Lin-Manuel Miranda’s live tweets about “Hamilton’s America” were hilariously entertaining just like him
ICYMI, Hamilton’s America aired on October 21st on PBS. The 90-minute documentary not only showed behind-the-scenes footage from the Tony award-winning musical, but it also gave the dl on the historical figures in it, reported Entertainment Weekly.
Lin-Manuel Miranda, the creator/former star of the Broadway musical, live-tweeted during PBS’s showing of the doc, and his tweets were nothing short of hilarious, of course.
We are ~obsessed~ with Broadway’s Hamilton, which has won 11 Tony Awards and the Pulitzer Prize, btw, so it’s def worth seeing — and we loved the doc, too.
“The story of Alexander Hamilton is most remembered for its dramatic conclusion, which saw Hamilton killed in a duel by Vice President Aaron Burr, states PBS’s website. “But the full story of this political genius — a poor immigrant who built himself up from nothing to become one of the nation’s most vital architects — has largely been forgotten by history…until now.
Yep. Agreed.
But back to Miranda’s tweets.
He not only gave shout-outs to people in the doc, but also talked about his new apartment, which he and his wife, Vanessa Adriana Nadal, are fixing up.
Here are some of our favorites.
But first, THE SWEATER WOULD LIKE TO INTRODUCE YOU TO THE FALL ARTS FESTIVAL #HamildocPBS That's my hometown theater.

And if you missed the PBS doc, you can still watch it, as they reminded us in this tweet. ? And then, as you watch, you can check out all of Miranda’s tweets from when he watched.
