Disney has released a new documentary about the Broadway sensation Hamilton , which spotlights the connections between the stage musical, the hip-hop roots that inspired it, and “The Hamilton Mixtape” that followed.

Titled "Spark Into a Flame," the 16-minute documentary is now available to watch for free on YouTube, as well as on Disney+. It is also available as a special feature on the newly released physical media package .

The documentary features the voices of Hamilton writer, performer, and creator Lin-Manuel Miranda , along with many of the artists and creatives who had a front-row seat to the musical phenomenon, including music icons Busta Rhymes , Nas, Questlove, Black Thought , Angie Martinez , Common, Dessa, Residente and more.

Hamilton is the story of America then, told by America now. Featuring​ a score that blends hip-hop, jazz, R&B and Broadway, Hamilton tells the story of American founding father Alexander Hamilton . It was recently announced that Christopher Jackson will make a return to Broadway this fall, reprising his Tony-nominated role as George Washington in Hamilton .

Jackson’s return follows Hamilton ’s ten-year anniversary celebration on Broadwayl, celebrating the musical that opened at the Richard Rodgers Theatre on August 6, 2015. Original cast member Leslie Odom, Jr. returned to the show last fall selling out his limited engagement. Check out photos here .

With book, music, and lyrics by Lin-Manuel Miranda , direction by Thomas Kail , choreography by Andy Blankenbuehler , and musical supervision and orchestrations by Alex Lacamoire , Hamilton is based on Ron Chernow ’s acclaimed biography. It has won Tony​​, Grammy​​, and Olivier Awards, the Pulitzer Prize for Drama, and an unprecedented special citation from the Kennedy Center Honors.

Hamilton features scenic design by David Korins , costume design by Paul Tazewell , lighting design by Howell Binkley , sound design by Nevin Steinberg , hair and wig design by Charles G. LaPointe , casting by The Telsey Office , Bethany Knox , CSA, and general management by Baseline Theatrical .

CATS: The Jellicle Ball

Renée Elise Goldsberry is bringing back Angelica Schuyler— with a twist. The performer, who won a Tony for her performance in the hit musical Hamilton, recently released a new music video for her signature number Satisfied. Check it out now.

Hamilton will welcome five new cast members to its Broadway company.  Lauren Mariasoosay will take over the role of Eliza Hamilton, alongside Marcus John as Alexander Hamilton.

The filmed version of Hamilton will be released for the first time in 4K UHD Blu-ray this summer. The musical was filmed with the original cast, including Lin-Manuel Miranda, Leslie Odom Jr., Phillipa Soo, and more.

Hamilton is the room where it happens—a history remix that’s not throwing away its shot at dazzling you with rhyme, rhythm, and revolution. Founding fathers trade powdered wigs for mic drops as ambition rises faster than the tempo, and duels come with both pistols and punchlines. This production of Hamilton will be performing at the Fisher theatre now through May 17th.
