The company, declared a Cultural Heritage of the Nation in 2018, performs the classic Don Quixote, a season dedicated to Cuban prima ballerina assoluta Alicia Alonso on her 105th birthday.

Nunez and Reve captivated the audience on December 28 at the Teatro Nacional de Cuba with charm, vibrant chemistry, and supreme technical mastery.

Nunez is a principal dancer with the Royal Ballet in London, and Reve is a guest artist with that renowned British company and a principal dancer with the Queensland Ballet in Australia, who has never lost the habit of returning to his roots and honoring them with respect and affection.

The BNC will open 2026 with another performance of Don Quixote on January 1 at the Teatro Nacional de Cuba, with first dancers Anette Delgado and Anyelo Montero in the leading roles.
