(Applause Libretto Library). Music and Lyrics by Lin-Manuel Miranda, Book by Quiara Alegria Hudes. Conceived by Lin-Manuel Miranda, In the Heights is an exciting musical about life in Washington Heights, a tight-knit community where the coffee from the corner bodega is light and sweet, the windows are always open, and the breeze carries the rhythm of three generations of music. During its acclaimed Off-Broadway and Broadway runs and now a hit movie musical, In the Heights became an audience phenomenon and a critical success. It's easy to see why: with an amazing cast, a gripping story, and incredible dancing, In the Heights is an authentic and exhilarating journey into one of Manhattan's most vibrant communities. And with its universal themes of family, community, and self-discovery, In the Heights can be enjoyed by people of all ages and backgrounds. Among the musical's many accolades are two Drama Desk Awards, a Grammy Award for Best Musical Show Album, and a nomination for the 2009 Pulitzer Prize for Drama. Find out what it takes to make a living, what it costs to have a dream, and what it means to be home... In the Heights.

Title: One of the best musicals of the last years
Review: One of the best musicals of the last years. Lyrics are clever, funny and quite heartfelt. I live in Mexico and I can appreciate a lot of what the culture of latin people in the U.S. (Specially in N.Y) means to many. I can relate to the family bound relationships and the singular humour and vibe that latin people have, although I think this is a human story that anyone can relate. The music is amazing and reading this book while listening it, can make you feel the blood flowing in the heart of the characters.Definitely one of my favorites!

Title: Recommended reading for fans of Lin-Manuel Miranda
Review: A I am new to hip hop, having the written lyrics to this fantastic musical gave me an even greater appreciation for the music and story. This tribute to his family's neighborhood and ethnic culture is overdue and deserves a place in America's list of Broadway hits.

Title: Very happy with my purchase 🙂
Review: The product was better than expected. It didn't even look like anyone has touched it all. Got it for about $10 when the original price is about $15. Definitely glad I took a gamble with this one. Also didn't take very long to get to me which is a huge plus!

Title: Perfect!
Review: It's amazing. That's the simplest way to put it. I absolutely love it, I'll walk around my apartment just singing my heart out or just sitting down and reading this beautiful musical Lin created. It's great to finally see a musical that Latino people like myself are finally seen in.

Title: Love this. Well made
Review: Love this. Well made. I like the pictures included near the middle of the book from the original cast. Note: this is the full script of the play (along with lyrics to the songs, which make up most of the play), but it does not include the actual music (the score).

Review: A great purchase for any musical or writing enthusiasts. The book is exactly as described, containing the full book and lyrics of In the Heights. It is separated into two acts and the characters, setting, and musical numbers are clearly laid out in the first few pages. The structure is easy to follow and any overlapping lyrics are clearly indicated, allowing the reader to better understand how they work together rhythmically. As far as modern musical librettos go, In the Heights is one of the more densely packed ones, and it is definitely worth buying if you're a fan of Lin's fast-paced style.
