Theatre tangos through woman’s life

The Pitt News: "From outside, the now-defunct YMCA in East Liberty looks like another piece of empty real estate. But behind its grimy facade, a very kinetic spectacle takes shape.
After entering the unmarked building from Whitfield Street, crossing a gloomy foyer and ascending stairs that go past a low-lit, dust-caked gymnasium, one is suddenly in an Argentinian speakeasy.
This is the set of Quantum Theatre’s latest show, a production of Argentinian composer Ástor Piazzolla’s 1968 tango-opera, “María De Buenos Aires.”
