Prince Harry briefly began “You’ll Be Back” at a charity performance of Hamilton in London on 29 August 2018. He sang only the opening words, “You say…,” then stopped and joked that Lin-Manuel Miranda had tried to persuade him to continue, but he had declined.
What did Prince Harry sing?
Harry started “You’ll Be Back,” the song performed in Hamilton by the character King George III. He sang the opening, “You say…,” but did not perform the song in full. ITV’s report from the event and CBS News’ coverage both describe the brief moment.
Why was Harry at the performance?
Harry and Meghan attended a gala performance at London’s Victoria Palace Theatre to raise money for Sentebale, the charity Harry co-founded with Prince Seeiso of Lesotho. The charity supports children and young people affected by HIV in southern Africa. Kensington Palace thanked the cast and crew for a performance that raised awareness and funds for Sentebale, in a post reproduced by CBS News.
What was the joke between Harry and Lin-Manuel Miranda?
Before Harry came onstage, Hamilton creator Lin-Manuel Miranda introduced him with a joke linking the Duke of Sussex to the show’s King George III. Miranda said, “Smash cut to 2018 I’m sitting next to his sixth-great grandson. Ladies and gentlemen, the Duke of Sussex.”
