Lin-Manuel promised to pull out all the stops and the ladies of Hamilton certainly threw down, but did not throw away their shots at an epic #Ham4Ham show.
okay but can we think of how proUD ANTHONY MUSTVE LOOKED WHENED HE SAW HIS DAMN GIRLFRIEND PERFECTLY RAP HIS PARTS LIke I wish we got more footage of them together
+Jessie Miller That is the cutest thing I have ever heard. If you watch lin when she sings that part you can see him copying her moves and getting real into it!
i love him. i think he's so generous. a more self-centered person would have done something like this with him still playing Hamilton and the ladies playing other parts around him. but he seems to be completely cool with saying "no you do it, you're gonna be awesome". i love that :)
hahahaha this might be the most relatable comment I have ever read on youtube xD xD xD watching Lin is so beautiful, especially when people are singing his parts of the show. He always is so supportive and looks so proud
Tbh I'd like to see some trans women on Broadway at all. Or any trans actors or characters. (I mean I know there's Hir, but that's a play and I think that's it anyway)
I think a part of it hard since he wrote them, but he is still moving like he does as if he is the one performing it still so I would think he is mostly relieved, if only because he is able to breathe a little more, since "My Shot" has so many lyrics.
I know! I want to see Anthony's face while she's doing it cos she's slaying it. Did you see Renee tug him a bit like she wanted him to do what her and Daveed did?
- Sasha Hutchings is the closest thing we're going to get to a lady version of Leslie Odom, Jr. She is a perfect Burr. - That little moment between Renee and Daveed where she's rapping about anarchy is simultaneously on fire and the cutest thing I've ever seen (much like Renee herself). - The lady playing Hamilton is Morgan Marcell, one of the swings, also known as Angelica Hamilton in the Ham4Ham with all of the kids, and she is astonishingly great. - Can we talk about how ecstatic all the cast guys are during this? I love how they all seem to just really appreciate and adore each other and each other's work, and they're having a blast doing this, and I'm so thankful this kind of stuff happens in the world. Thanks for posting, Mr. Sherman.
+Amanda McClendon Thanks so much for filling us in on who's who! I was just wondering who the lady Hamilton was -- she did a great job and seemed so excited!
The generosity of these performers to give this mini-show OUTSIDE before a hugely demanding performance just blows me away. I love them all so much, and this whole idea. Revolutionary in so many ways.
Daveed and Anthony are just swaying in the background probably thinking if the actors for Laurens and Lafayette/Jefferson didn't have to be male, they'd probably lose their jobs
+Howard Sherman You're partly right, but you deserve a spot up there too! Thank you so much for posting these videos and bringing this gold to us :). It does wonders for us folk who can't make it to New York! (Lin's pretty much the absolute best too.)
+Howard Sherman see this is why i wanted a picture with you yesterday but i was too flustered and excited that i was there to say thank you for taking all these videos! its because of you we get to see them without being in the crowd :)
i had a fucking question abt james madison and we had to guess who the president was the two clues i got were "wrote federalist papers" and "bill of rights" I WAS SCREAMING bc theres the line abt how madison wrote 29 essays and theres the "look back at the bill of rights- WHICH I WROTE
Holy crap, Lin is always so fucking excited in every Ham4Ham and is just absolutely precious. Also, CAN WE GET THE GENDERBENT VERSION OF THIS MUSICAL UP IN HERE?
Let's just point out a few things in this scene in front of us. The girls are all rapping to Aaron Burr, Sir and My shot obviously but there are some very hilarious details throughout the entire thing. Lin Manuel is standing with the huge group of girls rather than with the two other guys while what looks like simultaneously cringing and dancing along while pulling the hood tighter and tighter around is head. Anthony Ramos and Daveed Diggs seem to be awkwardly standing in the corner while bopping and trying to pass off their snickers as sneezes. The ladies are having a good time rapping and making the rapper arm motions. Meanwhile, the orchestra is calmly playing their instruments like regal unicorns except for the drummer who is intensely beating his drum and jamming out to the sick beats. Over all just another normal day at Ham4Ham.
I love all the ladies so much (even the ones that didn't get to do the main parts this time) and Lin was adorable dancing in the background and it's so cute and funny how Jasmine was singing Anthony's parts ahhhh I'm dying
Lin said that he was totally ok with this and he wanted to see one 2 and me and my group of friends are working of getting a version of hamilton filmed on our stage and thinking about switching genders around not every one though
Okay, a few comments: 1. Lin's dancing at the back. So adorable. 2. Alex Lacamoire and the band. OMG 3. The way the guys look at the women while they bring the house down. I swear the next time I go on a date I will choose a guy who looks at me the same way hahaha 4. Howard Sherman, you are heaven-sent, has anyone told you that? Thank you for these Ham4Ham videos, I get to see what's going on in the greatest city in the world from the other side of the world!
I love how Anthony was staring and smiling at Jazzy the whole time! Also, how when everyone was clapping above their heads, Lin was doing it and it looked soooo adorable!
