The stage is set for the Asian premiere of Lin-Manuel Miranda’s acclaimed musical, Hamilton. The musical is on its new international tour, which begins in Manila this September 17. Much-anticipated by fans and theatre aficionados, this Philippine leg of Hamilton was made possible by GMG Productions and The Theatre at Solaire.
“We have assembled an extraordinary cast of superstars from productions worldwide for Hamilton’s new international tour,” says Michael Cassel, tour producer. “We can’t wait to introduce them to you as we make our way to exciting new places for the first time.”
Hamilton retells the tragic and inspiring life story of Alexander Hamilton, an immigrant and one of America’s founding fathers who played a crucial role in the American Revolution and in shaping the United States’ early political history. Based on the 2004 biography penned by Ron Chernow, this sung-and-rapped-through musical brings to the revolving centre stage Hamilton’s storied past with much vigour and colour.
The musical production has been known for its diverse and inclusive casting. Actors of Filipino descent who have been part of Hamilton include Marc de la Cruz (Alexander Hamilton, King George, John Laurens, Philip Hamilton, James Reynolds and Philip Schuyler); Rachelle Ann Go (the first Eliza Schuyler Hamilton in the West End production); Christine Allado (Peggy Schuyler, Maria Reynolds); Karla Puno Garcia (a “swing”, or an offstage performer who goes onstage if one from the ensemble backs out).
