He tweeted that he woke up unable to move it.
It seems like it is better now but film at 11.
P.S. Critics tonight.

Thank goodness this was announced after the stock markets closed for the day.
Does his neck have a standby that can go on if his regular neck is unable to do so?

He also tweeted that he went to PT. I'm sure he's fine. But please, someone report if he sneezes!

Remote diagnosis: spasmodic torticollis. I have had it - painful - result of physical exhaustion and stress. Could be.

Hopefully he is fine, and I understand that some find all the attention the show is getting mind-boggling but the possibility that the title character of a show that has critics coming for the next 3 nights and is opening the night after is news even if the show is DOA.

In today's lottery video, he seems like he got it back to a workable state.

Hogan, I do think Hamilton is news, I get that. I don't think a minor neck injury is news. He's constantly on Twitter, he shares everything. No need to panic.

Perhaps novelist Alan Brown should write a sequel to his 1996 novel "Audrey Hepburn's Neck."
GET WELL, LIN-MANUEL! WE LOVE YOU--AND YOUR NECK!

After the Chenoweth neck brace and the Menzel candlelight vigil, this is really nothing to bitch about.

I was at the show last night, and he seemed a little on the stiffer side, but I don't know if that was a neck thing or a Lin in general thing. There is something to be said for playing to the mezzanine, which Lin was not doing last night (though pretty much everyone else was). Lin was very much focused on the orchestra only.

If critics were there last night to review the show, I'm guessing they weren't sitting in the mezzanine.

"@neon "minor neck injury"
at the time I posted, no one knew if it was minor, incl LMM. "
I think the fact that it was on twitter clues people in that it's not too serious.
When was the last time someone announced they had a fatal disease on twitter?
And if they did, wouldn't everyone just think they were being a drama queen?
just found out I have 2 weeks live :-o

True, but he was pretty much the only one who rarely (maybe twice) looked up to the mezzanine (especially in his aside moments). If it wasn't really for the others doing it, I probably wouldn't have noticed that he never did. It just wasn't consistent across the company. I'm definitely being picky, I understand that, but there were more people in the audience than the critics.

If it was Liza who was, yet again, having health problems, there would be hundreds of posting on this Board, hourly medical updates, and round the clock prayer vigils.

And that is as it should be.

First of all, you are dead wrong (no pun intended) about what folks post on twitter.
Secondly, no one suggested anything was fatal, but the possibility he was going to miss press previews and opening night is quite significant. (Had it been the case, my guess is they would have postponed the official opening. Otherwise, Javi would have been the star of record.)
Finally, if you have ever had a neck injury (I have), it can be quite debilitating and you never know it is better until it is better. I just love love love all of the backseat driving one must endure on here.
