Argentinians flying in New York

Watch out for flying Argentinians at this off-Broadway production. De La Guarda is more than a show...it is an experience! Upon entering the renovated Union Square Bank building, you are ushered downstairs to their social area for drinks, and a chance to check your coat and mingle with other guests. Five minutes before showtime, the staff gives you a shout to head back upstairs where the festivities begin.The lights go out and you are standing in a crowd of strangers when the show literally falls from the sky. De La Guarda has a certain rhythmic vibe created by the beat of the drums, the stomping of feet and screams as the cast flies across and down, to interact with the audience(which stands and moves throughout the 70 minute show). Performers run along the ceilings in unison and you cannot help but look up and follow them with your head cocked back. Expect to get kissed, danced with, undressed, and even taken up into the sky for a ride.
