of Argentine tango and the expressiveness of physical theater. Earth and Fire Walking is a stereotype-defying love story. Two wanderers navigating between city life and nature’s embrace. Joy. Pain. Love; as pure and elemental as Earth and Fire.

Their practiced, intricate footwork is mesmerising as they burn up the Stage with fiery grace... A superb showcase of the most difficult couples’ discipline in dancing.
(Chairman Barnes. American actor & writer)

Their precise, fervent attack, perfectly matched, is full of beautiful moves; sharp and exact, an elongated pause, where the next attack of heart-leading-body-to-move takes place... their tango takes us through their urban life and the contrasting desert range of the Andes mountains, where they are from.
(Valerie Jean Miller for Broadwayworld.com)

Through tango, Tomas and Gimena told a soulful story about their relationship, their art, and their travels. The show never lagged; it was innovative, engaging, playful, elegant, moving, even (at one point) rather daringly risqué—and (one of the best descriptors of all real art) always true.
