Comment on Theatre Review: In the Heights by Janelle Watkins

Rene,

I also saw this production on opening night and I share most of the sentiments that you outline above. Like many opening night performances the singing and dancing seemed to get better as the actors found their voices (or confidence)and by the end I thought they all performed very well.

With regard to the controversy, I understand where it comes from, but I will also say that it was a breath of fresh air seeing actors of various creeds on stage and rocking it out for all to enjoy.

I would say the tickets are well worth the price of admission for a feel good show.

I just saw this production last night and even without having read this review prior (and perhaps I should have and saved myself some money), I am in near complete agreement with the points made. I felt like there were symbols that irrelevant (like the drain) and I certainly did not see the benefit in the use of the microphone at all.

I know I said above that I would have saved some money having not seen the show, but I am still glad that I did – purely to have a chance to discuss it with others.

Hey Guys,

I gave this wine a try over the weekend and I loved it. My friends and I had a blind taste test and we all picked this wine as our favourite. I was really shocked by the quality of the wine. I think the package is cool and everything..but at the end of the day what matters is what is inside the bottle.

The sparkly cap is pretty cool – no one else has it either. Nice wine for a gift. Try it out.

I saw this over the weekend and thoroughly enjoyed the performance. I thought it was staged just beautifully and a great use of lighting. The costuming was inventive and cleverly functional throughout the show. I am always happy to see Megan Follows. I remarked that it seemed like throughout the show she appeared to look younger and younger. I’m not quite sure how, but perhaps through her vivacity and lightness in the role.
