Buena Vista Social Club - Musical

Buena Vista Social Club - Musical at Connor Palace Theatre

A legendary album, a Broadway stage and a second chance for the music. Buena Vista Social Club arrives at Connor Palace Theatre on Friday, August 13 with the music and the people behind a legendary album.

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. Official materials frame the show as a celebration of musicians reclaiming and reviving their cultural heritage through music. That gives the production real emotional stakes wrapped inside the rhythm.

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. Playhouse Square's Connor Palace Theatre gives the evening a grand downtown Cleveland setting. A Friday date makes this an easy weekend plan. It lands in the final stretch of the run. Make it part of your summer plans. Get Buena Vista Social Club tickets for Friday, August 13.
