'IN THE HEIGHTS'
Winner of TONY AWARD 2008.
When they won the award, I was in NY and I went to see the moment in Radio City!
The musical is set in Washington Heights.
Yes, where I lived!!!
What a strange chance.
The story is about immigrants from Latin America.
I liked buying coffee and sandwich in a bakery which latino ran next to the station.
There were beauty salons which are look like one in the musical.
Washington Heights was always energetic.
I felt latin peoples atmosphere everywhere.
Their life, their history, reality of NYC.... their patriotism, then their future.
I was touched.
The music and dance also amazing!!!
BTW,
I couldn't understand the story more than half when I saw the musical in NY, but I could see it with subtitles today♪ So I finally understood every single word!!!!
Thank you for coming to Japan!!!
