Lin-Manuel Miranda announces new book IN THE HEIGHTS: FINDING HOME
On the heels of announcing his award-winning musical film adaptation In the Heights would be moving its release in the UK and Ireland, Lin-Manuel Miranda shared some more exciting news via his Twitter account.
Miranda has announced In The Heights: Finding Home, which records 20 years of the life of the musical, from his early doodles to the upcoming movie that will be released this summer!
In the Heights: Finding Home reunites Miranda with Jeremy McCarter, co-author of Hamilton: The Revolution, and Quiara Alegría Hudes, the Pulitzer Prize–winning librettist of the Broadway musical and screenwriter of the film. They do more than trace the making of an unlikely Broadway smash and a major motion picture; they give readers an intimate look at the decade-long creative life of In the Heights.
Like Hamilton: The Revolution, the book offers untold stories, perceptive essays, and the lyrics to Miranda’s songs—complete with his funny, heartfelt annotations. It also features newly commissioned portraits and never-before-seen photos from backstage, the movie set, and productions around the world. Fans of Miranda’s work will need to snap these books up quickly!
This is the story of characters who search for a home—and the artists who created one.
The book is now available for pre-order here
