The Cuban Missile Tango opens tonight Thursday at 7:30 and continues Fri @ 7:30, Sat @ 7:30, Sun @ 2:00.

In his last production Apis, or the Taste of Honey, Jerry Mouawad crossed the world of the honeybee with that of a military prison. In The Cuban Missile Tango Mouawad crosses a halloween night dinner party with the Cuban missile crisis. Call it fusion theatre, call it explosive dance mime performance, call it opera beyond words - whatever you call it, it's still difficult to peg. All ticket are $10. Shows will take place at Imago Theatre, 17 SE 8th Avenue. Tickets are only sold at the door. Box office opens one hour before show time.

The Cuban Missile Tango is rated ‘R’ for sexual and violent content.

Mouawad’s cast of fourteen actors, dancers and movers throw plates,  toss guns,  play sex games and eat dinner to create The Cuban Missile Tango.  To tell the story,  teletype projections blast away above the set.  Below these headlines Mouawad stages a cantankerous celebration that turns sour then deadly.
