In the Heights

From the creator of Hamilton

Pittsburgh CLO present Lin-Manuel Miranda's debut musical. Before Hamilton conquered the world, In the Heights put Miranda on the map, an exuberant portrait of Manhattan's Latino community that won four Tony Awards and was nominated for the Pulitzer.

The story is set in the Washington heights neighborhood of Manhattan in a blistering hot summer. We follows a cast of characters from three generations, all of whom have a different relationship to their heritage and contrasting feelings about the changes engulfing the neighbourhood. With its score incorporating rap, salsa and Sondheim, In the Heights is a dazzling display of Miranda's songwriting talents, and dynamic portrait of a community not often given a voice on the musical theatre stage.
