Energetic, entertaining, with Amazing music.
"Thought the show was wonderfully produced and performed. The music was world class and storyline great. If you do not speak spanish, it is helpful to read the meaning of the songs as described in the Playbill ahead of time.
Highly recommend. "

The BESSSSSTTTTTT Show on Broadway
"Don’t think about it. Just see it. I was dancing in my seat then I had to get up to dance. I felt like I was in an old club in Cuba. The singing was outstanding, the costumes, the set, the lighting. There were some emotional scenes that made my daughter cry. There were some scenes that also went into the history of Cuba. I want to go again, that’s how good it was, actually great!!! "

Amazing musical, a must see!!
"This musical follows a lovely story line about love and an old band getting back together. The two lead actresses are incredible but the music IS the show. Nostalgic, and romantic soulful Cuban music that makes it hard to sit still in your seat. Anywhere you sit in the theatre is a good seat! "

Fantastic, foot tapping show
"This was sheer joy from start to finish. Amazing musicians playing those mesmerising Latin beats. Great energy from the cast of singers and dancers. A must watch if you like Cuban beats. For a ‘juke box style’ musical the story fit well around the now well known Buena Vista Social club numbers. "

Do NOT miss this show!
"What did I like? EVERYTHING. First and foremost, the musicians and the music. Verve, virtuosity, soulfulness. Only thing missing was a dance floor for the audience. And the story was poignant, acting superb. If this show doesn’t win a bunch of awards, then life just isn’t fair. If I lived in NYC, I’d see it again. As it is, I’m already looking forward to the touring companies after a long run on Broadway!"
