This is a professional recording of the stage production edited together from three performances of the show in 2016, featuring the original cast including Lin-Manuel Miranda, Leslie Odom Jr., and Renée Elise Goldsberry. The production, which debuted in 2015, follows the life of Alexander Hamilton, the first secretary of the Treasury of the United States.
