In the Heights

Friday, October 31, 2008

I hopped off the bus and could smell the hotdogs. To me it's the best smell in the world. I was so excited I could not wait to go to Broadway because this was my 1st performance. When I stepped into Richard Rodger's Theater I was astonished. it was huge! I couldn't believe my eyes and the set was phenominal. Afterwards I was practically addicted to musicals. Between the dancing and lively feeling you get being there it was amazing. I was so compelled that I actually bought the album when I got home and still today listen to it. HaHa!!! In the Heights was by far the best performance I have seen yet and I would definitely suggest it to others interested in lively musicals.

About the Adventure

What theatrical elements combine to make a professional production in our nation’s theatre capital critically and/or commercially successful? Do you agree with the New York theatre critics’ picks for best plays, players, and playwrights of 2008? Throughout the fall semester we'll attend productions in New York City and share our critique of the newest musicals on the Great White Way, let you know what we think about Harry Potter star Daniel Radcliffe's performance in Equus, and explore the theatre behind-the scenes at Little Italy's San Gennaro Festival and the Lower East Side Tenement Musuem. We'll blog about our experiences with you here before you'll have the opportunity to read some of our more formal reviews in the Comenian. We look forward to your response to our critiques and hope that you'll join us in New York City this fall.
