Lifting the Curtain: How Lin-Manuel Miranda Challenged West Side Story\u27s Cultural Stereotypes
Full text linkFour Tony Awards, including Best Musical. A Grammy Award for Best Musical Show Album. Anomination for the 2009 Pulitzer Prize for Drama. Lin-Manuel Miranda did not quietly emerge, but rather,exploded onto the theatrical scene. His debut musical, In The Heights (2008), swept Broadway and catapultedMiranda onto center stage. The diversification of Broadway theatre over the prior decade had providedMiranda with a stage upon which to showcase both the plight and the rich culture of the Latino community inWashington Heights, New York. He seized this opportunity, creating a vibrant cityscape by employing anontraditional score of rap and Latin music to invoke the foot-tapping pulse intrinsic to the Latino community.However, Miranda\u27s mission went beyond entertainment to a deep-rooted desire to use the Broadway spotlightto dispel commonly accepted, cultural stereotypes of Latino immigrants. While the characters portrayed in theplay trace their roots to Cuba, Puerto Rico and the Dominican Republic, Miranda\u27s message could beextrapolated to other Latino nationalities. Success often attracts criticism and some critics accused Miranda ofdepicting an idealized picture of life in Washington Heights. While these critics may have been correct, theoverwhelming acclaim for In The Heights served to validate Miranda\u27s goal of creating positive roles for Latinothespians and mitigating negative stereotypes of Latinos generally. His success was all the more poignant as the play was showcased in a traditionally white space.

No full text21 Chump Street (2014) est une comédie musicale de Lin-Manuel Miranda qui, en seulement quinze minutes, tend à dénoncer le préjudice racial présent au sein du système judiciaire et des forces de police aux États-Unis. La suspicion permanente dont sont victimes les minorités ethniques et le harcèlement qui s’ensuit sont au cœur de cette pièce qui met en scène la rencontre entre un jeune latino-américain et une policière sous couverture à la recherche de drogues dans son lycée en Floride. ..

Lin-Manuel Miranda: new articulations of latinidad in the Hollywood imagination
Full text linkWhen it comes to representation for Latinx in the US film industry, Lin-Manuel
Miranda stands out as one of the most varied and complex of Latinx creators
working in cinema today (Mcmanus 2018; Scaletta 2021; Kawa 2021). Although
he has enjoyed a blooming success through an ascending presence in Anglo-US
entertainment industry, Miranda’s career as a Latinx creator runs also in parallel
with current Latinx demographic shifts in the United States, specifically as we move
from the late twentieth into the twenty-first century. Thus, we discern how his
various roles as an actor and director complicate existing schemas or paradigms of
silver-screen Latinx representation and Latinidad in contemporary film spectrum.
In this essay, I assess how critical race theory concepts such as assimilation and
panlatinidad are foregrounded in the mediated construction of Lin-Manuel
Miranda cinematic career, negotiated and contained in the context of US Latinidad
in 21st century cinema. In order to do so, this paper will focus on the concept of
assimilation and mixed-race theories according to Latinx film representation.
Then, I will discuss on Miranda’s panethnic understanding of Latinidad, as a
way of improving the stereotypical conditions of Latinx representation in recent
Hollywood. In the last part of this essay, the case study of two of his films, one as
an actor ("Mary Poppins Returns", 2018) and the other one as a creator/director ("In
the Heights", 2021) provides meaningful insight of the representation of Latinidad
in contemporary US films in ways that implicitly address a crisis of racial/ethnic
solidity onscreen, hence encapsulating a powerful sense of cultural equality crafted
toward the representation of Latinx in US culture
Lin-Manuel Miranda and the Future of Originalism
Full text linkThis chapter discusses how Lin Manuel Miranda\u27s Hamilton: An American Musical is changing the future of originalism. Originalism in constitutional law has recently had a generally conservative valence not because the Founders were an eighteenth-century version of the Federalist Society, but because readings of Founding era sources that favored right-leaning causes were generally predominant in the community of constitutional lawyers. Since 2015, however, the millions of Americans who have listened obsessively to Hamilton\u27s cast album or packed theaters to see the show in person have been absorbing a new vision of the Founding. The blockbuster musical narrative has retold America\u27s origin story as the tale of a heroic immigrant with passionately progressive politics on issues of race and issues of federal power. And so the balance shifts: inspired in part by this retelling, a new orientation toward the Founding will come into view. Hamilton offers this alternative vision at the dawn of a period when liberals will find themselves attracted to rediscovering the Founding Fathers as political and jurisprudential allies

Lin-Manuel Miranda: Hamilton, a New Era of Broadway Musicals
No full textAbstractOver the past two years, something odd has happened on Broadway, which can be accredited to one man, or rather two. A new musical known as Hamilton, based on the genius and life of Alexander Hamilton, is striving to become one of the most beloved, most viewed and widely appreciated Broadway shows of all time, and it is all the creation of Lin Manuel Miranda. This paper aims to address the issues of changing the conventional Broadway music by introducing hip-hop, which seemingly focuses on rapping about relevant issues over edgy beats. In line with relevant literature, the dissertation attempts to explore the role of the introduction of modern hip-hop music and diverse cast playing the protagonist parts of the Founding Fathers in achieving to convey the message of Hamilton while changing the face of orthodox Broadway plays. The paper departs from the question of whether these elements are successful in attracting diverse ethnicities and a younger audience, while simultaneously managing to gross higher ticket sales.</div
