Hamilton<\/a><\/em> fans everywhere, brace yourselves. Calm your farm. Take a deep breath. \u2018Cause the official cast for the Australian production of the hit Broadway musical has been announced\u2026\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

And they\u2019re pretty damn epic. We would expect nothing else tbh. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

In the leading role of Alexander Hamilton (played by creator and superstar Lin-Manuel Miranda in the original), is Jason Arrow, who most recently appeared in Disney\u2019s Aladdin<\/em> and is being tipped as the rising star of Australia\u2019s musical scene.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Jason<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Playing his rival Aaron Burr is Lyndon Watts, who also <\/em>appeared on-stage in Disney\u2019s Aladdin<\/em> and whose list of credits includes Singin\u2019 in the Rain<\/em>, Anything Goes<\/em>, and West Side Story<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Topping off the playbill we have Eliza Hamilton played by Chlo\u00e9 Zuel, Angelica Schuyler by Akina Edmonds, and George Washington will be Matu Ngaropo.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
