Tituss Burgess (Titus Andromedon on Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt) is not going to miss his shot. During a For Your Consideration ad spot aired during the Tony Awards last night, Burgess auditions for the role of Alexander Hamilton in Hamilton … despite never seeing the musical or having any audition materials.
The clip – made up songs and amazingly horrible rapping – is short but sweet, capturing all of what made Burgess a breakout star on the show. You can watch the audition, along with some great outtakes, below.
