“This production is magnetic, an energetic version of Lin-Manuel Miranda’s marvelous work. IN THE HEIGHTS and its subtext and themes are human connections, the power of neighborhoods, universal hopes and dreams that make for bold statements. Maybe Usnavi (Miranda’s alter ego) is not Homer and is not really a classical epic like the Odyssey, but in a way it is. It shows in a simple depiction, why and how a place becomes home and how a culture’s strength in finding positive ways to understand the American Dream….This is a sure bet family treat, and a perfect way to celebrate your summer theater season and an easier ticket to win vs the HAMILTON ticket lottery.” —VMediaBackstage.com
