  • On September 22, 2018, Hamilton stars Mandy Gonzalez and Chris Jackson performed a benefit concert for Amigos de Jesús, a children's home in Honduras.
    The pair’s remarkable performances at Philadelphia's Suzanne Roberts Theatre inspired the crowd with songs including:
    When You’re Home - Lin-Manuel Miranda (In The Heights)
    Love’s In Need/For Once In My Life - Stevie Wonder
    Amor Sin Fronteras
    Let It Go - Robert and Kristen Lopez
    A Song For You - Donny Hathaway
    Get Ready - The Temptations
    Life Is Sweet - Bill Sherman
    If I Could - Regina Belle
    Lean On Me - Bill Withers
    They Live In You - Elton John (The Lion King)
    Vivir Mi Vida - Marc Anthony
    Breathe - Lin-Manuel Miranda (In The Heights)
    Reach Out and Touch/I’ll Take You There - Diana Ross/Staple Singers
    Featured guest and United States Youth Poet Laureate, Amanda Gorman, left the crowd breathless with an extraordinary spoken word piece dedicated to the orphanage.
    Mandy Gonzalez, who plays Angelica Schuyler in Hamilton on Broadway, and Chris Jackson, who originated the role of President George Washington, first shared the stage in the original Broadway cast of In The Heights.
    For one magical night, everything in the world was perfect.
    Music Direction by John Deley and video production by Viva Creative.
    Founded in 1997, Amigos de Jesús is a home for abandoned, abused and impoverished children in rural Honduras. Located on 200 acres of rural farmland, the property consists of ten homes for children, residences for staff and volunteers, a bilingual school, a chapel and a working farm.

    It's like...Benny and Nina go back to Washington Heights years later and all the memories flood back. And they remember it's still home. That's the vibe I'm getting.

      Mandy Gonzalez replaced Renee Elise Goldsberry as Angelica sometime in 2016. In fact I think she’s still playing Angelica on Broadway now.

    I used to think we lived at the top of the world
    When the world was just a subway map
    And the one-slash-nine
    Climbed a dotted line to my place
    There's no nine train now
    Right
    I used to think the Bronx was a place in the sky
    When the world was just a subway map
    And my thoughts took shape
    On that fire escape
    Can you remind me of what it was like
    At the top of the world?
    Come with me
    We begin July
    With a stop at my corner fire hydrant
    You would open it every summer!
    I would bust it with a wrench
    'Til my face got drenched
    'Til I heard the sirens
    And then I ran like hell!
    You ran like hell!
    Yeah, I ran like hell!
    I remember well!
    To your father's dispatch window
    "Hey, let me in, yo!
    They're coming to get me!"
    You were always in constant trouble
    Then your dad would act all snide, but he'd let me hide
    You'd be there inside
    Life was easier then
    Nina, everything is easier
    When you're home
    The street's a little kinder when you're home
    Can't you see
    That the day seems clearer
    Now that you are here or
    Is it me?
    Maybe it's just me
    We gotta go I wanna show you all I know
    The sun is setting and the light is getting low
    Are we going to Castle Garden?
    Maybe, maybe not, but way to take a shot, when the day is hot
    I got a perfect shady spot
    A little ways away that oughta
    Cool us down
    Cool us down
    Welcome back to town
    Now, back in high school when it darkened
    You'd hang out in Bennett Park and
    Usnavi would bring his radio
    As I walked home from Senior Studies
    I'd see you rapping with your buddies
    With the volume high
    I walked on by
    You walked on by
    No pare! Sigue, sigue!
    No pare! Sigue, sigue!
    No pare! Sigue, sigue!
    No pare! Sigue, sigue!
    No pare! Sigue, sigue!
    No pare! Sigue, sigue!
    No pare! Sigue, sigue!
    No pare sigue!
    When you're home
    Oh, the summer nights are cooler
    When you're home!
    Now that you're here with me
    And that song you are hearing
    Is the neighborhood just cheering you along
    Don't say that
    What's wrong?
    Don't say that!
    When I was younger, I'd imagine what would happen
    If my parents had stayed in Puerto Rico
    Who would I be if I had never seen Manhattan
    If I lived in Puerto Rico with my people
    My people!
    I feel like all my life, I've tried to find the answer
    Working harder, learning Spanish, learning all I can
    I thought I might find the answer out at Stanford
    But I'd stare out at the sea
    Thinking, where'm I supposed to be?
    So please don't say you're proud of me, when I've lost my way
    Then can I say
    I couldn't get my mind off you all day
    Now listen to me!
    That may be how you perceive it
    But Nina please believe
    That when you find your way again
    You're gonna change the world and then
    We're all gonna brag and say we knew her when
    This was your home
    I'm home
    Welcome home
    When you're here with me
    Welcome home
    I used to think that we lived at the top of the world!
    Welcome home
    I'm home
    You're finally home
    You're home
    I'm home!
