In The Heights review 4/12/08

Posted: 4/12/08 at 10:13pm

WOW!...This show was great. My new favorite...The only understudy was for Grafit Pete..The guy that played him was Ricki (can't remember last name)

I expect Lin Manuel Miranda to win a tony..and Many Gonzalez..Robin De Jesus and Karen Olivo kicked but..they were all great

sorry for the short review...i really dont have time to post more

EXPERIENCE an exhilarating journey into one of Manhattan's most vibrant communities, where the coffee from the corner bodega is light and sweet, the windows are always open, and the breeze carries the rhythm of three generations of music. Welcome to In The Heights, a new musical that feels like home.

With an amazing cast, incredible dancing and a gripping tale of hope and self-discovery, In The Heights is Broadway's hottest hit! The New York Times calls it, "A musical about chasing your dreams and finding your true home, with enough energy to light up the George Washington Bridge. A SINGULAR NEW SENSATION!"

When I saw it Thursday it was Rickey Tripp. I thought he was great, then again I never saw Seth.

Does it have a storyline? I have searched the web and can only find a description of the experience rather than what the story of the show may be... mind you I don't really think I have an opening to fit this show into my schedule anyway...

Certainly has a storyline and you're missing out, it's a great show.

It's a series of vignettes surrounding a community of latinos in Washington Heights during the course of 3 days. Each character has his/her own story, and at the center is Usnavi, the local bodega owner who serves as the narrative thread throughout the show. Hard to describe in terms of linear plot without giving too much away, but rest assured there is definitely a cohesive storyline, and it's a very satisfying theatrical experience. So if you can find a way to squeeze it in, I highly recommend you do so.

I am so jealous...Lin Manuel Miranda will definitely get the Tony this year.
