In case anyone did not see, last night The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon presented a really special episode from the Island of Puerto Rico. They took in the sights and most importantly showed off their spirit for the smash hit Hamilton (which is now on the Island for a month long run).
During the special, Jimmy Fallon took to the stage of the Centro De Bellas Artes Luis A. Ferr? to join the show's creator and original star Lin-Manuel Miranda (who is reprising his performance of "Alexander Hamilton" for the Puerto Rico engagement) and the new company (a.k.a. The AND PEGGY 3rd National Tour) in a performance of THE STORY OF TOINIGHT.
The Puerto Rico engagement of HAMILTON runs now through January 27th, 2019 (with a possible extension) at the Centro De Bellas Artes Luis A. Ferr?. This engagement of the Award winning hot ticket will be raising money to help rebuild the island after the horrific Hurricane Maria destructed it.
