On their fourth visit to the northern country, the members of this talented group of children performed in Tampa, New York, and Washington DC, the capital, where they received the respect and affection of the public.
The last presentation was at the Cuban Embassy in the United States. La Cucarachita Martina, the well-known children's story passed down from generation to generation, was the story in the version of these cheerful “bees” to say goodbye.
In D.C. they also performed at the Imagination Stage Theater with Tin's version of the popular fairy tale Cinderella by French writer Charles Perrault (1628-1703).
Only this is Cinderella according to The Beatles. A brilliant idea by Cremata that, in addition to narrating the princess story, allows the audience to experience the music of the legendary Liverpool quartet.
La Colmenita, Unicef Goodwill Ambassador since 2007, was founded on February 14, 1990, “what a day for their birth, the day of Love, Valentine's Day, that's why they give us so much love,” said Ambassador Lianys Torres, head of the Cuban Mission in the United States, referring to the group.
For her part, Cremata recalled a previous performance at the diplomatic headquarters. He mentioned those who made that tour possible, which was dedicated to the Cuban anti-terrorist fighters who at that time were unjustly imprisoned in federal jails.
Tin dedicated a special thought to the late Argentine-American activist Alicia Jrapko.
