Rory O'Malley News

Contemporary audiences have less patience for the slave-owner who wrote 'All men are created equal.'

The action at the Richard Rodgers Theatre began early, with performances by the students themselves and a Q&A session with cast members. Check out coverage of the event from last night's NBC NIGHTLY NEWS.

More than just an afternoon at the theatre, #EduHam is a full curriculum inspiring students to look at history with a modern eye.

Good news - Hamilton's digital lottery is officially continuing on from winter, meaning that fans can enter online daily for a chance to see one of Broadway's biggest hits. Better news - this means that digital #Ham4Ham is also happening, featuring surprise performances from the cast. Today's video features the coronation of new 'King George' Rory O'Malley (who started performances in HAMILTON on Monday) by former ruler Jonathan Groff. Check it out below!

SPARKLE & CIRCULATE with JUSTIN SAYRE - the official monthly podcast of the International Order of Sodomites - has posted its new episode, which features an interview with author Michael Schulman who discusses his new book "Her Again: Becoming Meryl Streep." He also talks about his work in The New York Times and "You Like Me," the annual evening of acceptance speeches he co-produces in New York. Also, Justin muses on gays and their favorite iconic divas. The show is available on iTunes here.  

The Richard Rodgers Theatre is packed with New York City students for a full day of HAMILTON fun.
