Carlos Gardel Tango Theater

Carlos Gardel is one of the most famous singers, songwriter and prominent figures in the history of tango. He died in a plane crash in 1935. In the restaurant scene of "A Scent of a Woman" Al Pachino danced with a woman to the tango Pon Una Cabeza written by Gardel.

We attended the theater last night for the show. This is an impressive 500 seat theater. It was table seating and we were served empanadas and wine during the performance. The musicians with 3 accordionists were as great as the dancers. The musicians were elevated above the stage.
