On July 30, Barnes and Noble welcomed In The Heights creator Lin-Manuel Miranda and members of the original Broadway cast and creative team to celebrate the release of the show’s vinyl cast album. Ghostlight Records has released a special 10th anniversary 3-LP box set, exclusively available through the bookseller.
In the Heights marked the Tony-, Grammy-, and Pulitzer-winning Miranda's Broadway debut as both a writer and performer. Miranda led the cast as Usnavi alongside a company that included fellow Hamilton alums Mandy Gonzalez, Christopher Jackson, Karen Olivo, and Seth Stewart, as well as Priscilla Lopez, Robin de Jesús, Janet Dacal, Andréa Burns, and Olga Merediz. The show won four 2008 Tony Awards including Best Musical.
