Tango Techie Tales: In Need Of A Drink Or Some..!!

Chancho, Yani y Nico

The show went pretty well. It didn’t have anywhere near the finesse of the normal show but it also didn’t look too sloppy. Granted, I had about 3.5 pages of notes (mostly minor adjustments) at the end and had made adjustments as the show progressed but overall, I was happy with what appeared on stage, given the extreme conditions it was produced in!

I was even happier upon heading to the bar at the Function (luckily there was one!) and ordered a beer, when one of the Dancers came up and ordered a Jack Daniels and coke... When they didn’t have to pay for it (usually beer & wine is free) I chased Cardinal down and he said, “For us, todos gracias...!!” Done & done! Needless to say, I switched to something a little more stronger for the remainder of the evening!!

My 'theme' for the night was 'Silly Faces" - managed to get one with everyone in the company. Here, Jolly y Vicki share the limelight.

Upon leaving the Function (we all, um... may have loaded up any available carry space with bottles of beer...) We hadn’t stolen them & it’s not our standard practice to leave with take-aways but when you’re offered!) & getting back to our hotel, we found that it had been over run with masses of Swiss people who were wildly celebrating their win over Greece in a World Cup Qualifying match! Needless to say, our night continued far longer than it should of. But the night effortlessly and quickly washed away the stress of prob the most unique & absurd moment I’ve ever had in theatre!!
