Mandy Gonzalez & Chris Jackson dazzle with When You’re Home by Lin-Manuel Miranda - Amigos de Jesus

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.
