Lin-Manuel Miranda: at the Tony Awards &

L

in-Manuel Miranda, who conceived the Tony Award-winning In the Heights and wrote the music and lyrics, is a new voice with an old soul. The show is propelled by the rhythms of hip hop and Latin music–uncommon sounds, to be sure, in musical theater–but the invigorating beat belies a musical steeped in Broadway tradition.

In the Heights follows a close-knit community of hard-working Latino immigrants as they strive for a better life; search for love; dream the American Dream; and create a haven, a home. The central figure in the piece is Usnavi, who, like Tevye in Fiddler on the Roof, is both leading man and storyteller.

“Fiddler is in the DNA of Heights,” says Miranda. “If you look at our opening number, it’s ‘Tradition’ with hip hop. It’s very deliberately modeled after ‘Tradition.’ Tevye speaks of ‘the circle of our little village,’ and in Heights, Usnavi starts with the business owners and widens the scope, moving on to the people who are important in his life.

Fiddler is about a community where nothing’s changed for hundreds of years. Heights is about a community where everything is changing everyday. And if we all come from different communities with our own tradi4

Lin-Manuel Miranda at the 2008 Tony Awards ceremonies tions, what do we take with us, what do we keep? When Jerome Robbins was directing Fiddler, he said, ‘This show is about tradition, and if there’s anything that doesn’t have to do with tradition, it’s out.’ For us, the watchword was ‘home.’ If there was anything in the show that didn’t have to do with the concept of home, we took it out.”

“I’m a lifelong New Yorker,” says Miranda, “and one of the things I love about Washington Heights is that it’s always been an immigrant neighborhood. In many ways, the show is a valentine to Washington Heights.”

It didn’t start out that way. Miranda began writing In the Heights in his sophomore year at Wesleyan University in Middletown,

Connecticut, and it was a very different show. “My high school sweetheart was going abroad to study in the Dominican Republic.

We’d been together for about four years, and this was my first time on my own. It was all about the angst I had over the relationship.

The first version was not about community at all. That came later, when I moved back home, back into my neighborhood, and realized how much material was there.”

But his college effort was such a success that two Wesleyan seniors, Neil Stewart and John Mailer, who had plans to start a theater company, told Miranda that they wanted to help him bring In the Heights to New York.

“The credit for this show getting from Wesleyan to Broadway really goes to Tommy Kail,” says Miranda. “He’s an incredible director. He’s excellent at making sure that everyone’s writing the same show, which is one of the hardest things to do in musicals.

Even before we had producers, he had us meet every Friday, bring in songs, bring in scenes, and pick them apart. There have been five different plots, and 60 cut songs. Writing this show was like my grad school degree.”

In the Heights opened offBroadway on February 8, 2007, and was an instant hit with critics and audiences.

It opened on Broadway on March 9, 2008 where it won the 2008 Tony Awards for Best Musical, Best Score, Best Choreography and Best Orchestrations.

There is a considerable amount of Spanish spoken and sung in the show, but it’s not necessary to be bilingual to understand the thoughts and emotions expressed.

“Most of our audience is your typical, theatergoing audience,” says Miranda.

“The overwhelming majority of people who come to see our show don’t speak a word of Spanish. And they come away loving it.

We’ve tried to use Spanish in the way that Jerome Robbins used dance: when we get to a point where English won’t suffice, we break into Spanish.”

In the Heights Tour Full Company Photo Joan Marcus 2009 Miranda hopes that In the Heights enables audiences to appreciate his culture, his neighborhood, his community. “What I want most is for people to be aware of the neighborhood that I love. I think what’s universal about the show is that we’ve all had someone in our lives who wanted us to do better.

We’ve all had a place we call home, or we’ve yearned to find home.” n 5
