Tony winner Lin-Manuel Miranda will guest star this upcoming season on Fox's dramatic hit series HOUSE. Miranda will appear in at least two episodes of the show's upcoming season as title character House's psychiatric hospital roommate. Hugh Lauries talks about Miranda and the first episodes of season 6 right here on STAGE TUBE!

Lin-Manuel Miranda is the 29-year-old creator, lyricist, composer and original lead of the Tony Award-winning musical "In the Heights."

HOUSE, an innovative take on the medical drama, solves mysteries where the villain is a medical malady and the hero is an irreverent, controversial doctor who trusts no one, least of all his patients.

HOUSE is the winner of three Emmy Awards, including an award for creator and executive producer David Shore (Outstanding Writing for a Drama Series). The series has been honored with 17 Emmy Award nominations, including three for Outstanding Drama Series and three for Hugh Laurie (Outstanding Lead Actor in a Drama Series). The series received the 2006 Humanitas Prize for the episode "Three Stories" and three Humanitas finalist honors, one each for the 2007 episode "House vs. God" and the 2005 episodes "Everybody Lies" and "Damned If You Do." Additionally, HOUSE received two Golden Globe Awards for Laurie (Best Performance by an Actor in a Television Series) and two Screen Actors Guild Awards for Laurie (Outstanding Performance by a Male Actor in a Drama Series) as well as a Screen Actors Guild Award nomination (Outstanding Performance by an Ensemble in a Drama Series) and two Golden Globe Award nominations for Best Television Series, Drama, and an NAACP Image Award nomination for Outstanding Drama Series.

The show has also been honored by the American Film Institute as one of the TV Programs of the Year, and it received a Peabody Award for Best of Electronic Media, as well as two consecutive People's Choice Awards for Favorite TV Drama, a People's Choice Award for Hugh Laurie (Favorite Male TV Star) and the Writers Guild Award for Episodic Drama ("Autopsy").
