In the Heights
Drama Theatre at Sydney Opera House, Sydney
Presented by Sydney Opera House in association with Joshua Robson Productions
From America's musical mastermind, Lin-Manuel Miranda (Hamilton, Moana) comes the quadruple Tony Award® winning, salsa-fuelled musical about a vibrant community in Washington Heights.
20th July to 25th August '24 in 9 weeks. Tickets $79 to $134
Starring Ryan Gonzalez (Moulin Rouge! The Musical) as Usnavi
Olivia Vásquez (Moulin Rouge! The Musical, West Side Story) as Vanessa
Latin music extraordinaire Richard Valdez as the loveable Piragua Guy
It's lights up on Washington Heights, a close-knit neighbourhood in Manhattan, where the heat is stifling and the A-train is the only way out.
Trapped running a debt-ridden bodega, Usnavi longs for a simpler life in the Dominican Republic. Alongside him, a community as vibrant as the city itself yearns for change. A winning lottery ticket is sold, but to whom? Is it the family who long to send their daughter to an ivy league school; or the woman desperately trying to find a home?
Feel the pulse of the neighbourhood with Lin-Manuel Miranda's debut musical, as he seamlessly weaves storytelling with contemporary beats, hip hop, salsa, and Latin rhythms. A colourful, vibrant, joyful musical that will sweep you up in its celebration of community and cultural pride.
