Two days and counting! I wonder if Disney+ will crash with so many people trying to watch Hamilton?

We saw Hamilton last year at the Victoria Palace theatre in London and it was amazing. I'll be signing up for the Disney+ basic plan to see it again. The play is fantastic! Everyone have a fantastic July 4th holiday.

I am so excited for this as well.  I think people that call it a 'rap opera' are totally wrong. There is rap and hip hop, but the musical has so much more in there ... the 11 o'clock number, some R&B, toe tapping tunes.  Don't throw away your shot and miss this, rise up and enjoy it one last time in the room where it happened. 

 

My heart breaks every time I hear It's Quiet Uptown.  Listen to that and still tell me it's a rap opera.

I'll be watching!  Saw it on stage, in LA,  with some of the original cast members.  Loved it, and was going to see it again this year in DC.  Covid spoiled that for us

I just watched this, Hamilton is a MASTERPIECE and Lin Manuel Miranda is a GENIUS, there I said it! I LOVED it!! The music and lyrics, the acting, choreography, staging, were all magnificent! I loved every song, I was in tears at the end. The movie I think was about 2:40, it flew by.

After I watched Hamilton, there was a suggestion that since I watched this I might like The Sound Of Music! Yeah, these two shows have so much in common, the only thing similar are they are both musicals.

I went food shopping yesterday, I am friendly and talk to all the employees I see every week. So I tell one of the produce guys, I'm going home and I'm going to watch Hamilton on Disney+. Well the produce manager overhears me ( he has never said more than good morning to me, not because he is unfriendly, I think he is shy) he proceeds to have a conversation with me, his wife bought tickets for Hamilton on Broadway for their anniversary a couple of years back! Hamilton, a good icebreaker!
