TERRY GROSS, HOST: This is FRESH AIR. I m Terry Gross. My guest, Anthony Ramos, stars in what s expected to be one of the big summer movies, the film adaptation of Lin-Manuel Miranda s Tony Award-winning first musical, In The Heights. Ramos is in the role Miranda wrote for himself and played on Broadway. In Miranda s musical Hamilton, Ramos was in a dual role, playing both the abolitionist John Laurens and Hamilton s son Philip. In The Heights is a very kinetic film, and Ramos sings, raps and dances, including in some exuberant, big production numbers.
