6.4. Dancing Performance - Options (depending on budget)- Alberto Soto and all

Proposal (Alberto Soto)
 

   t     Amount to be paid : 50% shall be paid 10 days before and the rest after the performance.

2.      Sound:  hotel sound equipment shall have availability USB and speakers

3.      Floor:  the dancers need to know the type of floor so that they can see what type of shoes to wear. They were at the Sheraton and they think the floor is not appropriate. If the Show is selected with “boleadoras”,  they need to know the floor.

4.       Place to change : They need a place where to change clothes immediately, this always impresses the audience

 5.       Price in Argentinean pesos (Exchange rate 5,9).

$a  2000 =339 u$s     = one couple  = 10 minutes  tango    +  10 minutes de folclore

$a  2500 = 424 u$d   =  one couple =  same as above but more sophisticated folclore de fantasía (malambo con bombos y boleadoras)

$a  4000 = 678 u$s    = 2 couples = same as above and some other dances (contrapuntos de malambo de cuchillo y espuelas y lanza)
