Description
Lin-Manuel Miranda's groundbreaking musical Hamilton opened in London's West End in December 2017, a huge hit that would go on to win seven Olivier Awards. For Giles Terera, his journey as Aaron Burr began a year earlier, with his first audition in New York, and continued through extensive research and preparation, intense rehearsals, previews, and finally opening night. This book, Hamilton and Me, is Terera's journal, recording his experiences of the production and his process of creating his award-winning performance. The book offers an honest and intimate look at the triumphs, breakthroughs, and doubts of opening a once-in-a-generation production, as well as a fascinating exploration of the iconic songs and moments from the musical. It is also deeply personal, as Terera reflects on experiences from his own life that he drew on to help shape his acclaimed portrayal. Through his journal, Terera shares the camaraderie of the rehearsal room, the moments of quiet backstage contemplation, and the process of bringing this iconic musical to life.
