IN THE HEIGHTS to Open Next Month at Gallery Players

Vibrant, touching, and thought-provoking, In the Heights tells the story of the changing cultural landscape of Washington Heights, and makes us ask, what is home? We follow a young bodega owner, Usnavi, his cousin, and the rest of the neighborhood. as they navigate the times in Washington Heights. This modern musical engages the audience, and makes them consider their own role in their families, their neighborhood community and in all of New York City.
