Join us for a special free screening of Hamilton, the groundbreaking film adaptation of the hit Broadway musical by Lin-Manuel Miranda! Captured live on stage, this captivating performance brings the story of American Founding Father Alexander Hamilton to life through a inspiring blend of hip-hop, jazz, R&B, and traditional show tunes.
More than just a musical, Hamilton reimagined how American history is told—highlighting the contributions of immigrants, challenging traditional narratives, and inspiring new generations to engage with the nation’s founding ideals.
This special screening is presented in connection with Tall Tales and Short Stories: Depictions of the American Experience, extending the exhibition’s exploration of how art reimagines and reframes the stories that shape our understanding of the nation’s history.
The film’s run time is 2h 40m. Make reservations at the Nasher Café ahead of time to enjoy refreshments before or after the movie!
