Lin-Manuel Miranda’s latest project is a concept album based on the film “The Warriors”, which was released in October and has since garnered rave reviews and hype from fans. But since the album’s release, the question on everyone’s lips has been: will Warriors come to the stage?
In a recent interview with The New York Times, Miranda revealed that he and Warriors collaborator Eisa Davis will soon begin that process.
“People really like it, but because we’re such a visual culture, everyone said to me and Eisa ‘OK, when can we see it?'” he shared. “So I think at the top of the year, Eisa and I will just start having conversations about how to adapt that to the stage.”
