(RANDOLPH, NJ) -- The Marielaine Mammon School of Music, Performing Arts and Music Technologies at County College of Morris (CCM) presents this fall's musical In The Heights from November 6-9, 2024. The play is set in the lively Latino neighborhood of Washington Heights, Manhattan—where sweet coffee flows from corner bodegas, windows are always open and the air resonates with the rhythm of three generations of music.

“Featuring music and lyrics by the award-winning songwriter Lin-Manuel Miranda, In The Heights tells the story of a vibrant New York City community,” said Director Marielaine Mammon, chairperson of the Marielaine Mammon School of Music, Performing Arts and Music Technologies at CCM. “Rhythmic melodies and Latin dances help tell the tale of love, hope and heritage."
