Mariela Franganillo is widely regarded as one of the best tango dancers
and teachers of her generation, in addition to being a great
choreographer and
producer. Born and raised in Argentina, she learned to dance tango in
the milongas in Buenos Aires before studying with Gustavo Naveira and
dancing with his
Tango Troupe in 1990. Early highlights of her career include dancing in
Los Tangueros at Teatro Cervantes and at Casa Blanca in Buenos Aires. A
fter moving to the U. S., she performed at the Smithsonian Institute and
performed & taught at Stanford University before moving to New York City
where she currently resides. Mariela has performed in productions at
Lincoln Center, Town Hall and Carnegie Hall, with companies such as NY
Tango,
Piazzolla & Beyond, Avantango, X-Tango and Eternal Tango. She is
proudest of her most recent producing venture, SWANGO, which mixes the
unique
styles of Argentine Tango & West Coast Swing. Mariela conceived and
choreographed the show, together with Robert Royston and was joined by
Tony Award
Winner Rupert Holmes on the book. She was part of the Broadway cast of
Forever Tango, performed with Julio Iglesia’s stage show and at the
Paquito D'Rivera Tribute at Carnegie Hall and teaches at Dance
Manhattan. A uniquely gifted teacher who has given workshops across the
United States,
Canada and Japan, Mariela brings a fresh enthusiasm for tango that is
melded with polished skills, years of experience and a legacy that
stretches back to the
golden-era of tango.
