How does a Broadway show, one nobody can get tickets to, get filmed and then dropped on a streaming service earlier than planned to keep everybody home and entertained?
Hamilton, aka #Hamilfilm, a 2016 original-cast recording of the smash Broadway show, drops on Disney+ on July 3. That's a full 15 months earlier than the original release date creator and star Lin-Manuel Miranda tweeted way back in February, before *gestures outside* all this. And now we have a trailer, promising... definitely a performance of Hamilton. And lots of feelings.
Given the state of things out there, perhaps consider marking this Fourth of July with a distanced Hamilfilm watch party and inspired reflection on the history and character of the Republic rather than a raucous BBQ? Just a thought.
