Isa Antonetti in Buena Vista Social Club

Tartan Talent On Stage & Behind the Scenes

Buena Vista Social Club

When “Buena Vista Social Club” took Broadway by storm last year, it was the vibrant Cuban music and the fictionalized story of real-life legendary songstress Omara Portuondo that took center stage. But behind the scenes — and in the spotlight — was another powerful story: the impressive roster of Carnegie Mellon University alumni bringing this new musical to life.
