Performances are Fridays and Saturdays at 8 p.m., Saturdays and Sundays at 3 p.m.
Conceived by Lin-Manuel Miranda, “In the Heights” tells the universal story of a vibrant community in New York’s Washington Heights neighborhood – a place where the coffee from the corner bodega is light and sweet, the windows are always open and the breeze carries the rhythm of three generations of music.
It’s a community on the brink of change, full of hopes, dreams and pressures, where the biggest struggles can be deciding which traditions you take with you, and which ones you leave behind.
“In the Heights” is the winner of the 2008 Tony Awards for Best Musical, Best Score, Best Choreography and Best Orchestrations, and also saw success as a film in 2021.
Music Mountain Theatre’s production is directed by Liz Gonzalez, with the choreography of Valeen Williams, and under the musical direction of Jenna Parrilla Alvino. The cast includes Tristan Takacs as Usnavi De La Vega, Tara Keelen as Nina Rosario, Angelica Blickenderfer as Vanessa, Jarret Martin as Benny, Mike Prikril as Kevin Rosario, Jennifer Pilchman as Camila Rosario, Jo Wymer as Abuela Claudia and a strong cast of performers.
