Story

In the Heights centers on a variety of characters living in the neighborhood of Washington Heights, on the northern tip of Manhattan. At the center of the show is Usnavi, a bodega owner who looks after the aging Cuban lady next door, pines for the gorgeous girl working in the neighboring beauty salon and dreams of winning the lottery and escaping to the shores of his native Dominican Republic. Meanwhile, Nina, a childhood friend of Usnavi’s, has returned to the neighborhood from her first year at college with surprising news for her parents, who have spent their life savings on building a better life for their daughter. Ultimately, Usnavi and the residents of the close-knit neighborhood get a dose of what it means to be home.

A collection of our favorite reviews from professional news sources.

"In the Heights pulses to a joyful new beat, and youthfulness has its advantages. It made me think of  a much earlier valentine to to a New York neighborhood: Wonderful Town."

The New York Sun

Eric Grode

"One of the most polished and exuberant musicals now on Broadway. If you have any rhythm in your heart you shouldn't miss it!"

David Richardson

WOR Radio

New York Magazine

"A groundbreaking 21st-century musical. This extraordinary blend of old and new pushed the sound of Broadway deeper into new territory."

New York Magazine

Jeremy McCarter

The New York Times

"When this musical erupts in one of its expressions of collective joy, the energy it gives off could light up the George Washington Bridge for a year or two."

The New York Times

Charles Isherwood

Variety

"Blending hip-hop, rap, jazz, pop, salsa and merengue, this buoyant musical also nods reverently to the traditions of the show tune. An uncalculated charmer."

Variety

David Rooney

"In the Heights represents a change on Broadway: It's contemporary, heartfelt and full of hope."
