went out to see the pacific northwest ballet's "Tango Tonight", made up of 3 separate ballets which were all so wonderful to see. The first was a very romantic, almost Parisien-like rendition of the dance using chairs...which led to the second (my favorite) which went back to the roots of Tango in Buenos Aires at a time when the population of men exceeded that of women by practically 100,000. This dance was very raw and sensual, using ten men and only four women, wearing simple black, "Chicago"-like outfits. Because of the imbalance of genders, they had several same-sex duets which was also reflective of the origins of Tango in which men often had to practice together. The final ballet ended very classically where everyone was dressed in a more formalized manner in the way that we associate tango with today. I really enjoyed last night's performance...and have really enjoyed the entire season. Phoebe and I don't know if we want to renew our subscription or look into other areas to subscribe to. I really want to be able to go out to the theater more and the symphony, both things that I also love so dearly.
