an Opera Bouffe by Dominic Muldowney
directed by Di Trevis

and Drama

The Voluptuous Tango is a category-defying mix of opera, theatre, and
dance... to the rhythm of the tango... in which an imaginary meeting
takes place between F.T. Marinetti, 'Father of Italian Futurism', and
Isadora Duncan, 'Mother of the Modern Dance' - a clash of titans, part
seduction, part futurist dinner party, all great theatre by two titans
visiting Pittsburgh: Di Trevis and Dominic Muldowney, power couple of
the Royal National Theatre, where Dom was Resident Composer for more than
15 years, and Di was the first woman director to be given a season.
Starring Richard Morris, Lenora Nemetz, Attack Theatre, and students from
the Schools of Music and Drama.
