Get On Your Feet This Season!
This theater season, On Your Feet, the sensational Broadway hit, takes its unmistakable beats to the streets and out on a US tour! Be captivated by the music and moved by the story of Latino star Gloria Estefan's rise to fame, told alongside the heart-warming love story of her and her husband Emilio, a pair of Cuban immigrants who traveled to America and became two of the biggest names in the music business!
Loaded with Estefan's infectious pop classics, the show is directed by two-time Tony Award winner Jerry Mitchell with choreography by Sergio Trujillo (Jersey Boys). The show also features n original song co-written by Gloria and their daughter, Emily. With hits like "Conga," "Rhythm is Gonna Get You" and "Get On Your Feet," we guarantee that by the end of the show you too will be On Your Feet and dancing along with the cast!
Rhythm Is Gonna Get You
Gloria Estefan began her career in the band Miami Sound Machine, who released their debut album Live Again/Renancer in 1977. With their Latin-influenced synth-pop and disco, the group hit the big time in the eighties with tracks including 'Rhythm is Gonna Get You', 'Conga' and 'Dr. Beat'. Estefan later pursued a highly successful music and movie career, earning seven Grammys in the process, and miraculously overcame a potentially paralysing broken back in 1990.
All this time she was supported by her husband Emilio, a massive name in the Latin music industry, who also helped shape the careers of Ricky Martin, Shakira and Jennifer Lopez.
Did you know?
Gloria Estefan has earned seven Grammy Awards, a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame, an AMA Lifetime Achievement Award and has sold over 100 million records. All this despite being involved in a major car crash just five years after her first big hit which required a year of intensive rehabilitation.

One of the best EVER!
I laughed. I cried. I danced. Poignant and thoroughly entertaining. The storyline, supplemented by perfectly applied lyrics and song, made this my second favorite show of all time - second only to Jersey Boys. I have been going to Broadway Shows since I was a kid, growing up in New York City, and, at 71 years old, have seen some phenomenal performances. So for me to rank this show as the second best ever - is saying something. This is a show that the entire family will enjoy - albeit on different levels. ... Read more

On Your Feet : Indeed !
A truly inspiring and compelling story!
Wit, romance and the MUSIC!
The Rhythm is gonna get you, more than once during this show.
The foundation of the show is the orchestra and musical director Jorge Casas who drives the infectious rhythm via vintage Fender P-Bass.
The percussion section was precise and relaxed at the same time. Timbales and conga basking in the Cuba Libre.
The horn section was smooth as glass and opened up the score during scene changes and segues.
The story moves along easily as told though infectious song and colorful choreography. Here is where we see truly gifted performers deliver non-stop movement and shimmering harmonies.
Christie Prades (Gloria) and Mauricio Martinez (Emilio) are instantly lovable leads with charisma to spare. Whether in harmony, counterpoint or solo, superb performances by both.
The supporting cast and dancers are joy to watch.
Don't miss this one.
