A backstage pass to the groundbreaking hit musical Hamilton, winner of the 2016 Pulitzer Prize for Drama and 11 Tony Awards, including Best Musical, including the award-winning libretto, behind-the-scenes photos and interviews, and exclusive footnotes from composer-lyricist-star Lin-Manuel Miranda, now streaming on Disney+ with the original cast.
Winner, 2017 APA Audie Awards - Audiobook of the Year
Lin-Manuel Miranda's groundbreaking musical Hamilton is as revolutionary as its subject: the poor kid from the Caribbean who fought the British, defended the Constitution, and helped to found the United States. Fusing hip-hop, pop, R&B, and the best traditions of theater, this once-in-a-generation show broadens the sound of Broadway, reveals the storytelling power of rap, and claims our country's origins for a diverse new generation.
Hamilton: The Revolution gives listeners an unprecedented view into both revolutions, from the only two writers able to provide it. Miranda, along with Jeremy McCarter, a cultural critic and theater artist who was involved in the project from its earliest stages - "since before this was even a show", according to Miranda - traces its development from an improbable performance at the White House to its landmark opening night on Broadway six years later. In addition, Miranda has written more than 200 funny, revealing footnotes for his award-winning libretto, the full text of which is published here.
Their account features photos by the renowned Frank Ockenfels and veteran Broadway photographer, Joan Marcus; exclusive looks at notebooks and emails; interviews with Questlove, Stephen Sondheim, leading political commentators, and more than 50 people involved with the production; and multiple appearances by President Obama himself. The book does more than tell the surprising story of how a Broadway musical became a national phenomenon: It demonstrates that America has always been renewed by the brash upstarts and brilliant outsiders, the men and women who don't throw away their shot.
PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

Reseñas de la Crítica
"Mariska Hargitay takes on the role of warm documentarian in her narration of this behind-the-scenes look at the cultural phenomenon that is Hamilton. Hargitay is an able guide.... It's fascinating listening for Broadway aficionados and an essential deep dive for Hamilton fans." (AudioFile)

Any additional comments?
This book, and the play's soundtrack, is the next best thing to seeing the play. It will have to be for awhile at least - I figure it will be 2020 before the price becomes more reasonable, so I may want to do this again! The book is priceless, providing the backstory for the long development of the play and Miranda's thought processes in how to set the portrayals of scenes. The significance of this play, the significance of a New Yorker of Puerto Rican descent deciding that Hamilton's story needed to be told, the significance of African Americans playing the roles of the very men who built this country/owned slaves/did not end slavery - is mind boggling. I did this on audio, which provided another level of intensity to the reading - intense enough to make me weep. Haven't experienced that since first seeing Lord of the Dance. I strongly recommend the experience.(less) [edit]

This book gave me an insight and depth to the mind of Lin and the cast of the original Hamilton crew. I recommend this book to all those who want to know more and greatest musical of this generation. I loved geeking out with the Harry Potter and Leslie Knope references! The history buff within me loved that I could now make sense of the “creative licensing” and rest in the heart of Lin’s genius-ness.
Listening to Lin-Manuel Miranda detailed notes at the end of the book was for sure a highlight.
Beautiful Insight and I’m Grateful for all the details

This book changed that. It really let's you get inside Lin and the other creator's heads and see the inspiration behind the genius show. I'd highly recommend this book.
