STAGE TUBE: He's Part of Our World! Alan Menken and Lin-Manuel Miranda Perform Medley in #Ham4Ham

Legendary Disney songwriter Alan Menken lent his talents to this week's #Ham4Ham, the first digital incarnation of the pre-lottery performance. Below, join Menken and Lin-Manuel Miranda at the piano as the pair performs a medley of songs from THE LITTLE MERMAID!

Last year, Lin-Manuel Miranda, the genius behind the new musical Hamilton, started what has become one of the theatre community's most beloved weekly traditions on Broadway. He invited fellow cast members to join him as he greeted fans outside the Richard Rodgers Theatre before the drawing of the $10 lottery tickets, and they would sing something fun or participate in a Q&A with an unexpected twist. Before long, it grew into a regularly-scheduled pre-lottery performance known as "#Ham4Ham," playing on the fact that Hamilton's face is on the $10 bill.

BroadwayWorld previously reported that the outdoor performance is on a hiatus until March as managers at the Richard Rodgers work out safety measures to accommodate the sizable crowds in attendance, but Lin-Manuel Miranda has promised that he will be posting performances online in the meantime.

The new musical 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 by Thomas Kail, with choreography by Andy Blankenbuehler and music direction and orchestrations by Alex Lacamoire. Hamilton is inspired by Ron Chernow's biography "Alexander Hamilton."
