In the Heights at Sydney Opera House

Get ready to be swept up in the rhythm and soul of Washington Heights with Lin-Manuel Miranda's (think Hamilton and Moana) electrifying musical, In the Heights.

This salsa-powered masterpiece has bagged four Tony Awards® and is bringing its vibrant street vibes to the iconic Sydney Opera House in 2024.

In the Heights at Sydney Opera House

Starring the dynamic Ryan Gonzalez (from Moulin Rouge! The Musical) as Usnavi, the charming Olivia Vásquez (also Moulin Rouge! The Musical, West Side Story) as Vanessa, and the charismatic Richard Valdez as the beloved Piragua Guy, In the Heights is a rollercoaster of love, dreams, and community spirit.

Set in a tight-knit Manhattan neighborhood, where the summer heat sizzles and the A-train offers the only escape, In the Heights turns the spotlight on Usnavi, who runs his family's bodega while dreaming of a return to the Dominican Republic. With him, a cast of community members as vibrant as the city itself navigates their hopes and challenges. Who holds the winning lottery ticket that could change everything? Is it the family dreaming of Ivy League glory, or the woman striving to secure her piece of the American dream?

Don't miss this spectacular musical that promises to fill the Sydney Opera House with the infectious energy and passion of a bustling New York summer.
