      An explosion of high voltage salsa and sizzling music from Cuba’s hippest new dance show.

    Direct from Cuba, the high energy Kings of Salsa features the very best of Havana’s cool street salsa and hip hop scene, seamlessly mixed with traditional Afro Caribbean moves, world class contemporary dance and the Cuban classics, Mambo, Rumba, and Cha Cha Cha – all backed by the spectacular 9-piece band Cuba Ashire. The performers unleash their Latin rhythms and stratospheric brass arrangements, showcasing a slice of cool contemporary Cuba never before seen on stage. This stunning new show, created by one of Cuba’s best young choreographers, features some of the Island’s best dancers and musicians paying homage to the great Cuban performers and dance styles from this intoxicating island, with a cool contemporary modern twist showing young Cuba today. The electrifying mix of performers, musicians and choreographic styles makes this a show not to be missed.

    Critics have said "The sheer exuberance, whistles and thunderous applause would indicate that the show’s feverish euphoria brings even the coolest audience out in a sweat!"
