"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!"

I know its a true story which makes it even more emotional.
Since I am hispanic, and a senior, I remember many of the songs

and my best friend and we had a ball. "

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.
