Raise a glass! On tonight's 58th Annual GRAMMY AWARDS airing live on CBS, the Grammy Award-nominated musical Hamilton ushers Broadway back to the GRAMMY stage after a more than five-year hiatus when GRAMMY Award winner Lin-Manuel Miranda and his extraordinary cast perform a number from the acclaimed musical via satellite from the legendary Richard Rodgers Theatre in New York. The broadcast begins at 8/7c on CBS. BWW will bring you video of the performance as soon as it becomes available!
This is the fourth time the GRAMMY broadcast will feature a performance live via satellite. THE 58TH ANNUAL GRAMMY AWARDS will be broadcast live from the STAPLES Center in Los Angeles, Monday, Feb. 15 (8:00-11:30 PM, live ET/check local listings for other time zones) on the CBS Television Network.
Entertainment icon and two-time GRAMMY Award winner LL COOL J is set to host Music's Biggest Night® for the fifth consecutive year. Previously announced performers include Adele, James Bay, Andra Day, Ellie Goulding, Sam Hunt, Tori Kelly, Kendrick Lamar, Lady Gaga, Little Big Town, Carrie Underwood and The Weeknd.
The "Hamilton" performance will mark just the eighth time in history that musical theater has been featured on the GRAMMY Awards. Previous Broadway productions featured on the broadcast include "Godspell" (1972); "The Magic Show" (1975); "Sophisticated Ladies" (1982); "La Cage Aux Folles" (1984); "Will Rogers Follies" (1992); "Riverdance" and "Bring In Da Noise, Bring In Da Funk" (1997); and, most recently, "American Idiot" (2010).
The last time the awards broadcast included a performance from another location was on "The 50th Annual Grammy Awards," when Amy Winehouse performed "You Know I'm No Good" and "Rehab" from London in 2008, the same year Winehouse earned her five GRAMMYs®.
