With a book by Marco Ramirez (The Royale), director Saheem Ali (Tony Nominee, Fat Ham) leads an ensemble of visionary performing artists, including a band of renowned musicians from across the globe and a music team led by David Yazbek (Tony Winner, The Band’s Visit), and choreography by Patricia Delgado (Spielberg’s West Side Story) and Justin Peck (Tony Winner, Carousel). Buena Vista Social Club™ is an homage to the artists of yesterday—the ones who survived upheaval and oppression to make the music they loved.
Inspired by true events, the new musical Buena Vista Social Club™ brings the iconic Grammy-winning album of pulsing Afro-Cuban music thrillingly to the stage.
In 1950s Havana, a group of young musicians creates a sound that shakes the world of Cuban music—until the revolution changes everything. Forty years later, the band is brought back together to record the songs they left behind. With decades of heartbreak fueling every note, they unexpectedly go on to create the greatest-selling world music album of all time, immortalizing their songs and their legacy.
Inspirado en hechos reales, el nuevo musical Buena Vista Social Club™ trae el icónico álbum ganador del Grammy vibrando con música Afro-Cubana emocionantemente al escenario. En La Habana de los años cincuenta, un grupo de jóvenes músicos crean un sonido que sacude el mundo de la música cubana – hasta que una revolución política pone fin a todo. Cuarenta años después, la banda se reúne para grabar esas canciones que dejaron atrás. Con décadas de angustia alimentando cada nota, ellos inesperadamente crean el álbum de música mundial más vendido de todos los tiempos, inmortalizando sus canciones y su legado.
Con libro de Marco Ramirez (The Royale), director Saheem Ali (Tony Nominee, Fat Ham) lidera un conjunto de artistas visionarios, incluyendo una banda de músicos renombrados de todo el mundo, y un equipo musical liderado por David Yazbek (Tony Winner, The Band’s Visit) y coreografía de Patricia Delgado (West Side Story de Spielberg) y Justin Peck (Tony Winner, Carousel).
