MARTHA TEICHNER: Brought to life on a Broadway stage: the old songs, as they were played in the 1940s and '50s at the actual Buena Vista Social Club, a members-only Havana nightclub for working-class black Cubans. It was shut down after Castro came to power in 1959. The events of the Cuban Revolution lurk at the edges of the show.
ACTOR: It's not your fault the world made us take sides. Until one day, there were only two types of Cubans. Those who stayed and those who left.
TEICHNER: Playing yesterday's Cuban music on Broadway, some of today's finest Cuban musicians. Most of whom now live outside Cuba. Because making a living there is tough.
