Meet Me in Buenos Aires
Following her Off-Broadway debut, Florencia Iriondo comes to Edinburgh to premiere her new, soulful music-storytelling odyssey that explores how love – in all its Platonic expressions – morphs through family, centuries and continents. Embark on a tapestry of songs and stories told through the lens of Florencia’s travels, and those of the family that came before her. 'At the center is the radiant presence of Iriondo herself' (TheaterMania.com). 'Her greatest gift to the audience is her voice' (NewYorkTheater.me). 'Audience acclaimed. Must-see!' (Show-Score.com).

You don't need to like musicals in order to LOVE this show! It hits you straight in the heart. Absolutely loved it and cannot wait for the music to be out on Spotify, it was beautiful.

A Favorite. The only fringe show I attended twice (consecutive days)
To anyone migrating, this hits home. Florencia actually takes you around the world and back to Buenos Aires where is impossible not to meet her.
A fresh take on love and travel but mostly on loss and self discovery. Florencia sings her heart out and all rounder musical that explains perfectly the duality of missing home and not going back. The way she tells her story just drags you in and the hour does feel like 15 minutes. You are immerse in a a true journey with amazing soundtracks that i found my self singing the second time around.
But most importantly it feels very true "Porteño" . If you have ever been to Buenos Aires and/or feel in love with its people, this is right who we are. I felt there in the middle of the family table. Thank you Florencia! Thank you fringe!
