Miranda began acting and writing at a young age.  Manuel’s first show, In the Heights, premiered on Broadway in 2008 and Miranda himself starred in the leading role. It won four Tony Awards, including Best Musical and Best Musical Score.

Hamilton came to Broadway in 2015, and was an immediate hit. It won 11 Tonys, a Grammy, and a Pulitzer Prize. It blends both traditional Broadway sounds with hip-hop. Between the two musicals, Miranda has participated in many other projects.
