Still haven't seen Hamilton? Now's your chance (well, kind of). The long-awaited behind-the-scenes documentary about the Tony Award-winning musical is set to debut on PBS in just a few weeks. Wait for it, wait.
And while this isn't the film-version of the show, which was rumored to have been recorded before Lin-Manuel Miranda left, it is a backstage pass for one of the most popular musicals in history.
The program, which is part of PBS's Great Performances series, follows the show's cast members like Christopher Jackson, Leslie Odom Jr., and of course, creator Lin Manuel Miranda as they prepare for Broadway. It also features interviews with George W. Bush, Barack Obama, Jimmy Fallon, Questlove and more.
Check out the teaser below, then tune in to PBS on October 21 at 9 p.m.
