Synopsis
This documentary takes viewers behind the curtain to explore the creation of smash-hit musical ‘Hamilton’, the history behind it, and those who made it happen. The musical tells the story of one of America’s founding fathers, Alexander Hamilton, through an innovative blend of hip-hop, R&B, and pop music in fresh and exciting new ways. Since opening on Broadway in 2015 it’s received universal acclaim and was nominated for a record-breaking 16 Tony Awards, winning eleven, and has gone on to entertain audiences around the world, including a West End transfer in late 2017. This documentary delves into the artistic process of its creator, Lin-Manuel Miranda, as well as profiling its progressive diverse casting, the construction of the songs, and the production’s American Revolution setting.
