Phillipa Soo

Phillipa Soo earns my admiration as the original Eliza Hamilton, a role at the emotional center of a cultural phenomenon. Originating a part means defining how it will be felt by everyone who follows, and she set that bar on Broadway. Two Grammys plus Tony and Emmy nominations confirm range that spans stage, television, and voice work. A performer who can make a story rise through song holds real power, and I find myself genuinely curious about which role will move audiences next.
