When did it transfer to Broadway?

The article says it transferred to Broadway in August. 2015. But we saw it in previews there in July, about a week before its August opening. Do we have a source for when it really moved to Broadway? Frank Lynch (talk) 01:11, 31 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Hamilton's America.

I watched Great Performances tonight on PBS. The episode is called Hamilton's America. It covers highlights of Hamilton's life, how Lin-Manuel Miranda found the biography by Ron Chernow, how it seized his imagination, and covers the 5-1/2 years it took for him to write and open the show. Insights by Miranda and other cast members are woven throughout. The thoughts of others are featured, including those of Chernow and Presidents Bush and Obama. Substantial segments from the major songs are included.

Since this documentary gives a lot of insight into Miranda's creative process and the birth of the musical, I think it will be useful for the authors here. Hamilton's America is available on PBS to view. The running time is 1:22:35; the webpage says that access expires 11/19/16. http://www.pbs.org/arts/pbs-arts-festival/2016/great-performances-hamiltons-america/ I'm sure that you will enjoy it.

Comment by student

Hi everyone, I'm a student learning about Wikipedia. I noticed that citation #25 ("Mandy Gonzalez Sets Date to Replace Renee Elise Goldsberry in Broadway's Hamilton") is missing a URL. --Rebeccaldenyer (talk) 19:32, 26 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Finished to ref, thanks! (Actually not missing the url but missing author, date, work.) Flami72 (talk) 19:50, 26 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]
