Buena Vista on Broadway
"I liked the way each number was introduced in which a prior short story is told to set each number to make a lot of sense. In other words the numbers did not come out the blue but from a true historical context, played with the sabrosura only Cuban music provide. Edwin, a PR lover of Cuban music. "

Interesting use of the original music to tell a different story.
"I enjoyed this show. The singers and dancers were wonderful. I loved the original film and the soundtrack. I enjoyed seeing the music used to tell a different story. The story takes the audience on a journey with its characters and keeps you in suspense right to the end. I highly recommend this show for anyone who loved the original soundtrack, as well as for those who have no history with the original film or music. I liked it well enough to see it again."

About
Buena Vista Social Club
It’s been years since legendary singer Omara Portuondo last entered a recording studio. Once known as the “Queen of Feeling,” her voice was celebrated throughout Cuba—until she vanished from the spotlight. But when an ambitious young record producer brings her a rare opportunity, the elusive diva must finally reckon with her past.
Hailed as a "jaw-dropping, soul-stirring must see" (The Washington Post), the Tony® and GRAMMY® Award-winning Buena Vista Social Club is a journey through music and memory into the beating heart of Havana. A world-class company brings the story of the iconic album to thrilling life in this tale of big dreams, second chances, and music that needs no translation.
