King's Head Theatre in north London are hitting the road with their newest musical Hamilton (Lewis). More F1 fuel-head than founding father, the new show is based on Britain's prodigal racedriver son, his rise to fame, his various controversies and successes. According to the show's bio, it's a brand new piece no way endorsed by Lin-Manuel Miranda, or Hamilton himself. Or the Pussycat Dolls. We get a look into the show's first week at the Edinburgh Fringe.
