About

Feel the heat and heartbeat of In the Heights, the smash musical that introduced audiences to the artistry and charisma of a young Lin-Manuel Miranda and Quiara Alegría Hudes. This Tony-winning musical gets you dancing in your seat with its game-changing blend of Latin rhythms, hip-hop, and traditional Broadway sounds.

During the span of three hot July days in New York City’s Washington Heights, bodega owner Usnavi and his neighbors strive for the American Dream while holding on to some “Paciencia y Fe.” Together, this vibrant, multigenerational community navigates the meaning of home in a rapidly changing neighborhood while celebrating with enough energy to light up the George Washington Bridge.

Directed by David Mendizábal (Mexodus), this genuine New York City story brings the block to life for audiences of every generation. Bursting with unforgettable music, electrifying choreography, and a story that pulses with humor and heart, In the Heights is a jubilant celebration of Latine culture, community, and the courage to dream.
