The ABC is set to feature a special in-conversation interview with Lin-Manuel Miranda presented by Leigh Sales.

In his first trip to Australia to meet the local company, HAMILTON creator Lin-Manuel Miranda, sat down with ABC journalist Leigh Sales in Brisbane – in front of an audience of what are affectionately known around the world as #Hamilfans; for a special Q&A to recognise his contribution to the cultural zeitgeist and to discuss the impact that HAMILTON is having around the world. 

Miranda was honest and candid with Sales about the challenges he faced bringing HAMILTON to the stage, sharing secrets about the show with fans, while paying tribute to the depth of talent in the Australian company. 

The interview was conducted on the stage of HAMILTON at QPAC’s Lyric Theatre, where the cast have been playing to rapturous audiences in the last leg of their Australian season, which must close on April 23, 2023. 

The interview will be broadcast exclusively on ABC TV and ABC iview on Saturday, March 18 at 6pm, and will be repeated the following Tuesday, 21 March on ABC TV at 10pm.
