"This show was bright, vivacious, engaging and socially relevant. I gleaned from the show that it’s never too late to reconnect or right a wrong. The actors are world class; the music, singing and dancing will have you shimmying in your seat! "

Two hours of absolute musical joy!
"Buena Vista Social Club was two hours of pure joy. The musical tells the story of a group of Cuban musicians who record a legendary album, "Buena Vista Social Club," in 1996. The play won five Tony's this year! The music and dancing were exceptional. I especially loved the fact that there were 11 original musicians from the iconic album! Viva Havana! Fantastic!

Who had more fun—the cast or the audience?
"What fun! Wonderful music and the musicians were more than equal to the task. The choreography honored the traditions of Cuban music and added a layer of creativity and was beautifully executed by all the talented dancers. The set was perfect and scene changes were effortless. The costumes were gorgeous. Everyone in the cast was outstanding! And the audience…around me the people were dancing in their seats. What a wonderful two hours!!"

Magnificent
"The talent of the musicians and performers left us in awe. The music is spectacular whether or not you understand Spanish. At times the passion and emotion brought me to tears. Having seen the original Buena Vista Social club perform at the Beacon 25 years ago I can say the talent in this group is comparable. I’ll see this again for sure!"

Beautiful show!
"The album came out just as I was falling in love with Latin America, and the 25th anniversary was a landmark for me. The narrative, music, and choreography were spectacular. While the show's agnosticism on the 1959 revolution surprised me a bit, I like that it explores the terrible decision facing all Cubans on whether to stay or leave. The ebullient American record producer appears as important to the project, but the show mostly avoids portraying him as the Western savior who discovered the music and pulled it out of the mists of time."
