Lin-Manuel Miranda Freestyled At The White House With Obama's Help
This is totally boss.
The cast of the game-changing musical Hamilton left Broadway on Monday and made a trip to Washington to visit the White House.
"Let’s get started. Enjoy the show, everybody!" —@POTUS: https://t.co/qoijfA70kZ #Bam4Ham
Musical creator and star Lin-Manuel Miranda geeked out with Treasury Secretary Jack Lew before a portrait of Hamilton himself, who was the first man to hold that role.
Three Treasury Secretaries (2 IRL and 1 on stage) meet in the #roomwhereithappens.
And the cast even performed a few of the numbers you've had in your head since you discovered the incredible soundtrack.

But here's the best part: Miranda joined President Obama in the White House Rose Garden to produce this video showcasing his freestyling genius — with an assist from POTUS.
Lin-Manuel, we as a nation are not worthy of you.
