Who is Phillipa Soo?

The post is dedicated to the female star of Hamilton, Phillipa Soo. Soo grew up in Chicago with her parents being a doctor and an artist. She was supported in her artistic endeavors, but education was also very important to her family. After high school, she attended The Julliard School where she studied acting. After college, Soo landed a few theatrical roles, including a role in the off-Broadway production of Natasha, Pierre & The Great Comet of 1812, and a small recurring role in NBC's show Smash. After seeing her in The Great Comet, Director Thomas Kail and Lin-Manuel Miranda approached Soo about the role that would rocket her success, Elizabeth Schuyler. Soo is currently smashing the role on Broadway, and has been with the show for quite some time now. Recently, she just became engaged to actor Steven Pasquale earlier this year. For even more about the incredible Phillipa Soo be sure to watch her interview on The Today Show. Keep rocking it Phillipa!
