Lin-Manuel Miranda News

Not shocking, being a Musical Theatre major, but I sing. A lot. Under my breath, while cleaning, even aggressively lip-synching while working out. Singing for me is an instinct. But not lately.

Like nearly everybody else in the theatre community, I woke up on the morning of July 3rd with an air of excitement. It's Hamilton Day, I thought to myself.
