After what seemed like forever, the world finally got to see Lin-Manuel Miranda onstage as HAMILTON again! Lin joined the Puerto Rico cast for a short run and everyone was feeling the love! Everyone including Jimmy Fallon, who joined the cast for a fab rendition of "The Story Of Tonight" - they looked like twins!

If it was possible to love Lin-Manuel Miranda even more than we already do (we thought we were on full-love but now we're not sure) this video might be the thing that does it! In this video, the actor and writer of both HAMILTON and IN THE HEIGHTS teaches us all about Broadway slang...

With her co-hosting stint at this year's Tony Awards and the announcement of WAITRESS heading to the West End next year, Sara Bareilles is taking over the theatre world! Now she's joining the #HamilDrop crew with this latest song, "Theodosia Reprise". We warn you though, have a tissue or two at hand...

This November, a new American musical transfers to the National Theatre for the first time, bringing with it the two American leads. With a haunting folk-jazz score and a timeless story, HADESTOWN is Broadway-bound but the Brits are lucky enough to experience it first. Our Song of the week is the stunningly beautiful "All I've Ever Known" from this show...

As any true HAMILTON fan will know, the soundtrack is so good it's hard to choose a top track and our favourites can change with the day! So we reckon MsMojo must have had a tough time picking their Top 10. But choose they did and our #HamiltonHumpDay is this video countdown...

Here at StageFaves, we could spend hours arguing over our favourite musicals, performers and performances. YouTube channel MsMojo has put together their Top 10 list of the best Tony Awards performances of all time and although contentious, we think it's pretty good!

With its cast producing hand-held microphones and the band always fully visible onstage, SPRING AWAKENING exploded onto Broadway in 2006, reminding everyone that musicals could be cool! Our StageFaves Song of the Week is "The Bitch of Living"...

It doesn't matter where you're from, if you're a fan of musical theatre you've heard of RENT! The gritty, important and incredibly poignant show defined a generation and changed Broadway forever. This Friday we're taking you back to 1996 when the original Broadway cast performed at the Tony Awards. This is certainly a piece of Musical Theatre for the history books...

First it was a Pulitzer Prize-winning novel, then it was a Spielberg-directed film, finally it became a musical! The 2015 revival of The Color Purple starred English StageFave Cynthia Erivo and our song of the week is the title track from the show, sung by Cynthia and the company...

Is there a bigger American TV tradition than Saturday Night Live!? The show not only brings the funny every week, it peppers in plenty of sketches for the Musical Theatre geek! It's been a few years now since this sketch, but we think it's as funny as ever. From the Phantom trying to run the meeting to Elphaba lamenting her narrow casting bracket, this is worth a watch for any musical geek!

The Tina Fey movie sensation MEAN GIRLS is now a Tony-nominated Broadway smash. With all the wit of the original re-worked with an awesome modern pop-rock score, the show is one not to miss if you're heading over to America! Don't believe us? Check out this awesome performance of the song "Apex Predator" on the Today show...

Another Wednesday, another of our favourite HAMILTON videos! A couple of #HamiltonHumpDay's ago we shared the "Hamilton Polka", put together by the inimitable Weird Al Yankovic. We knew Lin-Manuel Miranda was super-psyched by it, and now all of the casts of Hamilton have been jamming out to the tune and released a video of all the fun...

We're super jealous that Broadway gets the awesome stage version of FROZEN but we don't and we definitely hope it'll be heading our way soon! Until it does though, we have to make do with the soundtrack and any video footage that comes our way. Luckily, the cast have been on TV a fair amount performing our fave songs. We Came across this performance of "For The First Time In Forever" on Good Morning America this May...

It's #HamiltonHumpDay so it's time for your weekly slice of HAMILTON joy to get you through to the weekend. This week, we're going back to a legendary moment when composer (and original Hamilton) Lin-Manuel Miranda dropped by the Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon and dropped some utterly awesome improv rap with the "Wheel Of Freestyle"...

In tough times, there's nothing like a bit of music to remind you that everything is going to be ok. The Broadway community came together to record a version of "We Are The World" to call for healing and unity in the world today and with a great message, a beautiful song and some of the best voices in the business we dare you not to get choked up!

It's been a few weeks since the 2018 Tony Awards but new videos are still catching our eye, like this one! Hosts Josh Groban and Sara Bareilles pay homage to the hard working people on Broadway who have to survive 8 shows ever week! Even better, it's to the tune of Sia's Chandelier...

It's a cast-swap as Michael James Scott (the current Genie in the ALADDIN US tour) will head to the West End this Summer and current London Genie Trevor Dion Nicholas will return to his native USA to join the tour. So for all the fans of ALADDIN, there'll be a new Genie in town this August...

We thought it was going to be a close race for the title of Best Musical at the 2018 Tony Awards, but it turned out to be a total roast by THE BAND'S visit, a beautiful new musical about an Egyptian band that spends the night in a sleepy Israeli town. Fall in love with the show that stole the heart of Broadway and watch these clips and interviews about the show...

Another week has passed and another #HamilDrop has, well...dropped! This #HamiltonHumpDay, get down to the beats of Mobb Deep who have released "Boom goes the Cannon", inspired by HAMILTON and the song "Right Hand Man"...

This week, the utterly fantastic FUN HOME plays its first performances at the Young Vic. We've been waiting for this day since the show won big at the Tony Awards back in 2015. Our song of the week is from those awards. It's "Ring of Keys" - the moment a young Alison Bechdel sees a butch woman for the first time...
