Maria De Buenos Aires
Move to Buenos Aires, to the smokiest of smoky clubs, to tango, passion and death. Here we meet the sex worker María "born on a day when God was drunk", enchanted by the tango and sacrificed to Satan. In the form of her own shadow and finally resurrected as the Virgin Mary, she is banished to hell, which is the city itself.

When Astor Piazzolla's iconic work, written in a creative frenzy in 1968, comes to Stockholm in November, it will be spectacular and colorful, rhythmic and luscious, mysterious and enchanting. In the title role, the Swedish-Chilean Luciana Mancini is heard - our time's leading interpreter of the role and sought after worldwide. With her on stage, she has the Argentinian tango singer Alejo Falces as her sidekick.
