Honors Memories: The Schuyler Sisters honor the Hamilton Creators | 2018 Kennedy Center Honors

The Schuyler Sisters from Hamilton—Renée Elise Goldsberry, Jasmine Cephas Jones, Phillipa Soo— perform live for the Hamilton Co-Creators at the 2018 Kennedy Center Honors. In 2018, the co-creators of Hamilton—writer and actor Lin-Manuel Miranda, director Thomas Kail, choreographer Andy Blankenbuehler, and music director Alex Lacamoire—received a unique Kennedy Center Honors as trailblazing creators of a transformative work that defies category. The Kennedy Center Honors are given annually to select performing artists for their lifetime of contributions to American culture. Our Honors Memories series catches up with Honorees right after the Honors event to hear how they felt during tributes to their artistry, followed by a memorable performance from that night. For over 40 years, the Kennedy Center and the arts and entertainment world have gathered every December to fete the annual slate of Kennedy Center Honorees and their unparalleled influence on American culture. Given this year’s extraordinary circumstances, the Honors will be re-imagined to celebrate our cultural icons in an unconventional, hybrid format featuring a mix of virtual tributes and small-capacity, in-person live performances in the late spring. The slate of Honorees and event date for the 43rd Kennedy Center Honors will be announced at a later date.
