From the sexy, spontaneous rumba to the slick footwork of the cha-cha-cha, this is a show that’s guaranteed to get heads nodding and feet tapping.
Direct from a sell-out run in the West End’s Peacock Theatre, Havana Rakatan is now bringing all the heat of a Cuban summer to the UK. Jazz, mambo, bolero, son, cha-cha-cha, rumba and salsa all come alive in dazzling dance displays, full of Cuban passion.
Featuring one of Cuba’s most popular Son bands live on stage, this is a captivating and colourful journey through the dance and music of a truly unique country.
“A brilliant band and the dancers’ energy is infectious.” The Guardian
“Such infectious feel good entertainment, I’s already mentally booked a flight to Cuba by the time the curtain went down.” The Stage
“Rip-roaring entertainment… expectations were fulfilled to the point of a full-throated standing ovation.” Time Out
