An epic musical journey and cultural celebration.
Papá Cuatro is a world-premiere musical that tells an extraordinary immigrant tale of a generation of Venezuelan musicians who were forced to leave their country in hopes of a better future, taking with them centuries of traditions and the joyous sound of an iconic Latin American string instrument: El Cuatro.
