Buena Vista Social Club - Musical

Buena Vista Social Club - Musical at Connor Palace Theatre

Some musicals ask you to follow a plot. This one asks you to feel the room. On Tuesday, July 27, Connor Palace Theatre hosts Buena Vista Social Club, a Broadway musical that turns a landmark recording into a night of music, memory and second chances.

The story follows Omara Portuondo and the people around her as Havana's past comes back into focus. Songs and emotion carry the drama as much as the dialogue does. This is not a familiar jukebox night that borrows a title. It is a Broadway musical built around a landmark album and the world that made it matter. For anyone drawn to Cuban music, rich storytelling, or a production that blends performance and memory with real sweep, the room is where it comes alive.

Broadway materials describe a tale of big dreams and second chances, while the official study guide places it in 1990s Cuba, where the music itself becomes the engine of memory and identity. Connor Palace is one of Playhouse Square's historic downtown theatres, with the scale and atmosphere to make a big production feel like an occasion. A Tuesday date turns an ordinary week into something with a plan in it. It falls early in the run. Bring someone who loves music that makes you move.
