Description

Hamilton swing extraordinaire Karla Garcia is on the podcast this week and we get into more of that #SwingLife. We learn about the cast nicknames for roles (The Dead Mother track, anyone?), what it was like to choreograph and win Gypsy of the Year 2016, and how Karla is totally on that Andy Blankenbuehler path.    Hamilton performs “America” - Gypsy of the Year 2016 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kJf3YQoknn8 Credit: Broadway Cares/Equity Fights AIDS/YouTube Digital #Ham4Ham 2/27/16 -- The Taglish Commandments https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=poroeR2bBf4 Credit: Hamilton: An American Musical/YouTube Hamilton Ham4Ham 11/11/15 with Lea Salonga & Lin-Manuel https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o6CwjP2urAU Credit: Howard Sherman/YouTube

In this podcast about all things Hamilton, Hamilton-related, Hamilton-adjacent, or anything else in the Miranda universe, I (your host Gillian Pensavalle) talk to guests (and my sometimes co-host/all times husband Michael Paul Smith) about such things as: how Hamilton brings people together, how we find Ham references in everyday life, and the general brilliance of the show. I'm proud to say that we've spoken to almost everyone from the original creative team (aka "The Cabinet") including the man himself: Lin-Manuel Miranda. In addition, I've had cast members from every company, crew members, musicians, creatives, and the hard working people that keep the production alive. I've also had to pleasure of speaking to experts on the show and its history, some of my superfan friends of note, celebrity Ham enthusiasts, and everything in between.  When I started this podcast in January of 2016, I could not have imagined the incredible community that has grown around the show and the amazing experiences that have come my way. Thank you to everyone who has listened, appeared on the show, contributed, or reached out in any way. This podcast is for you and I absolutely love making it.
