    OCU presents Tony-winning ‘In the Heights’ Broadway cast member to guest direct   OKLAHOMA CITY – Lin-Manuel Miranda’s debut musical “In the Heights” will be staged April 22-24 at Oklahoma City University, with a 36-member cast led by guest director and choreographer Luis Salgado of the Tony Award-winning Broadway production.  “The show is about community, it's about family, it's about home, and we invite everybody in the OCU area to be a part of this great experience,” Salgado said. “Revisiting this musical at OCU is re-visiting a perspective of validation, self-worth and cultural pride. We get to go deep into the concepts of belonging, of being, of accepting, of searching for what home really is.” “In The Heights” will be presented on OCU’s historic Kirkpatrick stage, 2501 N Blackwelder Ave., in three performances: 8 p.m. April 22 and 23, and 3 p.m. April 24.  “In the Heights” features music and lyrics by Pulitzer Prize-winner Miranda and a book by Quiara Alegría Hudes.
