Shamilton, the Improvised Hip-Hop Musical

Baby Wants Candy’s improvised hit Hamilton-inspired hip hop homage returns to UCBNY! New York Times “One of the Top 5 Comedy’s to Catch”.
Ever heard of this show “Hamilton”? Shamilton is just like that, but (ahem) better! Expect the same level of hip hop, incredible songs, stunning choreography and powerhouse singing… except made up on the spot!
Fresh off a month-long fully sold-out run at the Edinburgh Fringe and four months of fully sold-out shows at UCBLA, musical improv ensemble Baby Wants Candy presents “Shamilton!”, the Hamilton inspired hit hip-hop musical created in 2016 at UCB, with an open run at Chicago’s Second City.
Join the Shamilton cast as they improvise an epic musical based on a historical figure of your choosing- from Genghis Khan to Mr. Rogers to Kim Kardashian… to basketball playing superdog Air Bud.
It’s the show
The Guardian calls “Brilliant 4 stars”
The New York Times calls “One of the top 5 comedy shows to catch”.
and Lin-Manuel Miranda calls, “cease and desist!”

Featuring: Adrian Frimpong, Katy Berry, Chris Simpson, Alyssa Davis, RJ Williams, Desi Domo, Will Jacobs, Kiki Mikkelsen, Dan Tepper, Ali Reed, and Tarik Davis
