This electrifying mix of high voltage Latin music and sizzling choreography comes straight from the streets of Havana! Kings of Salsa is a hot new show, filled with the sounds and movement of this intoxicating island, and showcases a slice of contemporary Cuba never before seen on stage. The renowned young Cuban choreographer Roclan Gonzalez Chavez has gathered some of his island’s greatest talents to perform a spicy blend of cool street salsa, Afro-Caribbean hip-hop, contemporary dance, and Cuba’s classics: the mambo, rumba, and cha-cha-cha. It is made all the more electric by the Latin rhythms and stratospheric brass arrangements of the spectacular nine-piece band, Cuba Ashire. “The dancers of the Kings of Salsa exercise their mastery of [these dances] to perfection, as if dancing were as essential to life as breathing and the beating of the heart.” (Hamburger Abendsplatt, Germany) Series Sponsor: HSBC
