IN THE HEIGHTS
I did catch IN THE HEIGHTS at an early screening a couple weeks ago, and it’s killing me that I haven’t been able to gush about it with anyone until now. I’m not ashamed to say that I started cry-laughing during the first number and didn’t stop until the post-credit scene (yes, you should definitely hang through the credits for a treat). I can’t explain the overflow of emotions I felt, seeing the all-Latinx cast bursting into the streets of Washington Heights in song and dance. I strongly recommend watching this one in a theater, if you feel comfortable with it. It’s exactly what the theatrical experience is made for, IMO—sharing laughs and tears with a community around you. Go enjoy it!
