I am not Latina, but a native New Yorker with tremendous love and respect for the Latino people and culture, Latino sister, neices, and our extended family. But to me, In the Heights is all of our stories, whatever neighborhood we grew up in. Its our love of family and heritage, our goals and dreams and fighting to achieve them. About wanting so much for our children, and hating to disappoint our parents, about reverence for our elders and perservering through stresses to keep it all together. It touched me. I laughed and cried and jumped to my feet to give a standing ovation every performance I attend, along with every single other member in the audience. I’ve seen In the Heights twice this year, will be going a third time this week-end, and plan a fourth in the Fall. I rave to anyone who will listen. I replay this broadcast all the time. The cd’s accompany me in every car trip. There are not enough great things to say about this show, its writer and producers, every one of its cast. Please see it with loved ones. It will blow your mind.

I can’t believe that I didn’t get to see this! I’ve loved In The Heights ever since they did the opening song on Macy’s Thanksgiving-day Parade. I can’t count the number of times I’ve listened to the cast recording and I can’t wait to actually see the show. To Paul & Robin, your daughter is absolutely amazing! She would have to be one of my favorite characters in the show. To Richard Olivo, your daughter is amazing as well. To Jane Adams, your son would have to be my favorite male in the whole show. Please re-broadcast this in Indiana! But for now, Paciencia y Fe!

will this be re-broadcast? I missed it as our local PBS station was having their annual auction. Or will it be available for purchase on DVD?

I saw this play about 2 months ago and it was AMAZING. It was the first Broadway play I was ever at and it was just incredible. All of the actors and songs and the set and just all of it was fantastic. It was a great first experience for me. So thank you PBS for posting this stuff, im so happy to see it and remember how awesome everything was. Thanks again.
