I know they said all the stuff about Lin being "non-stop", but I was surprised that no one said anything about the fact that he writes like he's running out of time. Like, there's even that infamous story about he said "okay hi welp I gotta go" at a friend's birthday party because he had the idea for Wait For It; that is incredibly Hamilton-like.
"I read that he was president."- Lisa Lampanelli LIN - "Don't do a thing history will prove her wrong." CAST- "But Lin!" LIN- "We have a show to perform let's move along." HAMILTRASH"Strong words from Liz someone oughta hold her to it." CAST- "I can't disobey direct orders." HAMILTRASH- "Then I'll do it."
Anthony is beautiful. Lin is perfect. Leslie has the voice of an Angel. Phillipa is queen. Daveed is a rap GOD. Renee lives her roles. Jasmine has the voice of a goddess. Chris Jackson has beautiful eyebrows. OAK IS FLAWLESS. And also... GROFFSAUCE.
dag gerish I can never say two quotes the same ever again: "We hold these truths to be self evident that all men are created equal" "Life Liberty and the pursuit of happiness"
Once Upon A Hamiltrash she is basically too good for our world... honestly everyone in the cast is cinnamon roll basically why Lin is called a "linnamon roll" 😂
A) GOD I need to see this musical. This looks like the best thing EVER. B) Bless Lin, what a freakin talent, I put him up there with Sondheim. C) The excitement of the cast I think is a total testament to the production material. D) Aaron looks like a blonde Alex Turner right now lol (random, I know)
Celebrities Hamilton never was President. He was also never set or in line to be President. Many of the founding fathers disliked Hamilton so much they passed a law that only natural born US could be President. He was born as an immigrant from the Caribbean. Yes that is why they had it in there. That is literally the first line minute of the play. How does a bastard, orphan, son of a whore And a Scotsman, dropped in the middle of a forgotten spot In the Caribbean by Providence, impoverished, in squalor Grow up to be a hero and a scholar?
The Constitution says you have to be a natural born US citizen or a citizen at the time the Constitution was adopted. This means Hamilton could have been president
What a beautiful time capsule. I never had the pleasure of seeing it in person with the original cast, so I can only imagine how electric it must've felt on opening night.
I was lucky enough to see it twice on the opening week. It was amazing and I will be seeing it the next time I'm in NYC. One of the, if not the best, show I've ever seen on Broadway or otherwise. Loved it!
I love how when Anthony ended the interview with "you're gonna get left behind" and it transitions to Jonathan Groff! Cus Left Behind was literally the best song sung by our Groffsauce
0:40 All I can imagine is her face when listening to the reynolds pamphlet in the middle of the show! Ha! "What do you mean he's never going to be a president now?! He was!"
"Then he decided to get into a duel with Arron burr and that didn't end well" "Spoiler!" So not a spoiler. Anyone who took an American history class knows how this show ends. I love this show and I can't wait to see it! Too bad an idiot got assigned to interview.
Amazing to see opening night of Hamilton a little over 5 years ago. They changed musical theater as we know it. It def marks a before and after. Anyone else notice Chris Jackson's thick eyebrows? They walked into the room (where it happened) before he does, lol.
Guys, the woman who said that Hamilton was a president is a STAND UP COMEDIAN. It’s literally her job to make jokes and display sarcasm! Read about someone before immediately judging them.
