• joe.finkle says:That is the dummest thing I've ever seen. And I saw Jane Eyre, The Musical.
  BTW, Washington Heights is not the top of the world, it's not the top of New York City, it's not even the top of Manhattan. The A train continues into Inwood and the 1 train keeps going past Inwood into Marble Hill and Kingsbridge in the Bronx.February 23, 2008 12:50 PM PST (Report Abuse)

• chanteuse_ar says:I saw this play and it's magnificent. I really hope they release a cast recording. And in response to joe.finkle, the term "top of the world" is used in the play figuratively. The story is about Washington Heights and some of the people in the story never leave the neighborhood so to them, Washington Heights is the top of the world.March 14, 2008 8:31 AM PDT (Report Abuse)

• bpstickney says:I saw this show last summer when it was an "off-Broadway" production. I was completely blown away!! This show is completely AMAZING! Go see it everyone. It's portrayal of the Heights is right on point. I remember coming home (I live in the Heights), and seeing kids play baseball in the street at 1:30 A.M. How can you not love that?!March 15, 2008 9:58 PM PDT (Report Abuse)

• zabmm3 says:I grew up in Washington Heights. I lived on 191 st and st nicholas ave. went to George Washington HS. This was during the 60's and I loved living there at that time. Its great to know that there are people out there that want to bring out the artistic side of Washington Heights. I live in Calif & hope to catch the show someday!March 25, 2008 8:08 AM PDT (Report Abuse)
• »»--(¯`Judi´¯)--»» says:hangupurhangups..you're right. I've lived in Inwood for 30 yrs.The Heights & Inwood use to be great years ago.People now just don't take care of their neighborhood like they use to.It's now one of the most overcrowded & loudest place in NYC.But this subject has nothing to do with the play.I hope to get the chance to see it & see how true to life it is.March 28, 2008 9:26 AM PDT (Report Abuse)

• bmorton_2005 says:I just went to In The Heights last week in New York, and it's one of the best shows I've ever seen. I've seen Cats, Guys and Dolls, Rent, Chorus Line, Curtains, and many others and this show was AMAZING!!!! Except for a couple of "bad" words this is definitely a show to take the whole family to see. Even teenagers will love it because of the up to date music and amazing dancing.
  To sum it up WOW!April 02, 2008 11:51 AM PDT (Report Abuse)
• lildoll252 says:omg I can't to see this show, specially like I live in the heights, and I want to see how they portray us lol, anyway Joe Finkle why in the hell are u hating, stop talking who the hell cares where the trains go if Washington Heights was not that important why would they waste their time to make a brodaway show about it, think about it, ok peace now...April 06, 2008 10:20 AM PDT (Report Abuse)
• NYer says:Well done, entertaining, great music and acting. Most impressive is the story about the process of writing this play, and that the writer-star is only 28 years old and already has a show on Broadway. He has succeeded in bringing to the mainstream a story about Latinos in Washington Heights that reveals the values of Latinos everywhere - something most Americans have never been interested in exploring on their own. I wish him enormous success.April 07, 2008 6:18 AM PDT (Report Abuse)
• coachrob56 says:I simply can not wait to see this show. I love the feel of Washington Heights...it is a neighborhood that is alive in culture thriving in latin culture. I hope the show portrays it accurately.April 30, 2008 8:32 AM PDT (Report Abuse)
• sk8erdude0587 says:This show is AMAZING!!!!!
