From the photos, it does seem like Dante's clients tend to be older than 30 -- but I only know his taxi business, not his tango business.
That said, going to a milonga is a LOT different from seeing a tango show. Girllrig said she wanted to see a show (which might be a good place to start any tango exploration -- especially since you only have to stay awake until about midnight
). In this regard, I am almost certain you wouldn't be "hassled" at any of the major shows. They tend to attract a mild-mannered crowed. In fact, I vividly remember seeing a single woman at one such show (El Quarandi, a few years back). I remember her because I thought she was a little brave, since the rest of the crowd was groups and couples. If you are feeling a bit brave, I posted links on how to buy tango show tickets at a discount a page or two back in this thread.
