Come experience an authentic, Argentinian immersive experience, as you discover the history of tango through dance and original music all to a backdrop of photographs and film. An evening in the heart of Buenos Aires... in Trail! Be it the music, the passion, or the sense of connection, tango has won the hearts of dancers around the globe. This spectacular one-of-a-kind experience celebrates the art of tango with ten exceptional dancers bringing a love story to life with the rhythm of their steps. All accompanied by four musicians and two singers, who reproduce the traditional melodies of the milonga, both a South American musical genre and a popular, social dancing event. Founded and based in Buenos Aires , the Social Tango Project's mission is to share the social value of dance, celebrating the tango community through performance, music, and film. If you are a tango dancer, be prepared to be invited on stage to join in the fun!

The Knitting Pilgrim April - Tues., Apr. 15 at 7:30 pm A multidisciplinary one-man show that combines personal storytelling, image projection, and three huge, knitted panels that look like stained glass windows. Following Kirk Dunn’s fifteen-year artistic and spiritual journey the play explores why people struggle to get along, the meaning of art, and the power of love to overcome major obstacles (and minor mishaps) through hand-knitting.
