Watch Lin Manuel-Miranda and the Entire Broadway Cast of "Hamilton" Reunite to Perform on Zoom
Staying in quarantine during the COVID-19 pandemic is like Groundhog Day with an endless loop of negativity coming at us from every angle. Watching the news brings on anxiety and panic but not watching it brings on even more anxiety because what if something drastic changes and we’re not up-to-date?
What we need more than ever is some good news, something that will make us smile, which is why we are loving John Krasinski’s new web series, Some Good News. This week, The Quiet Place actor organized a Hamilton reunion via Zoom for a well-deserving fan and the result was amazing.
Lin Manuel-Miranda and the entire original Broadway cast of Hamilton surprised a young girl who had plans to catch Hamilton in Jacksonville, which was canceled due to the quarantine and she was distraught about missing out. But lo and behold, she got an even better experience because she was “in the Zoom where it happened” — Lin Manuel-Miranda, Chris Jackson, Anthony Ramos, Leslie Odom Jr., and Daveed Diggs giving her a personal performance to “Alexander Hamilton”.
