2025-08-15 09:01:29 +0000 UTCI'm not sure it was mentioned yet, but 4 people in Act One have different roles in Act Two. It can be confusing at first. Daveed Diggs played the Marquis de Lafayette in Act 1 and plays Thomas Jefferson in Act 2. Anthony Ramos played John Laurens in Act 1 and plays Phillip Hamilton in Act 2. Okieriete Onaodowan played Hercules Mulligan in Act 1 and plays James Madison in Act 2. & Jasmine Jones played Peggy Schuylar in Act 1 and plays Maria Reynolds in Act 2.

2025-08-15 08:42:25 +0000 UTCIt’d be cool if you check out some of these guys’ solo stuff after you finish Hamilton! “Taking Off” by Clipping really shows off Daveed’s (Lafayette’s) speed and eloquence imho. Pippa Soo (Eliza) singing “No One Else” from “The Great Comet” live is incredible The 3 ladies who portray the Schuyler sisters did a cover of “The Longest Time” together

2025-08-14 14:09:09 +0000 UTCMy favorite song in Act One is “Wait For It”, in Act Two “One Last Time”.

2025-08-10 04:23:30 +0000 UTCThe opening number is what Lin performed at The White House in 2009. It was the only song that was ready. Yes, there are lots of intentional Easter eggs, reference to Broadway classics AND to rap foundations. Direct inspiration from specific rappers to each character. You might want to turn on the captions for Act Two, it continues to be wordy.

2025-08-10 02:41:02 +0000 UTCI’ve seen it on the stage. I laughed, I cried, I danced in the aisle. Strong recommend.

2025-08-10 02:30:12 +0000 UTCHave you seen Come From Away pro shot? It’s on AppleTV I had never heard of it before watching but I really enjoyed it . Apparently they were going to make it a feature film but Covid happened and they did a pro shot with the original cast instead

2025-08-09 00:11:29 +0000 UTCFinally have a chance to watch this. I love Hamilton so much and I’m so glad you are enjoying it. A bit of trivia just in case you’re not aware, the role of Alexander Hamilton is being played by Lin-Manuel Miranda himself. The man who wrote Hamilton Edit I think you do know since you just referenced him by name. Probably should have waited till the end of the video to comment

2025-08-08 04:07:22 +0000 UTCYou got me. I joined to watch this. Love Hamilton and love watching your reactions. So this was the best. I can’t pick a favorite, but You’ll Be Back is up there. Really enjoyed watching this with you.

2025-08-07 23:28:22 +0000 UTCOther musical: Next to Normal. There IS a proshot (very recent), and it’s so, so much better than the original cast (in terms of conveying the story effectively). An upcoming proshot that I want to recommend ahead of time is Frozen, but HEAR ME OUT — I get it. It’s Frozen. 🙄But the stage musical is so, so much better than the movie. I’ll never watch the first movie again once the proshot comes out (sometime before the end of the year).

2025-08-07 16:10:05 +0000 UTCFavorite songs for me are both in act 2: One Last Time and Burn Favorite songs in act 1: Satisfied and Wait For It

2025-08-07 15:33:17 +0000 UTCOmg! Yaaaaaaay!!! This show makes me sob everytime I watch it especially in the context of today. It’s so brilliant and emotional. I’m so stoked for this! Loving your reaction!

2025-08-07 15:23:10 +0000 UTCProbably not a popular opinion but after waiting 2 years to see this on Broadway (seen over 50), for the first time ever, I walked out at intermission. My brain, my ears, my Musical Context affinity just can't comprehend RAP. I just didn't get it. Then again, I was compairing to Les Miserables, Wicked, Jessie Mueller's Waitress, and Phantom, etc. My bad.

2025-08-06 22:30:30 +0000 UTCI don’t have time to sit down and watch this yet, but I hope you enjoyed it. Hamilton is the first thing I ever listened to that actually made me enjoy and appreciate rap
