About this event
- 1 hour
THE TANGO is Suzy Mae, Ted Harris, Jeremy Woodland, Brick Jackson, Nicky Urban, Jess Hagge, and Tezz Yancey. The Tango’s all about 2-person scenes: in our jam, and our 2-person-focused form, the Echo.
Come Tango with us at Pack Theater, every second Thursday at 7pm. All skill levels welcome to our two-person-at-a-time jam. Bring a friend, or be paired with a stranger or a Tango player as you explore the characters and develop the relationship of an improvised two-person scene.

Frequently asked questions
No, but you may enjoy a drink next door at the Broadwater Plunge either before or after the event. No alcohol is permitted inside the theater. Yes, we know it used to be in the old space but we can't do that anymore.
There's typically plenty of street parking on Lillian Way, Santa Monica Blvd., and Vine St. Using a rideshare is preferred, especially if you're visiting the Plunge next door and having a drink or three.
You can either put the address for The Broadwater Plunge, which is at 6324 Santa Monica Blvd., or you can check your ticket confirmation email that you receive for the specific address for the theater space as well. (There are 4 venues + a bar there, we know it can be a lot.)
We allow late seating, but if it is a sold out show, we reserve the right to give your ticket away if you are more than 10 minutes late. Please allow ample time for parking, both LA traffic and parking in Hollywood suck equally. If you arrive late, please do what the person at the ticket stand says.
