Hamilton at the White House

Hamilton captures the story of our nation's Founding Father Alexander Hamilton, using hip-hop, jazz, blues, rap, R&B, and more musical styles to bring history to life.
The creative minds behind the hit show have also worked with nonprofit organizations and foundations to make the musical accessible to as many students as possible, along with developing educational materials to expand on the context of the show. Yesterday, members of the cast workshopped this curriculum with local students in the East Wing.
