  • Lin-Manuel Miranda got to adapt his breakout hit, In the Heights, off of the wave of praise and attention from Hamilton, but it works. It's a charming musical about ions, dreams, and finding community despite those who would separate us. Plenty of people have cozy winter/Christmas rewatches; this should be a cozy summer rewatch, paired with sangria and popsicles.
