Amazing!!
Amazing musical about an amazing man who doesn't get the credit he deserves!! This is a musical I could go see again and again!
A totally different and thoroughly enjoyable show
A totally different and thoroughly enjoyable show that comes very highly recommended by critics, the number of Tony Awards and now myself! I got the chance to see this great show the night after Trump shocked America and won the elections to be the 45th president of the USA. In case you didn't know it's a hip-hop-r&b-urban take on the story of one of America's founders Alexander Hamilton (who was around for the 1st and 2nd presidents of the USA). I found the hip- hop quite a refreshing change to the usual musicals. The set design is quite simple (but effective) with very little to no change throughout the show. I was impressed with clever use of the turntable stage. Overall the production was, to me, well rehearsed and sharp. Aaron Burr was particularly brilliant that evening. We were spoilt seat wise... being in the front stalls with an excellent view. I suggest trying to have a pre-show drink in the amazing Palmer House Hilton lobby - it's only a stones throw away!
Enjoyable in every way!
After hearing SO much about this show I wasn't left disappointed - Hamilton was enjoyable in every way! The costumes and dancing are great but my favourite bit is def the songs... I got goosebumps when they played 'Wait For It'! Why travel all the way to Broadway when you can see it right here with an outstanding cast. Five stars!
It was spectacular!
I went to go see Hamilton for my birthday after waiting for so long to finally see it live! And it was actually really really amazing! During the whole show I was smiling and cheering because the performance was so well done. You could tell the actors love what they do! It’s really great to see such passion. If you’re ever in the Boston area I’d suggest seeing it. It’s worth it.
Wonderful!!
Exciting, emotional and so much fun if you’re familiar with the music. Loved it!
A Revolutionary Musical Experience!
Despite not being a huge fan of rap or hip-hop, I was absolutely blown away by this show! The first half was truly revolutionary—both in content and form. The use of rap and hip-hop to tell the story of America’s fight for independence was brilliant. The natural energy and rebellious tone of these musical styles perfectly captured the spirit of the Revolution. The second half, with a more mature and settled America, shifted towards a more classic musical structure, but it felt just as compelling. It made sense that as the story progressed, so did the music, reflecting the changing tone of the country. Despite the shift in style, it remained excellent and captivating. Even if rap and hip-hop aren’t your usual go-tos, I highly recommend Hamilton—it’s a game-changing production that brings history to life in a way you’ve never seen before!
