".Long before composer Lin-Manuel Miranda turned the life of Alexander Hamilton into the blockbuster, epic musical Hamilton, he created, with bookwriter Quiara Alegría Hudes, In the Heights, a beautiful and simple, yet just as impressive, musical that captures the hopes and dreams of a group of neighbors in New York City. In the Heights follows a young shop owner and the members of his tightknit community as they encounter change and discover what it means to be "home." With just a few small shortcomings, Desert Foothills Theater's production of this Tony-winning musical features an exceptional cast and solid direction, along with an in-the-round design that brings an intimacy and immediacy to this universal story...." -Gil Benbrook, Talkin' Broadway (click here to read the complete review)
