Dancers from all over the world will come together to dance tango under the direction of Pablo Veron. This is your opportunity to be part of this exciting project!
Pablo Veron
Inheriting the tango tradition from the Argentinian masters, Pablo Veron innovated its style into a unique form which won him the respect of previous generations as well as today’s tango dancers. He starred in The Tango Lesson, the story of an English woman obsessed by tango and the man who teaches it to her. This cult classic made Veron a sex symbol, as well as a symbol of tango’s resurgence. Today in Buenos Aires, Pablo acts as a remarkable ambassador for this mysterious, sensual dance.
About Seduced by Tango
is a feature-length documentary hosted by Robert Duvall and intended for PBS broadcast -- follows acclaimed Tango artist Pablo Veron as he works with non-professional dancers from around the world. Each of these dancers is from a different culture, each has a different story to tell. Although their differences might be profound, Tango is what unites them as they work together toward a common goal: to perform tango at a milonga in Buenos aires,the birthplace of Tango. Along the way, we will come to understand the dramatic history of Tango as dance, music, and a metaphor for human connection.
