My daughter is discovering Aimee Mann so we have been listening to a lot of her music in the car. This is our favourite album.
Always love sharing and seeing what people are listening to. 🙂

This past weekend was my birthday; so my partner and went to NYC on a mini vacation. On our last night we went to see Little Shop of Horrors at The Westside Theatre. While in the city I took him past The Majestic; which is where I saw my first Broadway play (The Phantom of the Opera). #plays #culture #littleshopofhorrors

Another great book detailing how the Broadway musical got onstage and also the detailed pre and post production of the film version. I hate that COVID is now in the history books and is creeping into all the new stuff I‘m reading!

I‘ve been slightly obsessed with In the Heights since watching their Tony‘s performance back in 2008, and I loved the movie as well. So getting to learn more about the show‘s creation and seeing Lin-Manuel Miranda‘s annotations included with the lyrics was exactly what I needed. If you enjoy this show and are even slightly interested in Broadway musicals, I highly recommend checking this one out.

This movie y'all! I LOVED THIS AS A KID! Maybe not exactly a horror movie, but I'm not going to lie, the plant did scare me as a kid.

Listened to the audio with the print book so I am counting this twice. I did the same with the Hamilton book and I recommend it because the photos are gorgeous and it‘s so neat how they juxtaposed photos from the movie next to the same scenes of the original broadway run. Hearing about how it‘s been adapted in other countries in their own languages was awesome 🤯 +11 pts #BookSpinBingo #Screamathon #Scareathlon #TeamSlaughter #Spookoween

In the Heights was the first movie I saw in the theater after everything closed down in 2020. It was a perfect choice, with its amazing musical numbers so vibrant on the big screen.

As with Hamilton, In the Heights has more layers than I could take in on one viewing, and of course, there's an interesting backstory. ⬇

UnabridgedPod So, I was thrilled when I found out that there would be a companion book for the new movie (as there was for Hamilton). I loved reading about the origins of the musical, about its journey to the stage, and about the changes that Lin-Manuel Miranda and Quiara Alegría Hudes made for the screen adaptation. Jeremy McCarter does a great job delving into the fascinating story behind the musical. 3y
LiteraryinLawrence Both the movie and this book are fabulous!! 3y
UnabridgedPod Agreed 💯!! 3y

The very first NYC Broadway musical I ever saw was In the Heights when I was 25. Revisiting that show through the creators‘ stories was a delight! I loved hearing the behind-the-scenes reveals & the ways that the show has impacted so many through the years. If you‘re a fan of the musical, don‘t miss this! The same friend who I saw the show with in NYC listened to the audiobook w/me on our recent road trip. We couldn‘t stop grinning the whole time.

BkClubCare Fun story, great pics 3y

CRIED THE WHOLE TIME. 😭🥺😍 “In the Heights” captured a place in my heart the first time I heard “96,000” on the 2008 Tonys - and this book encapsulates everything that is so, so special and beloved about it. Family, found and biological. Friendship. Community. Hundreds of stories that we all share, no matter what, by sheer virtue of our humanity. 💖 #intheheights #linmanuelmiranda #quiaraalegriahudes #jeremymccarter
