The Tony Award® winning Broadway sensation is here
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.
Presented by Sydney Opera House in association with Joshua Robson Productions
