Colorful and vibrant act
Old teatre, well preserved. Transports you to the past. The wardrobe is well made and the music on point. If you want you could have dinner
Disappointed customer
Show was meant to start at 9:30 pm as viewed on website! Started at 10pm and Waitress told me that’s exactly the time it starts every night!!! They should update their website with the correct information. I was freezing cold as they put me in the very back behind everyone else with a draft coming from outside! I asked to be moved but they wouldn’t, even though there were places I could have been moved to! The audio was so loud that it affected the sound of the music and the singing. In the future I will go elsewhere for hopefully a much better experience.
I highly recommend this show!
Such an enchanting evening of Argentinian dance. It’s authentic and gives you the vibe of being transported back in time.
Amazing Show, but the Overall Experience Could Be Better
I'm torn about this one. This should have been a 5-star review because the show itself was AMAZING! The singers and dancers were fantastic, and the theater had a charming, nostalgic atmosphere. However, a few things took away from the overall experience. I'd read similar complaints from other reviewers, so I was somewhat prepared, but they were still frustrating. First, if you order food or drinks and pay by card, they make you leave before the show ends to settle your bill. This seems completely unnecessary, especially since portable card machines are common throughout Buenos Aires. There's no reason guests should have to miss part of the performance just to pay. At the very least, they could communicate this policy clearly beforehand, either verbally or with a note, so guests know what to expect. Luckily, I was already aware of it from other reviews. Second, as others have mentioned, the show actually starts at 10 PM, not 9:30 PM as advertised, so keep that in mind when planning your evening. Lastly, the building was a bit difficult to find. Better signage would definitely help. Overall, the performance itself deserves 5 stars. It's a shame that a few easily fixable issues took away from an otherwise wonderful experience.
We opted for the show...
We opted for the show only experience. The show itself was great; the performers were excellent and the theatre was lovely. However, those who had opted for the dinner and show experience were being served their food throughout the show which restricted our view at times. We were also given the bill for our drinks mid-show and then disturbed a second time asking to pay which was totally unnecessary and caused annoyance across quite a few tables around us. Paying by card was only possible outside the main theatre area so I think we were expected to leave mid-show to pay (which we politely declined as we wanted to watch the show). It did dampen our experience of the night a little but the show itself was excellent and would recommend.
