STAGE TUBE: #Ham4Ham Goes Sporty - HAMILTON's Chris Jackson Performs the National Anthem

HAMILTON's #Ham4Ham lottery performance has quickly become one of Broadway's favorite traditions as fans gather in front of the Richard Rodgers Theatre to see what Hamilton writer Lin-Manuel Miranda has in store -- and who his guest performer is.

Today's #Ham4Ham featured Chris Jackson (who plays George Washington in HAMILTON and is apparently something of a good luck charm for New York sports teams) singing the National Anthem in honor of the Mets playing in the World Series. Check it out below!

A fun note: Lin-Manuel (who is back in action after a bout of the flu, yay!) wore a shirt that said, "There's No 9 Train Now," a nod to his other ground-breaking musical IN THE HEIGHTS.

The new musical HAMILTON has book, music and lyrics by Tony and Grammy Award-winning composerLin-Manuel Miranda, who also plays the title role. The musical is directed by Thomas Kail, with choreography by Andy Blankenbuehler and music direction and orchestrations by Alex Lacamoire. HAMILTON is inspired by Ron Chernow's biography "Alexander Hamilton."

$10 front row seats for HAMILTON -- the new musical about the $10 Founding Father, AlexanderHamilton are on sale for each show by lottery. The lottery begins two and half hours prior to each performance when patrons may enter their name at the Richard Rodgers Theatre (226 W. 46 St.) for a chance to buy up to two front row tickets for $10 each - Hamilton for Hamilton. The winner's names will be drawn 2 hours before show time. Entrants must present photo ID, and the winners must pay with cash at the box office.
