Notable entertainment personalities and even politicians have stopped by the Public Theatre to see Lin-Manuel Miranda's HAMILTON since its Feb. 17 opening. At last night's performance, The Tonight Show's Jimmy Fallon and pop singer-turned-musical-composer Sara Bareilles attended the show and of course snapped selfies afterwards. In addition, Bareilles posted a video to her Instagram of Miranda recording Jimmy Fallon's voicemail message. Check out the pics and video!
Miranda later tweeted,
"Tonight I auctioned off customized freestyle voicemail messages for @BCEFA. @jimmyfallon bought one. So if you call him, you'll hear me. (!)"
The world premiere production of Hamilton, inspired by the book "Alexander Hamilton" byRon Chernow, with book, music, and lyrics byLin-Manuel Miranda and directed by Thomas Kail opened February 17, 2015 at the Public Theater. The show is set to run through May 3rd at the Public Theater before it heads to Broadway's Richard Rodgers theater to begin previews on July 13th.
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: AlexanderHamilton. Tony and Grammy Award winner Lin-Manuel 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 Hamiltonfriend 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.
