Oh. My. God.
I just got the In the Heights OBCR. I haven't even seen the show yet but it's already blown me away. I've watched basically every television performance they've done. I've listened to the songs of their MySpace for hours on end. I screamed when I heard the Tony nominations. I am in love with this show.
But back to the cd. It is so amazing. I got it last night and I was trying to listen to it but I fell asleep after "In the Heights". The first song, haha! I was so tired. So, I've been dancing to the cd all day. It is FABULOUS. If you don't have it, go get it! It is so incredible. And I find myself relating to so much of the story, it's ridiculous. I had to hold back some tears. I'm a big girl. Ha!
The cast performed on The View on Thursday. They were the SHIT. Whoopi and Sherri kept saying how incredible the show was and how cute Lin-Manuel Miranda was. I kept yelling at the TV in agreement. God, I love In the Heights. It's not like I've followed the show from Off-Broadway but I'm really proud of the show. I remember being excited even before I knew what the hell the show was though. Ha! Lin had his little YouTube videos up... the anticipation was killing me. I kept telling people, "The Heights is starting previews tonight." I was such a dork.
It truly is something new and inspiring. It's always amazing to see real stories on Broadway, do you know what I mean? Stories that people put their sweat and blood into. And stories that mean a lot to people. So, you go In the Heights! And bring home lots of Tonys- you deserve it!
