In The Heights tells the universal story of a vibrant community in New York's Washington Heights neighborhood, where a bodega owner, Usnavi, dreams of a better life for himself, far away from "the heights." His friends, his family, and his neighbors have dreams of their own, and when Usnavi's bodega sells a winning lottery ticket, the entire community finds itself on the brink of change.

In The Heights broke new ground on Broadway in 2008 with its salsa rhythms, Latin pop sounds, and rapped lyrics of the show that helped it quickly win national recognition, winning that year's Tony® awards for Best Musical, Best Choreography, Best Orchestrations, and Best Score. In The Heights launched Miranda's meteoric career which includes writing songs for the Disney films Moana, Encanto, and the upcoming The Little Mermaid, as well as directing the acclaimed musical film Tick, Tick, Boom for Netflix.
