Where Have I Been? In The Heights.
Have you ever left a
movie, concert or a play wishing the show would start
over again immediately? Like, you need to
see it again? You just can't get enough of it?? Thats
how I felt the other night after the Broadway opening
of In The Heights.
Check out the above widget (you have to
pump the volume up manually). Those of you in the NYC
area may have already seen this on T.V. — it's the
opening number and is such a fun representation of
the entire score. Lin-Manuel Miranda (the cutie
rapper/ lead singer) wrote the first draft of the
play during his sophomore year at Wesleyan
University. How insane is that? [Insert sarcastic
comment here about what I accomplished
during my sophomore year at Siena College.
Ahem.] Now, he's made it to Broadway and will surely
snag himself a few Tony Awards for his work. I love
absolutely everything about that story.
Go see In The Heights while it's still in
previews. I predict you won't be able to get tickets
come March!
