Watch 'Hamilton' brilliantly spoof 'The West Wing'


The Hamilton cast sure made the most of their White House visit earlier this month. In between performing scenes for high school students and show creator Lin-Manuel Miranda free-styling in the Rose Garden with President Obama, the group managed to take a few minutes and spoof a West Wing-style "walk-and-talk." (And they talked almost as fast as Aaron Sorkin would hope.) "You didn't think we'd leave the White House without a West Wing style walk & talk, did you?" the show wrote on YouTube. "We technically shot this in the East Wing, but shhhhh."

Oh, and here's that freestyle from the Rose Garden. (Trust us, you don't want to miss it.)
