Hamilton: A very serious musical

man I wish the original movie was more like this disney cruise line stage musical, who knew fucking Woody Toy Story actually had the biggest banger of a threatening villain-esque disney song?!

if you’re not following Broadway Beat then what are you doing

i say im fine then i remember this part of the original hadestown nytw production

i just saw a post that was the question “what is your favourite musical style?” and the option chosen was “random out of context songs from musicals sung by a character having a nervous breakdown” and i looked in the notes to see what people said and i saw this comment and i thought it was the funniest thing ever

Someone: You know your ship isn’t canon, right?

“By implicitly equating Eliza’s acts of narration with [Hamilton’s, Lin Manuel Miranda is] acknowledging the women who built the country alongside the men. You’re left wondering whether the “Hamilton” of the title isn’t just Alexander, but Eliza, too.” – Michael Schulman (The New Yorker)

i saw this on instagram and i just..

YES.

You can’t marry someone when you’re in love with someone else, can you?

This user is pro-movie-adaptations-of-broadway-musicals, cuz some of us don't live near a big city, or don't have the money to spare on tickets to live shows, so shut up, and let ME see it for myself you nitpicky, elitist bastards

Moments in Hamilton you can’t see or hear in the Cast Recording: Act I

Hercules Mulligan throwing flower petals at Eliza and Alexander’s wedding

When Angelica says ‘I’ll leave you to it’ in Helpless and you hear that beat and Eliza and Alex turn to each other as he offers his arm and they smile at each other

 After getting Philip Schuyler’s permission to marry Eliza, Alex grinds and does this weird little dance, only for her dad to walk in again-

The revolutionary bros dancing when they’re drunk after the wedding. If you’ve seen it, you know exactly what I’m talking about

Laurens and Mulligan cuddling up to Burr to tease him about Theodosia

The revolutionary bros, especially Burr, have to physically hold Alexander back to stop him from trying to argue with Samuel Seabry

BURR DOESN’T DANCE DURING WAIT FOR IT. HE JUST SINGS TO THE AUDIENCE AND I FEEL LIKE CRYING

Alex spinning Eliza around when does that gravelly voice in Helpless. You know the one

In Ten Duel Commandments, Burr and Hamilton are ‘the second’s’ and when they discuss whether the duel between Lauren’s and Lee is worth it, it looks just like when Burr and Hamilton duel later on

Alexander holding Eliza when he finds out she’s pregnant and when she says “I wrote to the general a month ago” and you hear that frantic, unbelievable, ‘no’ and he immediately retreats from her. It’s a little heartbreaking

The spotlight on King George in What Comes Next being red and when he says ‘I’m so BLUE’ he stomps his foot angrily and the spotlight changes to blue instead

Jonathon Groff’s Facial Expressions

Before Non Stop, Alexander receives a letter from John Lauren’s father saying he died. When Eliza asks him if he’s alright, while he looks at John across the stage singing ‘tomorrow they’ll be more of us’, Alexander says ‘I have so much work to do’ before jumping into Non Stop

Hamilton stands on a lot of tables during Non Stop

When Angelica is holding Alexander’s hand and sings ‘Don’t forget to write’ Alex stays facing her and freezes as the stage spins and then when Eliza starts singing, she’s in Angelica’s place and Alexander didn’t move and UGH POETIC

When the chorus sings “HOW DO YOU WRITE LIKE YOU’RE RUNNING OUT OF TIME” before we have Washington’s line (yea, you know the one) and the ensemble holds up a giant piece of wood on an angle to act as Alexander’s desk rather than him actually sitting at a desk and it’s COOL

Washington and Eliza being at opposite ends of the stage, both at the top of stairs while Alex sings up at them from the ground during Non Stop

Angelica joining in halfway, as well as Burr and then them circling around him as he looks lost while they all sing at him

HAMILTON SCREAMING ‘I’M NOT THROWING MY SHOT’ DURING ‘JUST YOU WAIT’ AND HIM FIRST PULLING HIS ARM AWAY FROM ANGELICA AND THEN HIS HAND FROM ELIZA BEFORE RUNNING UP THE STAIRS TO STAND WITH WASHINGTON TO SHOW HE CHOSE THE COUNTRY AND POLITICS OVER HIS FAMILY

PSA, this doesn’t include Act II please stop hunting me down at Pippa’s scream. And, I wrote this before the proshot so NO I didn’t add the bullet in because I COULDN’T SEE

me after hitting play on a musical I used to listen to all the time but took a break from
