During the time where the entire world is practising social distancing, the cast of the forthcoming 2021 musical drama 'Hamilton' reunited on John Krasinski’s web show called Some Good News to surprise a young fan. Since Broadway theatres are shut down due to the pandemic, members like Lin-Manuel Miranda and the other co-actors of the drama tuned into the show by sitting at home and interacted with the young fan. This heart-melting video of the young girl watching and interacting with her favourite actors, is the best thing and is spreading positivity all around.
A beautiful video
The cast members of the musical drama appeared in the second episode of the show which is designed to inspire people and brighten their spirits especially at this hour where the entire world is going through a health crisis. To make someone's day better amid the lockdown, the original Broadway company reunited over a video chat to surprise Aubrey, a nine-year-old 'Hamilton' fan whose exciting plans to see the musical in New York eventually got cancelled because of the deadly outbreak. Host Krasinski and his wife, Emily Blunt, also gifted Aubrey with show tickets and airfare to see the show in Manhattan once this quarantine effort gets lifted.
Host Krasinski even shared a small snippet of the show on his twitter handle where the entire cast can be seen joining the zoom call. The video when uploaded on the micro-blogging site has been viewed around a thousand times and has got over 7 thousand likes. This adorable gesture won the internet’s heart and had people showering all their love and appreciation for the show-makers.
