Open 8.30pm Sun

    • This beautiful Vedado mansion is the headquarters of the renowned theatre troupe Teatro Estudio. Almost every Sunday night, its courtyard hosts well-selected concerts by trovadores, singer-songwriters and young talents in the making. The stage is just a small concrete deck, and there are only a few plastic seats, so arrive early to bag a good place near the front or you’ll be sat on the floor for the performance.
    As shows are usually publicized by word of mouth, phone the venue for more information.
