'Stand. Breathe. Look. Try to empty my mind. Somehow, for some
reason, I have been brought to this place to tell this story, now.
So tell it. That's all.' When Lin-Manuel Miranda's groundbreaking
musical Hamilton opened in London's West End in December 2017, it
was as huge a hit as it had been in its original production off-
and on Broadway. Lauded by critics and audiences alike, the show
would go on to win a record-equalling seven Olivier Awards -
including Best Actor in a Musical for Giles Terera, for his
portrayal of Aaron Burr. For Terera, though, his journey as Burr
had begun more than a year earlier, with his first audition in New
York, and continuing through extensive research and preparation,
intense rehearsals, previews and finally opening night itself.
Throughout this time he kept a journal, recording his experiences
of the production and his process of creating his award-winning
performance. This book, Hamilton and Me, is that journal. It offers
an honest, intimate and thrilling look at everything involved in
opening a once-in-a-generation production - the triumphs,
breakthroughs and doubts, the camaraderie of the rehearsal room and
the moments of quiet backstage contemplation - as well as a
fascinating, in-depth exploration of now-iconic songs and moments
from the musical, as seen from the inside. It is also deeply
personal, as Terera reflects on experiences from his own life that
he drew on to help shape his acclaimed portrayal. Illustrated with
dozens of colour photographs, many of which are shared here for the
first time, and featuring an exclusive Foreword by Lin-Manuel
Miranda, this book is an essential read for all fans of Hamilton -
offering fresh, first-hand insights into the music and characters
they love and know so well - as well as for aspiring and current
performers, students, and anyone who wants to discover what it
really felt like to be in the room where it happened. Hamilton and
Me was featured as Book of Week on BBC Radio 4 in August 2021.
