Right in the middle of an exhausting but hopefully rewarding tec period for this Cuban musical in Paris. Based on the workshop from 2014 with 14 cuban dancers, 9 principals, 10 ensemble, 3 children and a 14 piece cuban band on stage it is going to be quite a phenomenon. The energy levels in the rehearsals and for the sitzprobe have been amazing. It all takes place in a grand ruined havana salon, of course inspired directly from my trip to Cuba for the workshop. First show 6th April.what a journey !
here is a video of the highlights of what has turned out to be a huge hit in Paris thanks to the massive efforts of the whole team
Carmen La Cubana, Theatre du Chatelet 2016
Saw it in Paris last week. A great show around a great set. Should come to London, possibly ENO?
