The Broadway star took the final bow along with two other "Hamilton" leads Leslie Odom Jr. and Phillipa Soo on Saturday night, July 9. The trio said goodbye in an emotional curtain call to the tune of Miranda's favorite "The West Wing".
Famous faces were seen among the audience. They included Aaron Paul, Jane Fonda, John Kerry, Rosie O'Donnell, Mariska Hargitay and Edward Norton. Jennifer Lopez who recently collaborated with Miranda on an Orlando tribute song was also present at the Richard Rodgers Theatre.
The Saturday show was met with loud applause. Seemingly moved by the overwhelming reaction from the audience, Miranda put his fist to his chest and gave one last bow. Despite calls for a speech, he simply waved to the crowd and danced off the stage with his co-stars.
While Miranda celebrated the night by chopping off his hair, co-stars Junior Munoz and Daveed Diggs took shots out of their Golden Gramophones that they won at this year's Grammy Awards.

Munoz, Miranda's longtime onstage alternate, will take over the Hamilton role. Lexi Lawson will replace Soo as Eliza Schuyler Hamilton and Brandon Victor Dixon will step in as Aaron Burr following Odom Jr.'s departure.
Lin-Manuel Miranda will next head to the big screen for a major role in "Mary Poppins Returns" starring Emily Blunt. He is also involved in the production of Disney's animated film "Moana" along with Phillipa Soo. Meanwhile, his Pulitzer-nominated play "In the Heights" will be adapted for a movie with Jon M. Chu in talks as a director.
