Kansas City Tango ensemble Cucharada intends on being true to the aesthetic while carving out their own interpretations. Some of it is time-tested material while other selections are culled from more recent “Nuevo-Tango” acts. All of it is distilled through a conception of what just a few people can do with a broad palette at hand.  Tango dancing is permitted, and encouraged!

This performance is free and open to the public, and is part of the 2017 Art in the Loop Project:  Cue! The project is made possible through the generous support of KC Streetcar; the City of Kansas City, Missouri; the Missouri Arts Council; Arts KC and our corporate sponsors including Stinson Leonard Street, Henderson Engineers, JE Dunn Construction, McCownGordon Construction, Port KC and UMB Financial Corporation. We appreciate in-kind support and guidance provided by the Downtown Council, the Downtown and River Market Community Improvement Districts, KCMO-Public Works Department, KC Streetcar, the City Market, Kansas City Public Library, Kansas City Art Institute, Folk Alliance International and The Bridge 90.9.
