Went to a fun local production of "In the Heights." Great voices, though, seeing the show for the first time, I couldn't help but think that all of the ballads -- and there are many -- are power ballads. Does no one but Kander and Ebb see the quiet things?
Also, terrific 10-piece orchestra, though the sound system could have used a little work. You have to understand all of the lyrics to understand the story, and that wasn't always possible.
