"Buena Vista Social Club"

"Buena Vista Social Club,” a Tony and Grammy Award winning musical, follows the story of legendary Cuban singer Omara Portuondo. Once known as the “Queen of Feeling,” Portuondo’s voice was celebrated throughout Cuba – until she vanished from the spotlight. It has been years since the singer last entered a recording studio. Now she confronts her past for one more shot at stardom. “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. We will enjoy lunch at Max’s Opera Cafe before the show.
