內容簡介

內容簡介 可望問鼎東尼獎、2016年普立茲獎最佳戲劇類得主Hamilton音樂劇幕後集錦 2016年普立茲獎最佳戲劇類得主Hamilton，是以美國開國元勛Alexander Hamilton的一生為藍本創作的音樂劇，劇中大量使用現代饒舌、嘻哈、R&B音樂來詮釋Alexander Hamilton精彩的一生和美國獨立戰爭歷史，2015年一推出便大受好評，也是各界預測今年東尼獎的熱門入圍者。 Hamilton曾在白宮及葛萊美獎演出，現已在百老匯登台，座位一票難求，而原聲帶也成為第一張登上美國告示牌饒舌專輯榜首位的百老匯原聲帶。 Hamilton: The Revolution為音樂劇幕後製作集錦，內容包含該劇全劇本、本劇創作人Lin-Manuel Miranda的獨家訪談和30篇有關本劇演員、劇組團隊、創意發想的專文及Hamilton的生平故事，目前已登上Amazon音樂劇類銷售第一名。 Lin-Manuel Miranda's groundbreaking musical "Hamilton" is as revolutionary as its subject, the poor kid from the Caribbean who fought the British, defended the Constitution, and helped to found the United States. Fusing hip-hop, pop, R&B, and the best traditions of theater, this once-in-a-generation show broadens the sound of Broadway, reveals the storytelling power of rap, and claims our country's origins for a diverse new generation. HAMILTON: THE REVOLUTION gives readers an unprecedented view of both revolutions, from the only two writers able to provide it. Miranda, along with Jeremy McCarter, a cultural critic and theater artist who was involved in the project from its earliest stages--"since before this was even a show," according to Miranda--traces its development from an improbable performance at the White House to its landmark opening night on Broadway six years later. In addition, Miranda has written more than 200 funny, revealing footnotes for his award-winning libretto, the full text of which is published here. Their account features photos by the renowned Frank Ockenfels and veteran Broadway photographer, Joan Marcus; exclusive looks at notebooks and emails; interviews with Questlove, Stephen Sondheim, leading political commentators, and more than 50 people involved with the production; and multiple appearances by President Obama himself. The book does more than tell the surprising story of how a Broadway musical became a national phenomenon: It demonstrates that America has always been renewed by the brash upstarts and brilliant outsiders, the men and women who don't throw away their shot."
