In the Heights
Robyn Goodman, producer In the Heights and Avenue Q

Dear Mike Diamond, Your comment re In the Heights that "it's a far too sanitized portrayal of a neighborhood in decline -- where are the muggings, the rapes, the drug addicts?" is like asking Terrence McNally where are the queens, the slings, and the poppers? I am shocked that a publication like this would allow such stereotypes to be perpetrated. But I guess, as a show of mine states, "everyone's a little bit racist."
