  • Lin-Manuel Miranda’s first Broadway musical tells the story of a vibrant community on the brink of change in New York’s Washington Heights neighborhood. The windows are always open, the breeze carries the rhythm of three generations of music, and the biggest struggles can be deciding which traditions you take, and which ones you leave behind. In the Heights won Tony Awards® for Best Musical, Best Score, Best Choreography, and Best Orchestrations. Music and lyrics by Lin-Manuel Miranda; book by Quiara Alegría Hudes.
    Returning to the Kennedy Center following her turn in the pre-Broadway production of Gigi, Vanessa Hudgens played the role of Vanessa, with Anthony Ramos, who originated the roles of John Laurens and Philip Hamilton in the Original Broadway Cast of Hamiltion, as Usnavi, Ana Villafañe (On Your Feet!) as Nina, local D.C. actor Mateo Ferro as Sonny, Eden Espinosa (Wicked) as Daniela, J. Quinton Johnson (Hamilton) as Benny, original Broadway cast member Blanca Camacho as Camila, Saundra Santiago (Nine) as Abuela Claudia, Broadway cast member Rick Negron returning to the role of Kevin, Virgil Gadson (After Midnight) as Graffiti Pete, Arianna Rosario (On Your Feet!) as Carla, and original Broadway cast member Eliseo Roman reprising the role of Piragua Guy.
    The production was directed and choreographed by Stephanie Klemons, who choreographed the NFL Super Bowl ad featuring Eli Manning and Odell Beckham Jr. An In the Heights original Broadway cast member and Assistant Dance Captain, Klemons has a long history with Miranda’s work, having gone on to serve as Associate Choreographer for both Hamilton and Bring it On: The Musical.
    The production featured scenic design by Tony®-nominee Anna Louizos (In the Heights), costume design by Andrea Lauer (Bring It On: The Musical), lighting design by Helen Hayes Award-nominee Cory Pattak, sound design by Andrew Keister (Charlie and the Chocolate Factory), projections by Zachary Borovay (Rock of Ages), and Zachary Dietz (In The Heights) as Music Director.
    Part of Broadway Center Stage
    In a semi-staged concert format and joined by talent direct from Broadway and here in our nation’s capital, these performances shine a spotlight on the emotional heart of three beloved stories in compelling new ways-placing the artists, their vision, and their work Center Stage!

      Not guessing sorry. If there was a bootleg it would've been already on trading sites since it'd be a great way for the bootlegger to get money since as you can see it's in popular demand but theres no NFT date or anything about a video or audio so it's highly unlikely that theres a bootleg sorry. As for a proshoot the chances are slim because it's not actually a broadway cast. Sorry to be a kill joy I wanted this bootleg too.

    1) To those who are saying the costumes, choreography, and set are underwhelming, it's a semi-staged concert, not a full production. The budget is intentionally limited as well as the set and costumes.
    2) Actors put their own spin on characters. No one's trying to be a copycat of another actor. Lin's Usnavi was really energetic and playful while Anthony's was more serious and pragmatic. It's not to say he was broody all the time, his spin on the character was still fun and energetic but more in touch with his surroundings. I've listened to two of his audios and he was definitely more lively than portrayed in the video, it was probably a filmed run-through rehearsal I'm guessing.

    Best cast. For me, there's no musical that represent immigrats better that "In The Heights". In my country (Chile) lots of immigrants came here, and the discrimination for them is huge, and through this musical people can know how hard it is to be an immigrant, how hard is the life for them and the struggle.
    Lin made this masterpieces to represent a huge problem that most people ignore, the life of immigrants in USA. So seeing this people representing their roles with such pride makes me feel a ton prouder of being Latina.

    It's cool that Anthony plays Unsavi in the old "in the heights" and in the new one he plays the same person

    they did way better with nina’s costuming and hair this time, daniella’s on the other hand...eek. i didn’t like vanessa first outfit but i love her finale costume. nice to see they didn’t change benny’s or usnavi’s outfits though

    Ahh as much as I LOVE Anthony in Hamilton, it bothered me how a LOT of people in this comment section used a hamilton reference. as much as I LOVE hamilton references and i love Hamilton, we all know Anthony stopped doing Hamilton. We are all sad- but whenever he is in a new show, we can't just call him Phillip! I bet at first he'd appreciate it, but after a while it might get annoying for him. I don't know if this is true, but I think it's a cool idea to call him by his present role instead of his past role! :)

      Its fine to like him playing in the heights but if Hamilton is one of your absolute favourites than quite a few things might remind of that, it should be fine to reference them in the comments

    and am i the only one who doesn't like vanessa in this? i find her voice quite annoying and i don't think she suited this role
    also can we just appreciate that the piragua guy is from the original broadway cast?

    As a believer in reincarnation, I think it’s interesting that Philip Hamilton reincarnated into Usnavi in the theater world. Come to think of it-I guess the theater world is one place where reincarnation kinda sorta happens. You jump from role to role and you become person after person.
