Re: [TANGO-L] Tango , Milonga, Acting

On tango acting

I do not see it much. However I have spotted a guy once who was dancing with
his face. At first I thought the poor chap had a toothache. Nope, he simply
couldn t contain deep felt feelings as he led his partner into another
grapevine. I know it wasn t toothache since after the tanda he had a glass
of ice-cold water and went on grimacing to another di Sarli with different
girl. I do not quite understand it since I personally have to (and like to)
concentrate on my partner and do not have time to think about my facial
expressions (except for spontaneous smile, then again it is not an exception
since my partner usually brings it).

As I said I do not see acting at milongas much, I guess since most people
who dance long enough dance tango for themselves and for their partners.
Beginners could do it occasionally undoubtedly to relieve the stress of
learning or being under the misconception of the dance promoted by
Hollywood. The guy I have seen was not a beginner. Even more puzzling.
