[ABT Fan]

Thanks, abatt. I’m really curious what Buena Vista will be like. I love their music.

[abatt]

Yes the music is fantastic.  The Atlantic Theater is a very small off Broadway house with a small stage.  I don't think the dimensions allow for any  large ensemble  dance numbers.

Buena Vista Social Club - The Musical got a positive review, and the choreography received praise.  NY Times review attached.  I suspect this will go to Broadway next season.  Seeing it in January at its current Off-Broadway venue.
