A backstage breakup between tango partners spirals into total chaos when Roxana ends her relationship with Mateo five minutes before their performance. Their argument erupts onto the stage, where Gianpiero, an eccentric 'artistic genius' of a director (and allegedly a descendant of Julius Caesar), decides to transform the disaster into his greatest masterpiece.
He casts Mateo as a werewolf, Roxana as a swan, and begins manipulating them in front of a live audience.
What follows is a gloriously unhinged collision of Argentine tango, carefully crafted conspiracies and pure theatrical madness, led by a director who bows while the actors call an ambulance. A dark, physical, absurd comedy where even the audience can’t tell what’s scripted anymore.

Reviews

 


'The Swan, The Werewolf and Gianpiero is an energetic, knowingly chaotic piece of metatheatre powered by committed performances, sharp audience interaction and a deliciously monstrous central ego. By the end, the wreckage belongs to everyone, but the credit, inevitably, belongs to Gianpiero.' - Theatre Life Review - ★ ★ ★ ★
