Stars turned out in force for the Tribeca Festival premiere of the new movie musical In The Heights this Wednesday.
The festival opened with a red carpet event for the film at the United Palace Theater in Washington Heights – the neighborhood where the film is set.
Leslie Grace, who plays one of the main characters, could be seen swishing her voluminous dress around for the camera.
She opted for a sleeveless frock that was cinched in around the middle to emphasize her enviably svelte figure as she posed up for the cameras.
Wearing her luxurious hair down she accentuated her screen siren features with makeup and accessorized with earrings.
While at the premiere she could be seen sharing a warm hug with Lin-Manuel Miranda who scored and starred in the Broadway show on which the film is based.
Lin-Manuel, who became a national sensation with his Broadway musical Hamilton in 2015, teamed a powder blue shirt with midnight blue slacks.
