At Wesleyan University, IN THE HEIGHTS creator Lin-Manuel Miranda first brought his piece to the stage. As they say, the rest is history, and the production seen here would go on to change, evolve, and eventually collect four 2008 Tony Awards - including Best Musical and Best Original Score.
Miranda himself says of the clip featured below: 'Nina Rosario's first song in my first draft of In The Heights, which I directed at Wesleyan University's '92 Theater. In this draft, Nina is on her way home from her first year at Yale. For the lyrics to this song, go to Linmanuel.com/blog.'
