First of all, can I just say, In The Heights was AMAZING! I loved every single minute of it. There was not one minute when I was bored. I felt every song had a purpose (you know sometimes when there is a number and you're like SHUT UP? not in this show).But what I liked most that it was genuinley a nice simple, innocent story. Yea There were a couple of suggestive themes, and a bad word or two, but thats like PG. There was nothing twisted about it, and people of all ages could relate and identify with the characters. And I mean for Lin Manuel Miranda, to write a show, and have it on broadway, and win a very well deserved tony is oustanding.
The Cast was great. The new Usnavi was really good. When I went in I was thinking I wish I saw Lin Manuel Miranda, but JAVIER MUÑOZ was oustanding. The two standouts for me were ANDRÉA BURNS, who had a great stage pressence, and stole the show everytime she was onstage. The Second was JANET DACAL, who was on for Nina, I thought she was fantastic, I think she looked the part, I believed she was qa freshman out of college, and I never would have thought she was an understudy. I could go on but, I won't bore you.
The Choreography was very well done, every dancer had it down, and it went with the music.
GO SEE IN THE HEIGHTS!
