2024-10-16 19:42:41 +0000 UTCOne of the things that I like best about this show is that they portray Hamilton as a very multi-dimensional person. He's brilliant and self-destructive, insecure and arrogant, courageous and deeply flawed. It's really an amazing portrayal.

2024-10-14 07:02:03 +0000 UTCRemember how they ended the first song of the first act: (Daveed and Oak) We fought with him! ... (Washington) Me, I trusted him (Philippa, Renee and Jasmine) Me, I loved him! Lafayette and Hercules fought with (alongside) Hamilton. Jefferson and Madison fought with (against) him. Jasmine plays Peggy and Maria Reynolds, with whom Hamilton has his affair.

2024-10-14 06:44:05 +0000 UTCTo me, this show is like Shakespeare. It’s DEEP. Based on actual biographies, it portrays people as complex and sometimes flawed beings. Unlike a lot of today’s pop culture, no one is all good or all bad. And it kind of depends on who’s telling the story. Personally, I prefer Act 1, and rate some of those songs amongst the best of the piece. But, then, I’ve listened to them hundreds of times by now. It’s a lot to take in on the first listen. And there are some very special treats still to come.

2024-10-13 15:52:34 +0000 UTCSo I try to avoid any spoiler comments just in case, even casting because that info COULD be a spoiler. I will think WHY did they double cast, and the rabbit hole that could follow. Your comments are super helpful! I just did parts 7 and 8 and honestly wish I had this info LOL

2024-10-13 15:49:26 +0000 UTCRemember, at the time, everyone wrote to everyone. People would even send multiple letters a day. Angelica Schuyler, who was from a prosperous family and was well known in New York elite, would have done a lot of correspondence and left many letters of historical importance behind. Her father was a general in the Revolutionary War and a U.S. Senator. In the introduction song “The Schuyler Sisters”, they establish her interest in politics. IRL she corresponded not just with Hamilton, but with Washington, Jefferson, and Lafayette.

2024-10-13 15:45:43 +0000 UTCI thought someone told you they used double casting? Four main actors play one role in Act 1 and a different one in Act 2. Daveed Diggs = LaFayette + Jefferson Oak = Hercules Mulligan + James Madison Anthony Ramos = John Laurens + Phillp Hamilton Jasmine Cephas-Jones = Peggy + Maria Reynolds
