Cuba Libre, or “Free Cuba”, is the Latin corner in Poznan where one is freed from one’s own inhibitions to be immersed in a unique, fun-filled atmosphere. This is indeed a fine definition of what a Latin-inspired club should be, where all seven days of the week one can gyrate to the rhythms of salsa, merengue, bachata, samba, and more. The club hidden in a backyard overwhelms with its extraordinary expansive interiors where guests can comfortably set themselves on leather couches, enveloped in intimate lighting, and order from a large selection of wines. Cuba Libre is indeed a place where everyone, regardless of age, background or musical preferences simply has a splendid time and an unforgettable experience, helped by DJs, dance instructors, and its rather special, exotic cocktails. This then is the Latin Fiesta that Poznan had been waiting for, and is now finally here!

PERFECT WEDDING
You might want to attend a “Perfect wedding” in Poznań! The “invitation” is for September 16th in Earth Hall on the grounds of the Poznań International Fair where the Perfect Wedding, a performance by Teatr Kwadrat is being held. Directed by Marcin Sławiński, it stars Ewa Kasprzyk, Marta Żmuda Trzebiatowska, Katarzyna Glinka, Ilona Chojnowska, Paweł Małaszyński, Andrzej Nejman, and Maciej Kujawski. The story line proceeds thus: on the morning of his wedding, the groom wakes up in his hotel suite with an unknown beautiful woman in his bed. At the same time his fiancée knocks on the door. What will happen next? “Perfect wedding” combines romanticism with a sense of the absurd, and mathematical comedic precision. The baroque wedding, deliberately kitsch perfectly suits the sequence of improbable events that are possible only in the best farces which follow in the much appreciated English genre.
