About this Event

Chicago Artopia Presents: Tango 21 Dance Theater

Step into the world of Argentine tango with Tango 21 Dance Theater! Experience an unforgettable evening of electrifying performances, powerful rhythms, and the passionate artistry of world-class dancers. Witness the elegance, drama, and intensity of tango—live on stage in Chicago.

Featuring performances by Tango 21 Dance Theater co-founders Jorge Niedas and Liz Sung, along with ensemble dancers and evocative tango music, this immersive performance blends traditional technique with modern storytelling, movement, and sound.

Tango 21 Dance Theater tells original, contemporary stories through the language of Argentine tango. Their productions explore the poetic depth of tango lyrics and fuse the dance’s classical forms with contemporary dance, music, and theater.

For 145 years, tango has fascinated, scandalized, and romanticized. Today, it continues to inspire deep human connection on the social dance floor—and fuel the passion of artists on stage.

Founded in 2014, Tango 21 Dance Theater has grown from an extension of Niedas’ Tango 21 school into a vibrant ensemble of Chicago-based dancers, actors, and musicians. Touring year-round throughout the Midwest, the company continues to reimagine tango for the modern stage—bold, evocative, and unforgettable.
