Hi, sorry to bother you, but I was wondering if you could tell me more about the In The Heights workshop, because I can't find much info about it online. What characters were in the workshop but not the Broadway version? For the characters that were in both, how did their stories/personalities change between the workshop and the Brodway version? And was the workshop ever performed live? Again, sorry to bother you!

Its fine!!! I’m still relatively new to the workshop because I’ve only really listened to each song once (other than the ones with Lincoln in them) but I’ll tell you what I know and anybody can add on if they feel I left something out!As far as characters in the workshop but not in the Broadways version, I think there were only two characters taken out??? The first one is Alma, who was Benny’s mother (?) and I think she was only in two songs, though I adored her part in the finale! The second is my beautiful gay child Lincoln, who was Nina’s brother. From what we can tell in both the workshop and his solo “I’m out”, his parents weren’t really accepting of him and he had a HUGE crush on Benny. Nina eventually sold him out and told Benny about Lincolns crush. Lincoln later leaves home and at the finale, we know he is standing in the station and is kinda lamenting. 

Usnavi and Benny were both kinda more focussed in woman than they were in the on Broadway version. Usnavi wasn't really our soft coffee boy and he was kinda more… confident????? in the off-broadway version. Benny was really checking oblivious and kinda rude. He was also a bit insecure because at one point he pours his heart out and he’s kinda like “I think I’m ok but also not and I need to be ok help.” Then Vanessa is really only there to flirt with Lincoln a little and then be there and get concerned bc Nina won’t answer her calls. Nina is a young innocent girl in the workshop who is really only pinning for Benny and she doesn’t really have any of the struggles she does on Broadway. Though she kinda stops being innocent at the end and me really??? like??? that??? Because Lincoln kinda points out how shitty Benny is but at the wrong time bc Benny finally changed but its too late and Benny is like “I love you!” and Nina is like “I know but I wish that was enough.” And that’s kinda when she realizes everything with Benny isn’t all sugar and spice and everything nice. And based off of what she says during the finale, she says that she’s never young again, and it seems like that kinda took away the innocence of life she still kinda had???? I’m bad at analyzing things.

Also, i believe the workshop may have been performed but I don’t know that it was performed in a theater or something because all I know is the workshop was recorded at some sort of performance of it. Hope that helped!
