6-year-old theatre critic Iain Armitage from Arlington, Va. hasn't reviewed Lin-Manuel Miranda's HAMILTON at the Public Theater yet, but he has performed an excerpt of the opening song. Watch him rap it out below, and stay tuned for his review!
HAMILTON began performances on Tuesday, January 20 and has been extended twice through April 5, with an official press opening on Tuesday, February 17 at the Public Theater. This world premiere musical features a book, music, and lyrics by Lin-Manuel Miranda; is inspired by the book "Alexander Hamilton" by Ron Chernow; and includes choreography by Andy Blankenbuehler.
From the creative team behind the Tony Award-winning In The Heights comes a wildly inventive new musical about the scrappy young immigrant who forever changed America: Alexander Hamilton. Tony and Grammy Award winner Miranda wields his pen and takes the stage as the unlikely founding father determined to make his mark on a new nation as hungry and ambitious as he is.
From bastard orphan to Washington's right hand man, rebel to war hero, loving husband caught in the country's first sex scandal to Treasury head who made an untrusting world believe in the American economy, HAMILTON is an exploration of a political mastermind. George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, Eliza Hamilton, and lifelong Hamilton friend and foe, Aaron Burr, all attend this revolutionary tale of America's fiery past told through the sounds of the ever-changing nation we've become. Tony Award nominee Thomas Kail directs this new musical about taking your shot, speaking your mind, and turning the world upside down.
