Even though the American dream is now generations old, “In the Heights” is emphatically contemporary. The musical genre is ostensibly hip-hop, but utilizes a variety of genres. The central character, Usnavi (Kyle Beltran), generally raps his longer monologues and soliloquies, and the cast dances to hip-hop, salsa, and whatever else suits the musical mood.
