The Shoemaker of Havana

Work:: The Shoemaker of Havana (S907940098)

...an absorbing Epic drama with original contemporary vocal and music score told with compelling theatricality.... The principal players here are Fidel Castro and Che Guevara, John and Robert Kennedy, Nikita Khrushchev, Alina Castro-Fernandez and Barbara Walters. And then there's Lisa Howard, the virtually invisible protagonist so pivotal to the story, for so long, sadly denied her rightful place in this intriguing narrative. There's a huge sweep of history here...over 60 years distilled into less than one and a half hours traffic on the stage. It's an Epic tale but the heroes are little people, the shoemaker Alvara Garcia and his devoted wife Eva.
