"All the world is a stage..."

As we get ready to open the Regional Premiere of "In The Heights" at CASA0101 in, Boyle Heights, Los Angeles, CA. I am reminded why I have always loved live performances and why it was so important to me to be part of this Tony Award winning production. It's not often, if ever, the stories of hope, success, determination love and community are told through hip-hop and latin rhythms by a cast of young people of various cultures. Lin-Manuel Miranda wrote a story HE could be cast in. I know with each performance we will inspire young people to create art that tells THEIR story regardless of color, culture or socio-economic background. I am inspired every night I have the privilege to be a part of this show. I hope you will join us and experience the love of "In The Heights!"

"I regard the theatre as the greatest of all art forms, the most immediate way in which a human being can share with another the sense of what it is to be a human being."- Oscar Wilde
