That’s right people! This is happening! Disney announced on Twitter today that the original Broadway production of Hamilton, filmed live onstage, is coming exclusively to Disney+ on July 3rd. And yes, we’re shouting from the rooftops!
Disney’s official Twitter post making the announcement:
This was a surprise indeed! Hamilton is a musical with music, lyrics, and book by Lin-Manuel Miranda that tells the story of American Founding Father Alexander Hamilton. The Broadway music is a perfect blend of hip hop, R&B, pop, soul, and traditional-style show tunes… making it an extremely unique and impressive Broadway musical.
