Spamilton (Original Cast Recording) - CD

2017 release. Spamilton is a joyous musical parody, in love with what it mocks, and it is a very funny show currently breaking box office records in New York. The musical theater phenomenon Hamilton, and it's geniused creator, Lin-Manuel Miranda. Is the object of it's witty ridicule - not the musical itself, but the phenomenon, the brand Hamilton that has taken on a life of it's own: the hopeless quest for tickets. The speculation about the film version, and most of all, the Revolution - not the political one in the 18th century, but the one on show business. Written and directed by Gerard Alessandrini, the creator of Forbidden Broadway in all twenty-five editions. Those shows are usually scathing in their humor. Unlike this one. Although an affectionate tribute to the world of musical theater is always the point: "Raise a glass to Broadway/And that's the story of tonight." If you're a Hamilton fan - or just a musical theater fan - don't miss listening to this album!
