http://www.miami.com/mld/miamiherald/2003/10/16/news/local/7024103.htmThe day before the renowned Cuban National Ballet took to the stage in Daytona Beach, two of its young dancers slipped away in a startling pas de deux, hoping for a new life in America.
Amador, who spoke to reporters at Rodriguez-Varela's office Wednesday, said the company's tours through the United States and Europe inspired him to defect.
"I began to see how people around the world live, what their individual capacities can achieve in an atmosphere of freedom," he told El Nuevo Herald.
