LATIN FEVER

Performed & choreographed by Darren Bennett and Lilia Kopylova

From the BBC’s ‘Strictly Come Dancing’

Following a sell-out season in 2009, Latin Fever returns for a UK tour.

Join Darren Bennett and Lilia Kopylova on an exhilarating journey into the vibrant world of Latin American dance.

The dazzling partnership from the BBC’s Strictly Come Dancing will be joined by four leading Latin American dancing duos for their breathtaking voyage, which takes them from the streets of Brazil to the bullrings of Spain by way of a vibrant mix of dance styles including the rumba, the cha-cha-cha and of course the tango.

Their glamorous journey begins with an explosion of Brazilian rhythms at the Carnival in Rio, before the audience is transported to the sultry clubs of Buenos Aires to be seduced by the passion and intensity of the tango. Cuba beckons with the cheeky cha-cha-cha and rumba, and then it’s time to boogie to the American dance halls of the 1920s for the swing and jitterbug. The voyage continues in Spain where the passion, aggression and drama of the bullring is brought to life in the glorious paso doblè.

A sensational live Latin band perform much-loved songs including the sultry Fever, the sizzling Besame Mucho, and the hip-wiggling Livin’ La Vida Loca.
