FROM THE DIRECTOR OF RENT AND DEAR EVAN HANSEN, AND FEATURING A SOARING ORIGINAL SCORE BY MUSIC LEGEND GLORIA ESTEFAN AND HER DAUGHTER EMILY ESTEFAN. EXPERIENCE THE INSPIRING TRUE STORY LIVE ON STAGE.
Eleven-time Grammy Award® winner GLORIA ESTEFAN — whose music has sold over 100 million records worldwide — has shaped generations through song. Now, she joins her daughter and acclaimed singer-songwriter Grammy Award® nominee EMILY ESTEFAN, to co-write the music and lyrics for Basura, A powerful and bold new musical inspired by the true story of Paraguay's Recycled Orchestra, where young artists turn scrap material into instruments and music into possibilities. This world premiere musical continues Estefan’s global legacy — proving that music can rise from anywhere and change everything.
Based on the award-winning documentary film “Landfill Harmonic,” the new musical carries the sound of Paraguay’s Recycled Orchestra farther than anyone could have ever imagined. Basura is an unforgettable journey of rhythm, resilience, and hope — a radiant, heart-swelling reminder that even in the most unlikely places, you can build something beautiful.
BASURA is directed by the Broadway stage visionary MICHAEL GREIF (Rent, Dear Evan Hansen), written by National Latino Playwriting Award-winner KAREN ZACARÍAS (Native Gardens, Destiny of Desire). Grammy Award® and Tony Award® winner ALEX LACAMOIRE (Hamilton, In the Heights) is the musical supervisor, orchestrator, and arranger. Tony Award® winner PATRICIA DELGADO (Buena Vista Social Club) is the choreographer and KEN CERNIGLIA (Hadestown, Newsies) is the dramaturg.
