Tune in to the Super Bowl today, theater fans. Hamilton's three original Schuyler Sisters, Phillipa Soo, Renée Elise Goldsberry, and Jasmine Cephas Jones, will reunite to sing "America the Beautiful" during a televised pregame show.

The game, which will take place at the NRG Stadium in Houston, is scheduled to begin at 6:30pm EST. The New England Patriots and the Atlanta Falcons will go head to head at the Bowl, which will air on FOX.

With book, music, and lyrics by Lin-Manuel Miranda, direction by Thomas Kail, choreography by Andy Blankenbuehler, and music direction/orchestrations by Alex Lacamoire, Hamilton is based on Ron Chernow's biography of Founding Father Alexander Hamilton. The musical tells the story of Alexander Hamilton, an immigrant from the West Indies who became George Washington's right-hand man during the Revolutionary War, and was the new nation's first Treasury Secretary.

Soo, Goldsberry, and Jones have all since left the cast of Hamilton and are each focused on other projects. Soo, a Tony nominee for her role in the show, is now preparing to lead the Broadway debut of Amélie, A New Musical, while Tony winner Goldsberry is working on Netflix's Altered Carbon. Jones has filmed appearances on upcoming episodes of the series Blood Surf.
