Tango Con Fusión Esucalo Burning Tango Festival 2019

Escualo Performed at Burning Tango Festival 2019 (McCloud, CA) Emblems of societys conflicted feminine ideal, corsets figure prominently in fashions past and present. They bind the wearer to a near inhuman silhouette, yet consumers choose them for their sex appeal. In Escualo, Tango ConFusión explores the corset as a symbol of manipulation by forces both external and from within oneself. When and how does the corseted, the target of control, resist and break free Choreography by Tango ConFusión (Originally 2013 for 3, Updated 2019 for 5) Costumes: Pier Voulkos Music: Astor Piazzolla
