16tony.xlarge6.jpgA week ago, Lin-Manuel Miranda, the mind behind the Broadway musical In The Heights, was nervous as hell wondering what the TONY Awards would think of him. Turns out that they love him and his musical love song to Washington Heights. In the Heights won four TONY Awards, including Best Musical, Best Original Score for the Theater, Best Choreography and Best Orchestrations. While the musical didn’t win 13 awards to go with it’s 13 nominations, it won some of the most important ones.

Felicidades to Lin-Manuel and the entire cast and crew (now if anyone would like to throw me some tickets so I could see the show…..)

Heights60.jpgI’ve been wanting to see the Broadway musical, In The Heights since it opened, but now with 13, count ‘em 13 TONY Award nominations, I want to see it even more.

“In the Heights,” a rap, hip-hop and salsa flavored musical about Latino families in Washington Heights, led the Tony nominations, which were announced on Tuesday morning, with 13 nods, including two for Lin-Manuel Miranda, the show’s 28-year-old creator and star.
