Biography & Autobiography. Performing Arts. Nonfiction. HTML:The eagerly awaited follow-up to the #1 New York Times bestseller Hamilton: The Revolution, Lin-Manuel Miranda’s new book gives listeners an extraordinary inside look at In the Heights, his breakout Broadway debut, written with Quiara Alegría Hudes, now a Hollywood blockbuster.
“[An] exuberant, unique, and invaluable record of dynamic, brilliant, and soulful creativity.”—Booklist (starred review)

In 2008, In the Heights, a new musical from up-and-coming young artists, electrified Broadway. The show’s vibrant mix of Latin music and hip-hop captured life in Washington Heights, the Latino neighborhood in upper Manhattan. It won four Tony Awards and became an international hit, delighting audiences around the world. For the film version, director Jon M. Chu (Crazy Rich Asians) brought the story home, filming its spectacular dance numbers on location in Washington Heights. That’s where Usnavi, Nina, and their neighbors chase their dreams and ask a universal question: Where do I belong?
 
In the Heights: Finding Home reunites Miranda with Jeremy McCarter, co-author of Hamilton: The Revolution, and Quiara Alegría Hudes, the Pulitzer Prize–winning librettist of the Broadway musical and screenwriter of the film. They do more than trace the making of an unlikely Broadway smash and a major motion picture: They give readers an intimate look at the decades-long creative life of In the Heights.
 
Like Hamilton: The Revolution, the audiobook offers untold stories, perceptive essays, and the lyrics to Miranda’s songs—complete with his funny, heartfelt annotations. 
 
This is the story of characters who search for a home—and the artists who created one.

A collection of essays in which McCarter collates interviews from various individuals involved in the process of bringing In the Heights to the stage and then later to the screen. Also included are essays from Quiara Hudes reflecting on key moments in the stage and film versions and the different ways she wrote them. And the main attraction (at least for this reader), are the full lyrics of the musical (the stage version) with Lin-Manuel Miranda's annotations.

For fans of either the original Broadway cast recording or the new film adaptation, this will be a fun read. While I was mostly in it for Lin's annotations (and the opportunity to see the Spanish lyrics so I could look up translations), the essays made for interesting reading. I was particularly fascinated by the section on international productions of the musical - doing In the Heights in Japan, the Philippines, or Norway must be a very different experience. ( )

When I turned 25 I went to New York City for the first time with two good friends. The very first Broadway musical I ever saw was In the Heights. Revisiting that show through the creators’ stories was such a delight! I loved hearing the behind-the-scenes reveals and the way that the show has impacted so many through the years. If you are a fan of the musical, don’t miss this one. The same friend who I saw the musical with in NYC listened to the audiobook with me on our recent road trip. We couldn’t stop grinning the whole time. ( )
