HBO Max has a description of the musical down below:
“Lights up on Washington Heights…The scent of a cafecito caliente hangs in the air just outside of the 181st Street subway stop, where a kaleidoscope of dreams rallies this vibrant and tight-knit community. At the intersection of it all is the likeable, magnetic bodega owner Usnavi (Anthony Ramos), who saves every penny from his daily grind as he hopes, imagines and sings about a better life. In The Heights tells the universal story of a vibrant community in New York’s Washington Heights neighborhood: a place 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. It’s a community on the brink of change, full of hopes, dreams, and pressures.”

Could you imagine?
When your college roommate shows up at your doorstep with the drawing he made for the poster of your first musical.

Which he somehow saved, for 21 years, and had framed for today.

For the fans
@Lin_Manuel, love watching @intheheights on @hbomax but that Easter Egg you put in there at around 29:30…you went there didn’t you? Now everytime I’m on hold, I’ll be smiling. And you have to make a full version of this. Thank you… #InTheHeightsMovie #Hamilton #YoullBeBack
