In 2015, the world fell in love with Lin-Manuel Miranda in Hamilton. But, before he was spitting verses about early U.S. history, he was riffing in Freestyle Love Supreme.
This improv-musical-hybrid was created 15 years ago by a team of incredible talents including Thomas Kail and Lin-Manuel Miranda. With 4 Tony Awards® between them, the writing and directing duo behind other Broadway successes like Hamilton and In the Heights broke the rules of theater to create a show like no other.
Freestyle Love Supreme is not a traditional musical that follows the same script each night as actors and actresses sing songs they’ve sung countless times before. Instead, every performance is unique as performers take suggestions from the audience to create impromptu scenes and full-blown musical numbers.
In an interview with Playbill, Miranda said, “What’s amazing is that this is the only thing I do that I feel more energy when I've done it than when I started. It feeds In the Heights, it feeds Hamilton because it’s the only show that sharpens my tools for the other thing. So that fact that we get to just do this, you bring the ingredients and we make this meal, is incredible.”
Like it inspires the writer and composer of the show, the live improvised format of Freestyle Love Supreme is guaranteed to inspire audiences as they participate in the creation of the performance. It invites patrons to see behind the curtain and witness a show develop live right in front of their eyes. It demands that viewers engage in a performance in a way they never have before.
Freestyle Love Supreme is fresh off of a limited Broadway engagement and headed to Northwest Arkansas! This is a unique Broadway experience like no other and is a must-see part of the 2020/21 P&G Broadway series.
