The magic of Hamilton's Christopher Jackson

It's a thrilling penultimate episode of Off the Cupp Season 1 with one of the coolest guests ... Broadway (and TV and movie) star, Christopher Jackson! S.E. indulges in ALL the musical theater, behind-the-scenes action Christopher can offer from The Lion King to In the Heights to Hamilton. Christopher shares his journey from small-town life in Cairo, Illinois, to the grand stages of Broadway and television. He talks about his deep relationships with creative giants like Lin-Manuel Miranda and the impact of the entertainment of his youth, from MTV to Will Smith and the Fresh Prince of Bel Air . The conversation also takes a poignant turn as Christopher delves into his family's personal experiences with his son's autism diagnosis and his own advocacy. This episode has got a little something for everyone — heartfelt stories, humor, maybe a few tears, and a very Broadway themed lightning round.
