A Spicy Night Out in Havana
You are about to discover one of the most dazzling places where to spend a brilliant night out in Havana in your Cuba holidays. The place is widely known as A Paradise Under the Stars and the name is Tropicana.
Tropicana?s Show is recognised by many as a great spectacle, featuring a variety of the very best of the Afro-Cuban rhythms such as Son, Guaracha, Mambo, Guaguanco, Timba, Rumba and of course the well known Salsa around the World.
This amazing Cabaret also takes pride in having the best popular dancing school in Cuba. Needless to say you will be up to one hell of a treat for your eyes.
Tropicana opened its doors more than half a century ago and it has hosted the best performers in the American continent such as Nat King Cole, Carmen Miranda, Cheo Feliciano and Bola de Nieve.
Those were years of great corruption and vice which spread out in the highest levels of the Cuban society. Tropicana was the centre of attraction for the wealthiest looking for some good fun. Prostitution and gambling were part of the menu.
Things have certainly change after the revolution led by Fidel Castro which overthrew Batista in 1959. There is no more gambling in allowed in Cuba and Tropicana is not an exception.
The area where the Cabaret is set up is rather vast. This outdoors Cabaret has room for over 1000 people and it features well over 100 artists including singers, dancers and circus performers.
Havana is full of excellent places where to spend a night out but nothing like Tropicana will remain in your mind as one of the best shows you have ever seen in your entire life.
