The kids of Fun Home had a hilarious message for Lin Manuel Miranda at the annual Easter Bonnet competition to benefit Broadway Cares/Equity Fights AIDS: please cast us!
The child stars of the hit musical sang an adorable ballad to the Hamilton creator and star to the tune of “Officer Krupke,” the song from West Side Story.
The lesson, by the end of the song, is to team up with their friends and make a show together, just like Miranda did.
Looks like their idol loves them right back:
