Last week the Adrienne Arsht Center was honored to host the Miami premiere of BABALU, Lucie Arnaz's loving tribute to the music of her father, Desi Arnaz. The performance featured a show-stopping star turn by Miami's own Raúl Esparza who left audiences amazed and enchanted!
Broadway dance diva Valarie Pettiford contributed a smoky voice and sultry moves and in a rare, special appearance, Desi Arnaz, Jr. set the stage on fire with his brilliant percussion!
