Broadway an der Elbe: Hip-Hop-Musical "Hamilton" in Hamburg

Hamburg will soon be home to another musical highlight: "Hamilton" – a musical theater piece with plenty of rap and dance, centered around the American dream. The award-winning cult musical from the USA is celebrating its German premiere and will thus be performed in another language for the first time. The musical's creator, Lin-Manuel Miranda, was also among the guests at the Operettenhaus on the Reeperbahn. He praised the incredibly diverse cast of the German production. "This is the most international production ever." The English-language musical is a global success. It tells the story of Alexander Hamilton, who wrote large parts of the U.S. Constitution and was himself the first Secretary of the Treasury. He is as relevant today as he was 220 years ago. The award-winning musical about the founding fathers of the USA has been performed on Broadway since 2015. ----- Here on ZDFheute News, you'll find out what's happening in the world and what concerns us all: We provide insight into the world of news, explain the background, and address social debates.
