Jimmy Fallon’s “Tonight Show” Headed To Puerto Rico For January 15 Episode; Lin-Manuel Miranda To Appear

NBC confirms details on a special edition of “The Tonight Show.”

Lin-Manuel Miranda is a guest on Monday’s edition of “The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon.”

In less than one month, he will appear on another episode of the popular talk show.

NBC confirms that Miranda will be part of a special edition of “The Tonight Show” on January 15. The episode will broadcast from Puerto Rico in conjunction with the upcoming Puerto Rican “Hamilton” run.

“The telecast, in which Miranda will appear, will focus on the spirit and culture of Puerto Rico in its efforts to rebuild and raise awareness following the devastating hurricane that struck the U.S. territory on Sept. 20, 2017,” says NBC. “While the telecast will detail how Hurricane Maria caused widespread damage, it will also, just as importantly, be festive and bring a party-like atmosphere to the island that has long been known for fun and celebration.”

The episode will also feature an exclusive performance by Miranda and the Puerto Rican “Hamilton” touring cast.
