HAMILTON is a smash in more ways than one!

SMASH star and Broadway regular Megan Hilty stopped by Off-Broadway hit musical Hamilton this week and a new backstage video of Hilty and composer/star Lin-Manuel Miranda is now available to view in addition to a shot of the star alongside her former SMASH co-star Leslie Odom Jr., who also stars in the historically-based show.

In the video, Miranda records an impressive improvised outgoing voice mail message especially for Hilty.

Hilty posted the video to social media, commenting, "Oh... And this happened last night at @HamiltonMusical too! I ?? @Lin_Manuel & @Phillipasoo ! Video cred: @sara_chase".

Prior to that, Hilty posted the pic of herself alongside Leslie Odom Jr., writing, "Guys. @HamiltonMusical is PERFECT! @Lin_Manuel is a genius and the entire cast is magical - especially my old pal @leslieodomjr".

Additionally, Miranda posted about the SMASH reunion, as well, sharing photos and writing, "Smash reunion @meganhilty @leslieodomjr #HamiltonPublic," and, later, "Crashing the Smash Reunion. Tonight's @BCEFA voicemail was for @meganhilty! #Bombshell".

The official description of Hamilton is as follows: "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: Alexander Hamilton. Tony, Grammy, and Emmy 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 Hamilton friend 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. Hamilton is the recipient of an Edgerton Foundation New American Plays Award."

Megan Hilty appeared on Broadway in WICKED and 9-TO-5 in addition to making a mark with her many small screen appearances, starring in NBC's musical drama series SMASH for two seasons as well as leading SEAN SAVES THE WORLD opposite Sean Hayes.
