Product Information
A backstage pass to the groundbreaking, hit musical Hamilton , winner of the 2016 Pulitzer Prize for Drama and Eleven Tony Awards, including Best Musical, including the award-winning libretto, behind-the-scenes photos and interviews, and exclusive footnotes from composer-lyricist-star Lin-Manuel Miranda, now streaming on Disney+ with the original cast. Lin-Manuel Miranda's groundbreaking musical Hamilton is as revolutionary as its subject, the poor kid from the Caribbean who fought the British, defended the Constitution, and helped to found the United States. Fusing hip-hop, pop, R&B, and the best traditions of theater, this once-in-a-generation show broadens the sound of Broadway, reveals the storytelling power of rap, and claims our country's origins for a diverse new generation. Hamilton: The Revolution gives readers an unprecedented view of both revolutions, from the only two writers able to provide it. Miranda, along with Jeremy McCarter, a cultural critic and theater artist who was involved in the project from its earliest stages -- "since before this was even a show," according to Miranda -- traces its development from an improbable performance at the White House to its landmark opening night on Broadway six years later. In addition, Miranda has written more than 200 funny, revealing footnotes for his award-winning libretto, the full text of which is published here. Their account features photos by the renowned Frank Ockenfels and veteran Broadway photographer, Joan Marcus; exclusive looks at notebooks and emails; interviews with Questlove, Stephen Sondheim, leading political commentators, and more than 50 people involved with the production; and multiple appearances by President Obama himself. The book does more than tell the surprising story of how a Broadway musical became a national phenomenon: It demonstrates that America has always been renewed by the brash upstarts and brilliant outsiders, the men and women who don't throw away their shot.Product Identifiers

HAMILTON FOR CHRISTMAS
HAMILTON AUDIO arrived well packaged and speedily - but it is a Christmas gift, so I cannot comment on the contents - it looks great to me. Exactly as described. Will add granddaughter's comments later.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned

Dissappointing
If you like hearing people talk about themselves then this is fine. Not very entertaining and not very engaging. The story “Hamilton” is by far superior.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned

Original concept
I think Lin Manuel Miranda originally made this Mixed tape before he made Hamilton. Some of the songs are different, some don’t appear in Hamilton. Very interesting for Hamilgeeks like me!Verified purchase: YesCondition: New
