Still my favorite performance of this EVER. Just so much chemistry and genius acting. I especially love the part when Usnavi is freaking out and Vanessa stops him and says “and it’s gonna be okay...” It just felt so real in that moment! Great job to the two actors here, so much subtlety that makes it feel like I’m witnessing a secretive moment between two real people. Truly brilliant; this will forever be my favorite!
that was brilliant! one of the best (besides the original Broadway) performances I've seen! In The Heights was one of the options for our next winter musicals for school and i was hoping to land the role of Vanessa. but i may not have the voice for it and i think they removed it...
Absolutely fabulous!!! They nailed it, Sonny, Vanessa and Usnavi! This is one of, if not the best I've seen orther than the original cast! Mind blowing that they're highschoolers! Well done!
the way vanessa bites her lip when sonny is leaving annoys me so much-- like, he may be a kid, but he can have opinions and emotions too, and these characters completely ignore that. petition for sonny to be taken seriously.
I think it might have just been the actress laughing at him dropping the money but i do get what you're saying, in general sonny isn't really taken that seriously
This is a highschool performance!? Holy smokes!!! This is better than some of the profesional ones I've seen. You guys are awesome!!!
wait wtf are you serious? Thats amazing!
They go to one of the best performing arts high school in nyc
the guy who says “woah” during the kiss is me omg😂
Yea
This was a really beautiful performance. I love the nervous Usnavi and the uneasy Vanessa. Great work to the both of them! Amazing
Why are there no comments about how awesome this performance was?!?
There are like 46 comments...
I love how he drops the money and has to pick it up and still act tough. That’s why Sonny is probably my favorite character
When sonny dropped the money and had to pick it back up that way was so in character. Great improv.
That kiss though🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻 Either they’re dating or they want to be. 😂
This Sonny is the best thing.

Ahh I felt this too! Felt so real!
Totally agree!!
Usnavi looks like Lin from the side!
And his mannerisms are the same too! Great job!
Kk S is that a Hamilton reference?
Velvetinec what do you mean? Do you not know Lin played Usnavi..?
@@eavv5837 do you not know Lin wrote In the Heights too
@@alexac4293 Oh yeah, I know i just read it wrong seeing "From the other side" instead of "From the side" Curse me and my blindness
this is absolutely incredible, both Usnavi and Vanessa were perfect, i cant believe how amazing this is its such a professional level!!

I would quite honestly give my life to watch this school's whole performance, kills me that there are only three uploaded videos of their production 😭
carnaval de barrio is floating around somewhere, too!! their daniela is *_phenomenal_*
Oh they go to LaGuardia. Now I see why this was better than most high school productions.
this was sooo incredible!!! and your chemistry was just amazing
rewatching this and I keep forgetting this isn't the OBC
Absolutely fabulous!!! They nailed it, Sonny, Vanessa and Usnavi! This is one of, if not the best I've seen orther than the original cast! Mind blowing that they're highschoolers! Well done!
you are both INCREDIBLE. one of the best school productions I've ever seen
He acts exactly like Lin he is a perfect usnavi
3:40 .... Either they are/were dating or they have fantastic acting chemistry.
High School??!! I shouldn't be surprised....they're from NYC. I've got to search and watch the rest of it now. Carnival was spectacular too.
I probably watched this video more than 10 times now.. this is sooo good.
HE'D BE TAKIN' THE BUS

this vanessa is way better than that one that was in the Corbin bleu broadway cast
Made me cry
this was great :)
Wow. Talent!
the way vanessa bites her lip when sonny is leaving annoys me so much--
like, he may be a kid, but he can have opinions and emotions too, and these characters completely ignore that.
petition for sonny to be taken seriously.
Uh
Her biting her lips ain’t got SHIT to do with not taking him seriously and she said he had a point right after
I think it might have just been the actress laughing at him dropping the money but i do get what you're saying, in general sonny isn't really taken that seriously
That Vanessa's Voice...hot Damn.
SOO GOODD
This is perfect
Sooo good!!!
"How do you get this gold shit off?"

Lol my big brother goes here and all these characters seem vaguely dominican
I don't mean to be racist, btw.
Tris How was that in any way racist? You didn't even give any background information to clarify how that might even be mistaken as racist...😑
tuhs did better
