UC has a large theatrical music, performance and dance venue program called Cal Performance in Zellerback Hall where world class performers tour. I was lucky to see his company perform there. Of course I loved it!

Tango is such a beautiful dance with it’s expression of passionate love performed with the most amazing athletic footwork and moves. The dancers seem to become one in their full body interactions with each other. They seem to wrap into each other with intimate expressive precision. The world around them becomes minimal and unimportant.
