The cast of Broadway smash hit Hamilton paid tribute to music legend Prince, who died aged 57 on 21 April, with a cover of his song Let's Go Crazy after their performance later that same evening. Video shows Lin-Manuel Miranda, who wrote and stars in Hamilton, speaking to the audience before dancing with the cast.

Paramedics attended the music legend's home at Paisley Park in Minneapolis on following reports that a person had died. Carver County Chief Deputy Jason Kamerud said police responded to a medical call at 9.43am. A coroner was also sent to the vast complex, where Prince recorded his music. He was found "unresponsive in an elevator" and pronounced dead at 10.07 am.

Prince's publicist, Yvette Noel-Schure, confirmed the sad news of his passing in a statement which read: "It is with profound sadness that I am confirming that the legendary, iconic performer, Prince Rogers Nelson, has died at his Paisley Park residence this morning at the age of 57."
