Teatro Eliseo presents Napoletango A Latin-Neapolitan Musical created and directed by GIANCARLO?SEPE with an original theme by LUIS BACALOV Naples and Tango: a wonderful celebration of the senses across chaos, beauty and passion meet in Napoletango.

After acclaimed performances at the San Carlo Opera House in Naples, and a sold-out run in the Eliseo Theatre in Rome and across Italy, this spectacular musical starts its international tour with four performances at the London Coliseum from Thursday 4th - Saturday 6th August. Tickets are now on sale.

A vivid and vibrant Italian production, Napoletango tells the story of the Incoronato family, a travelling troupe of 20 entertainers, known in Naples for their special art and passion for Tango.

Like a noisy circus family, the Incoronato family used to perform in squalid taverns and town fairs. Now for the first time they have been invited to perform in a beautiful theatre...

What unfolds is a mosaic of scenes taken from everyday life in the ghettos, narrated by the music of two different traditions: the Neapolitan song and Tango. Starting with the set up of the dance company, it mixes rehearsals with the dancers' personal stories and the aromas of Italian cooking on stage and stunning Tango exhibition dances. But will the Incoronato family finally achieve their dream to perform on Broadway

Prepare to be dazzled by hilarious interaction, by hysterical and sexy dance, and by the captivating music that merges the Gotan Project with traditional Tangos like La Cumparsita, the classic Neapolitan songs with Hernando's Hideway, and an original theme by Luis Bacalov.
