Good Times at the Tropicana

Got back to Havana and most of us were keen to go to the Tropicana cabaret so we sorted out tickets and that night we headed out.

The taxi there was interesting as it´s not in the city center so we traveled through some different, more suburban neighbourhoods. Dinner included which was fancier than we´d expected.

The show was fantastic: dancing girls, lavish costumes and some fine acrobatics. The venue is open air, feeling like a theatre with the roof off. Impressive set and huge crowd, bigger than we´d expected. It´s worth getting tickets early and spending the extra to get closer, we were in the middle and it was good, but would have been better to be closer.

Show is caberet with acrobatics in between to keep things lively. The 2 hour show ran along at a good pace and we left feeling it was definitely worth going.

Can´t really say much else, you´ve really got to experience it first hand.
