Night Waves

on BBC Radio 3

With Richard Coles. Though the Tropicana nightclub show epitomised the prostitution and racketeer-imbued atmosphere of fifties Havana, it survived the revolution and is now a mainstay of the Cuban entertainment industry. As the show arrives in London, Philip Sweeney examines its colourful history and its role in modern Cuba. And Bill Buford delivers his weekly comment on life across the Atlantic.
