Maria De Buenos Aires
205 E. Randolph Chicago
Chicago Stage Premiere production of Astor Piazzolla's MARĶA DE BUENOS AIRES evokes Argentina's "Dirty War", the period between 1976 and 1983 when the country was governed by military juntas which controlled the populace through state-sponsored terrorism. This "tango operita" is of stunning originality, pulsing to the passion and beat of Astor Piazzolla's revolutionary "nuevo tango" and Horacio Ferrer's mesmerizing, imaginative poetry.
Presented by Chicago Opera Theater
