Casting and additional members of the creative team haven\u2019t been announced.<\/p>\n<p>First premiering on Broadway in 2008, In the Heights\u00a0is what helped launch Miranda into the theatrical stratosphere well before <a href=\"https:\/\/www.timeout.com\/newyork\/theater\/hamilton-1\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Hamilton<\/a>\u00a0made him a household name. The musical blends hip-hop, Latin rhythms and traditional Broadway sounds to tell the story of Washington Heights residents chasing dreams but holding tight to their community over the span of three summer days.<\/p>\n<p>At the center of the story is Usnavi, a bodega owner who dreams of returning to the Dominican Republic while trying to build a future in the neighborhood he calls home.
