March 19 (UPI) -- Lin-Manuel Miranda was Jimmy Fallon's guest on the latest episode of The Tonight Show: At Home Edition.

"Here's some good news. I saw, you can now stream the movie Cats online. You guys remember Cats, this is when movie theaters were empty before the virus," Fallon joked during his opening monologue.

Fallon then interviewed Miranda through video chat who discussed what his life was like under quarantine as he and his wife Vanessa Nadal homeschool their children, 5-year-old Sebastian and 2-year-old Francisco.

"I agree with Shonda Rhimes' tweet, every teacher should make a billion dollars a year," Miranda said before noting that he isn't getting much work done but rather learning how to teach math.

Miranda and Fallon both promoted charity Broadway Cares/Equity Fights AIDS which assists those in the entertainment and Broadway community who need help meeting COVID-19 related expenses.

Fallon, as he does with every home edition of The Tonight Show, picks a different charity to support that fans can donate to.

Miranda ended things with a performance of "Dear Theodosia" from his hit Broadway musical Hamilton which he played on a piano.

Miranda recently released online a cut song from Hamilton titled "I Have This Friend" which features Alexander Hamilton and George Washington having a conversation with each other.
