Fisher, a ”Hamilton” veteran, takes on Celie’s 11-o’clock number.
MCC Theater's annual Miscast gala was held Monday, March 26, at the Hammerstein Ballroom. The evening, which features Broadway stars performing songs from roles in which they would never be cast, featured an illustrious lineup of talent that included Hamilton, Grease Live!, and Dancing With the Stars vet Jordan Fisher, who sang a tune which no one expected to hear: "I'm Here," Celie's 11 o'clock number from The Color Purple.
