"El Beso" - The Kiss

El Cacha Tango Company produced the Tango show “El Beso” directed by Heinrich Reisenhofer, performed at The Little Theatre, with eight local dancers led by Nur Dreyer and Cherona Reisenhofer-Dreyer.  The show was choreographed by Mareli Schroter with the music of the Cape Town Tango Ensemble and the Argentinean singer Juan Simon. The ladies' costumes were personally designed and created by top South African and international couturier Jenni Button

"It was a great show... The artistic direction, choreography and technical production was really outstanding and I thoroughly enjoyed the show and am now enthralled with the Tango!"
 " Whether you are an aficionado of tango, or simply enjoy expressive dancing and passionate music, this celebration of Argentinean culture will leave many a pleasant memory of an evening well spent.  The show’s title (meaning “The Kiss”) is aptly chosen, since romance is its whole raison d’etre.

.....and best of all, the intense tenderness generated by the lead partnership in their two bravura pieces, Million Tango and Libertango." - Cape Argus - Beverley Brommert
"I was blown away by the performances last night. Latino and Cherona are a dream to watch! Mareli is magic! Wow! What an inspiration!"

“Die dansers beweeg op na en af van die verhoog in n natuurlike luim, en die bekendstelling van elke nommer gebeur rustig.  Die choreografie van Mareli Schroter gryp die kern van die tango aan”. - Die Burger – Eduard Greyling
" 'El Beso' spog met Suid Afrika se vuurwarmste jong tango-paar Nur Dreyer en Cherona Reisenhofer – ondersteun deur n eksklusief Suid-Afrikaanse group dansers.” - Die Kaapse Son
