Program: Buena Vista Social Club (musical).
Buena Vista Social Club brings the legendary Cuban musical collective to Broadway, transforming the Grammy-winning album and acclaimed documentary into a vibrant stage musical. The story celebrates the remarkable musicians who created some of Cuba's most beloved music in the 1990s, when guitarist Ry Cooder brought together aging Cuban legends to record what became one of the most successful world music albums of all time. This musical captures the spirit of Havana's golden age of music while honoring the real artists whose lives were forever changed by their unexpected return to international fame.
Expect an evening filled with infectious rhythms, soulful ballads, and the irresistible energy of Cuban son, bolero, and mambo. The production weaves together the personal stories of these musicians with their extraordinary music, creating an intimate yet celebratory theatrical experience. This is perfect for music lovers, fans of Latin culture, and anyone who appreciates stories of artistic resilience and the power of music to transcend borders. Even if you're unfamiliar with the original album, the universal themes of dreams deferred and second chances make this an accessible and moving experience.
The Gerald Schoenfeld Theatre, nestled in the heart of Broadway's Theater District, provides an intimate setting for this musical journey to Havana. With just over 1,000 seats, the venue offers excellent sightlines and acoustics that allow every nuance of the live Cuban music to resonate throughout the space.
