Helen Lai’s Direction and Choreography, Astor Piazzolla’s Tango Operita
【The Doom and Redemption along the Road to the Cross】
God was drunk at her nativity and she has since escaped providence.
Buenos Aires’ Maria is both a goddess and a slut, captivating yet scorned upon.
Under the moonlight, she tangoes fatally with passion in the slum,
living a dream that no one dares to.
Birth, decadence and death. Maria’s shadow sways along the road to the Cross.
It’s time. She is summoned by the spirits. Is it her doom or her redemption?

Directed and choreographed by internationally renowned choreographer Helen Lai, Maria de Buenos Aires brings together dance artists, opera singers, narrator and musicians to perform the only tango opera by the late Argentine composer Astor Piazzolla, where Maria hovers between life and death, love and hate in the mysterious and magical aura.
