"This show was great! The music carried the play all the way through. Wish I had more room in my seat because the music was made for dancing. So I was forced to just tap my foot and love the vibe. Great acting and a great story."

The orchestra… amazing … the solos (laud…piano…bongos… metals …) all of them are fantastics…

"The show was excellent. It bought back history. I went to Cuba for an educational tour a couple of years ago. It was one my best trips.
The battle is and continues to be realistic today. The theater, the music, the people were incredible performancers. Highly recommend for everyone to see."

Fun, thrilling and moving
"Even if you have never heard of Buena Vista Club's music, the compositions, dance numbers and featured musicians will delight audiences of all ages. The history of Buena Vista is intriguing enough to hold the audience's attention. Brief, momentary lulls dot the experience, but do not take away from the overall, enjoyable experience."

knowledge of Spanish and modern Cuban history would help you to enjoy.
"I didn't realize the singing was in Spanish and the dialogue was in English. Of course, the music was universal. However, I did enjoy the play, but to thoroughly enjoy it, you should know Spanish and have some knowledge of Cuban music history."

Why I enjoyed Buena Vista Social Club
"While the theme was serious, I was still able to enjoy the production and not get too immersed in the conflicted experiences of the revolution. At the same time, the factors that gave rise to some leaving and others choosing to stay were adequately dealt with and appreciated.
The music was outstanding. There was a lot that was new to me and that was refreshing. The production brought together some exceptionally talented musicians and dancers who made the experience rewarding for the audience.
Finally, I think the team of scriptwriter, producer, director should be commended for getting the balance right."

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.
