I want to remind my young ones watching Hamilton that every single breath is ACTED with clear intention. No dance step, no vocal, no lyric, nothing is wasted. This is the level of comittment you must come to your work. This is the level of specificity you must rise to!

Hamilton reminds me that white mediocrity has prevailed for too long on Broadway. Look at these BEYOND TRIPLE THREATS that are all BIPOC bodies. Groff is excellent so can’t come for him. We always have to work 3x harder, to stand as equal. But we do it better. Period. I said it.
