STAGE TUBE: HAMILTON Cast Album Offers a Taste of Groffsauce
Music director Alex Lacamoire was apparently having a swell time at this original Broadway cast recording session for Hamilton.

Hamilton recently opened at the Richard Rodgers Theatre. Hamilton has book, music and lyrics by Tony and Grammy Award-winning composer Lin Manuel Miranda, who also plays the title role. The musical is directed byThomas Kail, with choreography by Andy Blankenbuehler and music direction and orchestrations by Alex Lacamoire. "Hamilton" is inspired by Ron Chernow's biography "Alexander Hamilton."
Hamilton, which recently transferred to Broadway following a sold-out run at The Public Theater in NYC, is the acclaimed new musical about the scrappy young immigrant Alexander Hamilton, the $10 Founding Father who forever changed America with his revolutionary ideas and actions. During his life cut too short, he served as George Washington's chief aide, was the first Treasury Secretary, a loving husband and father, despised by his fellow Founding Fathers and shot to death by Aaron Burrin their legendary duel.
