His previous Broadway productions include In the Heights, Bring It On: The Musical, and Hamilton, which premiered in 2015 and is still running at the Richard Rodgers Theatre in New York.
In the world of screen, Miranda contributed songs to the Disney movies Moana, Encanto, and The Little Mermaid, and made his feature directorial debut with Tick, Tick... Boom! in 2021.
He has also acted in projects such as Mary Poppins Returns, the In the Heights movie adaptation, His Dark Materials, and the upcoming Percy Jackson and the Olympians series.
