Danza Contemporanea de Cuba prepared a new dance performance for these days. After their last season success in the Island with Carmina Burana, they will present Consagracion. This premier is our opening today. Since we’re talking about stages… get ready because May comes very theatrical. Though there ́s much more, as usual.
Following the line but in Music, we suggest another premier with Teatro Lirico Nacional and the piece Romeo and Juliette. But again, a lot of artists will perform and you can follow them all here. Have a plan!
In Cinema, huge 3D screening in Chaplin. In Comedy, Robertico gets back to Miami. In Visual Arts, a Cuban artists expo over there too. Don’t miss anything.
See you around!
