Catches the atmosphere of the Cuban revolution
"Catches the atmosphere of the Cuban revolution. The phrase that sticks with me was "...before today, Cuba had artists, doctors, shopkeepers and pickpockets. Now there only the ones who stayed and the ones who left." The talent was phenomenal. The music was energetic and emotional. "

LA MUSICA BUENA
"I bought the Buena Vista Social Club & Introducing Ibrahim Ferrer CDs in the 90s and love the music. When I found out a musical was made it was a must see. I loved the movement between 1958 and 1996, the story flowed seamless from past to then present. The musicians shined, the dancers, the set, the sonadors, everything was beautiful. The audience really got into it. It was wonderful to hear Manigua again. That song is my favorite along with Candela. I would go to see this again."

Beautiful - highly recommend!
"The music was fantastic! The performers — from the musicians to the singers to the dancers were such a joy to experience. The representation of the Afro Latino community on Broadway is beautifully celebrated at BVSC! The theater seats were not the most comfortable, but the view was excellent given that it’s a small theater. "

A Celebration of Soul, Rhythm, and Timeless Cuban Music
"Buena Vista Social Club is an unforgettable celebration of music, culture, and heart. From the very first note, the show pulls you into the soul of Cuba, blending powerful storytelling with extraordinary live music and vibrant performances. The musicians are simply phenomenal — every song feels alive, emotional, and deeply authentic.
The energy on stage is contagious, filled with joy, nostalgia, and a profound respect for the legends who shaped this iconic sound. The choreography, visuals, and storytelling beautifully complement the music, creating a moving experience that transcends language and age.
This musical is not just a performance — it’s a celebration of heritage, resilience, and the universal power of music to connect people. Truly uplifting, inspiring, and unforgettable. Highly recommended for anyone who loves culture, rhythm, and stories told from the heart. "

Authentic, very high quality play and musical performance
"The show has an incredibly high performance musically. Acting is also very well performed, the cast does a great job at acting, dancing and most importantly, singing. The play is not historically accurate and that may feel confusing."

" A Trip to Cuba"
"The moment it started I felt the authenticity of the musicians and I was transported to Havana, Cuba! The key to every performance is to believe the story you are being told, so I held my breath and they did not disappoint. I fell in love with the cuban vocalist and master guitarist! The Afro-Cuban dancing was exceptional and I could not stay still in my seat! I was lucky enough to see the great Cuban vocalist at the Cape May Jazz festival in her 90's......"

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.
