The Tango Jam

The Tango’s show is wild, character-driven, ridiculous, friendly fun. Our opening scenes get everyone at the theater in the two-person mindset.

Want to be a part of the Tango jam? All you need to do: Arrive a little earlier than 7 pm, and sign up to join in. Bring a scene partner, or get matched with a friendly fellow jammer. We’ll give you 2-5 minutes (depending on attendance) to explore your two-person scene in full. Our jam community is kind, friendly, and incredibly talented. Come and play!
