On a bar table, a half-empty glass awaits, with an uncorked wine bottle beside it. A melancholic bandoneon begins to play, quickly giving way to a voice that will tell us a thousand stories, bodies entwined in an intimate embrace expressing love and heartbreak, joys and sorrows. Everything intertwines, unfolds, and envelops us, immersing us in the world of Tango, where we immediately become a part of it.
Compañía Berretin was formed in 2024 from Vero Garcia's invitation to various artists from Tandil to be part of a proposal where not only tango is sung but also a story can be told through different artistic disciplines such as acting, dance, and of course, music. This is how Chelo Montesinos on bandoneon, Mariu Hernet and Gaby Gallese in dance, and Fer Caminos in circus performance joined. Later, other guest artists would join throughout the more than ten performances in which they have presented the work they have called a "Tango Musical."

Lyrics and Music: Chelo Montesinos (May 2024)
The whim begins timidly
souls contemplate each other upon arrival,
the fire and the pupils of the night
paint scenes as they gaze.
There are dreams that are forgotten with the years
but this one they won't forget
if one day they mention it to strangers, they will say:
it was beautiful, a whim and nothing more.
Compañía Berretin is made up of artists from Tandil
