So his first time around, he beat Alan Disney God Menken. Then 8 years later, he beat Andrew Lloyd King Of Theater Webber. First came Shakespeare, but we're going to be known as the Lin-Manuel Miranda era. How lucky we are to be alive right now.

Jason Robert Brown was 28 years old when he won "Best Original Score" in 1999 for "Parade." I love LMM, I'm not trying to take the record away from him...But he shares it with someone else. (Unless you want to be super picky and go by EXACT age because JRB was 28 and 11 months, so a little older than LMM, but I think that's being a bit picky. Most of us stopped counting months when we were children. LOL) I only know that because "Parade" is so big right now and I had a moment where I realized that JRB wrote it in his early to mid 20s. 🤯That's incredible! You'd think that show was written by someone who had lived a long life and experienced a lot of things. He was practically a kid!

I'm not from Puerto Rico but the moment when he dedicated his award to all latin people and showed his flag almost makes me cry of joy!!! Arriba los latinos !!!

Everyone ready for a repeat of this this year?

Lin is a force of nature

I BELIEVE IN TONY NOMINEE CHRIS JACKSON

"I don't know about God but I believe in Chris Jackson!" Is my new religion

I cannot deal with Lin's voice when he gets emotional like it's just too much omg

YES! USNAVI BUSTING THE BARS!

The Hat quote is from the Pulitzer Prize winning Stephen Sondheim/James Lapine musical "Sunday in the Park with George," which chronicles George Seurat and his painting "A Sunday Afternoon on the Island of La Grande Jatte" and is about art, artists, and the struggle of creation. In the song "Finishing the Hat," Seurat says after finishing part of the painting "look I made a hat where there never was a hat," which is a statement about the wonder and joy at making art.

So glad to see Usnavi didn't throw away his shot.

He is so cute with everything he does.

why am i so proud of Lin tho i don't know Lin personally i should not be this teary eyed.

Such a great speech with the best lyric from musical theater ever written 'look I made a hat where there never was a hat" incorporated. Well done..

seeing this in 2020 makes me even more proud of him. he changed the game for musicals & how we tell stories. they will be taking about him long after this moment. “there’s a million things i haven’t done, but just you wait, just you wait.”

So rare, even in all those award shows, to see sheer happiness and gratefulness on TV these days. Very good slammer. And one who knows his classics too: loved the Sondheim reference :) Touching.

LOVE IT! especially the Vanessa bit

That was HOT!!! This is why he won!

he is the defn of passion
