#80: James Monroe Iglehart // Hamilton Broadway

<p>James Monroe Iglehart is a kind, funny, generous, amazing bolt of energy and I am so proud to say that he is my guest this week. Fan favorite Ashley Graffeo is my co-host, making this episode extra special. James told us what it's like to play Lafayette/Jefferson in <em>Hamilton</em> on Broadway, how the role compares to his Tony winning portrayal of Genie in <em>Aladdin,</em> meeting the Freestyle Love Supreme crew, the wonderful night that was The American Songbook performance at Lincoln Center (he played Hercules Mulligan!), and he even gives us a never-before-heard Burr's Corner. Plus, we talk about The Muppets, The Blues Brothers, Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt, and more! </p> <p> </p> <p>James Iglehart sings "I'm Going To Go Back There Someday"</p> <p><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QZZjphU6hV0">https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QZZjphU6hV0</a></p> <p> </p> <p>Live at Feinstein's/54 Below: James Monroe Iglehart Sings "When You Wish Upon a Star"</p> <p><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SY3ABsBsqG0">https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SY3ABsBsqG0</a></p> <p> </p> <p>Lin-Manuel Miranda and James Monroe Iglehart sing "My Shot" at Lincoln Center's American Songbook in 2012</p> <p><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OByswSEL-RA">https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OByswSEL-RA</a></p> <p> </p> <p>The #BARS Workshop with Rafael Casal and Daveed Diggs</p> <p><a href="http://getrafael.com/bars/">http://getrafael.com/bars/</a></p> <p> </p> <p>#BARS Mixtape Musical Medley Vol. 1</p> <p><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pk89Retbl4A">https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pk89Retbl4A</a></p> <p> </p> <p>The #BARS MEDLEY VOL 2 | Filmed live at the Public Theater, NY</p> <p><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Xf3YR2wtMyM&amp;t=3s">https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Xf3YR2wtMyM&amp;t=3s</a></p> <p> </p>
