...first take a stroll from the hotel through gorgeous, weather-worn Old Havana, where many of the palaces and plazas date from the 16th and 17th centuries. Highlights include the Teatro Nacional and Plaza de la Catedral, with its nearby open-air market for Che berets and other tourist kitsch. For a brush with real Cubans and a sense of the island's emerging private economy, stroll over to Cuatro Caminos, a farmers' market and photographers' paradise full of colorful fruits, flowers and the ever whimsical fly-covered goat heads...

An apprenticeship with the innovative opera director Jean-Pierre Ponnelle led to her 1986 European debut at Venice's Teatro la Fenice, and her work is now seen regularly at London's Covent Garden and Paris' Bastille Opera, as well as in such American cities as Houston, where her joltingly fresh takes on Puccini's Madama Butterfly and Britten's Billy Budd opened back to back in January...

To the Portuguese, who daily see new headlines about political corruption, Damned Cocaine (Maldita Cocaina) is less madcap romp than pointed satire. The Roaring Twenties return, with characters modeled on colorful real-life denizens of that era, and the setting is Maxim's, then a well-known Lisbon night spot.
