Lights up on Washington Heights!
Before Hamilton became a global phenomenon, before Lin-Manuel Miranda became a household name, a little show called In the Heights shook up Broadway with its hip-hop and salsa soundtrack and big, bilingual heart. In the new book In the Heights: Finding Home, Lin-Manuel Miranda, Quiara AlegrÃa Hudes, and Jeremy McCarter tell the story of the show’s humble beginnings, from rehearsals ina bookstore basement to the Broadway smash (and soon-to-be feature film!) that created an unbreakable community and a new kind of family for everyone involved.
Busboys and Poets Books is honored to partner with Penguin Random House to showcase this groundbreaking musical-turned-feature-film! Join Miranda, Hudes, and McCarter for a very special In the Heights Virtual Book Launch on Tuesday, June 15 from 8:00 to 9:00pm ET on Zoom. Sure to be an unforgettable conversation on creativity, community, and finding home, this is your chance to hear directly from the creative team behind the timeless story of how one neighborhood—Washington Heights—can speak to the world.
Your ticket includes admission to this exclusive event, a hardcover copy of In the Heights: Finding Home ($40 retail price- offered 10% off for this event), as well as sales tax, shipping, and handling. Please contact Busboys and Poets Books through books@busboysandpoets.com with any questions.
We can’t wait to see you there!
