Giles Terera is at Wimbledon BookFest on 19 September to chart his extraordinary journey as Aaron Burr in the ground-breaking musical Hamilton – beginning with his first audition in New York, and continuing through extensive research and preparation, intense rehearsals, previews and finally, to opening night itself.

Enjoy an honest, intimate and thrilling look at everything involved in opening a once-in-a-generation production – the triumphs, breakthroughs and doubts, the camaraderie of the rehearsal room and the moments of quiet backstage contemplation – plus reflections on experiences from Giles's own life that helped shape his acclaimed portrayal.

A Radio 4 Book of the Week, this is an amazing event for fans of Hamilton, as well as for aspiring and current performers, students, and anyone who wants to discover what it really felt like to be in the room where it happened.

The event will also feature special guest appearances from original London cast members.
