Cuban dance extravaganza in-store for Birmingham Hippodrome
A loveably loopy Cuban dance extravaganza is planned at Birmingham's Hippodrome from Tuesday until November 5.
Vamos Cuba! has won four-star reviews and will visit the second city's biggest theatre.
Venue spokeswoman Kate Evans said: "From the creators of the smash-hit dance sensation Havana Rakatan comes Vamos Cuba!, the spectacular new summer show from acclaimed Cuban choreographer Nilda Guerra.
"The show is set in the crazy chaos of Havana airport, where families are parted, lovers reunited, and time flies when you're having fun. In a place of new beginnings and old romances, where reality calls and dreams take flight, we experience the joys and vibrancy of Cuban life with all the passion and humour that embodies the Cuban spirit.
"Vamos Cuba! is an exuberant mix of traditional and modern dance styles including salsa, rumba, cha-cha-cha and reggaeton, with a live band led by Julito Padron, a DJ and a cast of the hottest dancers Cuba has to offer.
"Come early and experience the Rumba Rum Bar, or join one of our free salsa classes and celebrate Cuban culture in a riotous evening of live music and dance."
Meanwhile, Birmingham Hippodrome will welcome further performances of Million Dollar Quartet tonight and tomorrow.
Starring Jason Donovan, it tells the story of how four stars made rock'n'roll history.
