Help us bring the magic of Tango Illusion to stage! Tango Illusion is a dance play that portrays the onstage and offstage lives of a troupe of Tango and Salsa dancers, who perform their show nightly in New York City. 

We are at an exciting time in the journey to bring Tango Illusion to reality. Your sponsorship will directly support an Actors’ Equity Association (AEA) developmental workshop performance to showcase the magic of Tango Illusion to potential future producers and investors on September 18th and 19th at The Players in New York City. This is a crucial step, and we need your support.
