In the Heights

Music and Lyrics by Lin-Manuel Miranda
Book by Quiara Alegría Hudes
Conceived by Lin-Manuel Miranda
Directed by Nicholas C. Avila
Choreographed by Sara Templeton

Running May 27 - June 24, 2023, matinee and evening performances available

Composer Lin-Manuel Miranda has become an international star over the last few years thanks to his seminal musical Hamilton. The Tony Award-winning In the Heights, with a book by Quiara Alegría Hudes has become one of the most cherished musicals of the 21st century. The music takes its cues from the diverse Latin community it represents, infusing hip-hop, salsa, merengue and soul music into the score and with lyrics about love, life, community and the American dream.
