Berkeley Playhouse To Present Lin-Manuel Miranda's IN THE HEIGHTS

Berkeley Playhouse continues its 12th season of professional theater with In the Heights, the Tony-Award winning musical from the creator of Hamilton.

In the Heights is directed by Kimberly Dooley, music directed by Nicolas Perez, and choreographed by Allison Paraiso.

From the musical theater sensation behind Hamilton comes this spirited Tony and Grammy Award-winning story packed full of the rhythms of salsa, soul, hip-hop, and R&B.

Set over the course of three scorching summer days, this panoramic snapshot of a vibrant community on the brink of change is an absolute must-see production.
