‘HAMILTON’: THE HISTORY-MAKING MUSICAL

â€œWhy hasnâ€™t anyone done a hip-hop version of Alexander Hamiltonâ€™s life?â€ said the Broadway composer and lyricist Lin-Manuel Miranda in a 2012 article in The New York Times. Lucky for us, Mr. Miranda â€” a history buff who had long been fascinated by the turbulent life and tragic end of our nationâ€™s first Secretary of the Treasury â€” has done just that. This Tbook, a selection of articles and reviews from The Times, chronicles the evolution of Mirandaâ€™s musical â€œHamilton,â€ from its beginnings as an experimental rap project, to Off Broadway at the Public Theater and, ultimately, to megahit on Broadway. The overwhelming success of â€œHamilton,â€ inspired by Ron Chernowâ€™s 2004 biography, has had far-reaching effects. It has not only created a new kind of theater experience, it has also been influential in preserving Hamiltonâ€™s image on the $10 bill and has sparked a surge of interest in the man himself, whose importance as a founding father has often been overlooked by history.
