I literally had to take a nap after I finished #InTheHeightsMovie because I was emotionally exhausted from the copious tears I shed. The music, the dancing, the choreography, the performances, the joy, the sadness, the beauty...
I was born and raised by the streets of NYC. The fire hydrants, the fire escapes, the stoops, the neighborhood folks that watched out for every kid on the block as if they were their own. #InTheHeightsMovie
I am not an immigrant, nor was my mother, but I was raised by them and among them and I learned something from every single one of them. #InTheHeightsMovie

On set cry of the day: Remembering 2008, flying home straight from my Abuelo Guisin’s funeral in 🇵🇷 to the second week of Heights Broadway performances.
I remember steeling myself for Alabanza, the eulogy, then Carnaval snuck up on me. 1/4
But @EliseoNY saw it before I did.
As Piraguero he sings, “Pa’rriba esa bandera...” and I join him for the harmony in the second half. We are face to face.
And he SQUEEZES my hand, the other to his heart, on
“Y cuando yo me muera...
Entiérrame en mi tierra”
& holds me up. 2/4
Tears pour down my face for the happiest moment in the show. 3/4
