We truly enjoyed the production of Hamilton on July 31. It was excellent all around.
This well staged musical left me awe struck. The actors, music, stage design, costumes and story portrayal were all brilliant. Bravo!
Arrived in wheelchair and had amazing quick access to the show. Facilities in the building were accessible and appreciated. Show was amazing. Understudies in many roles were AWESOME! Loved the set singers and scenes! So worth the trip.
I didn’t know what to expect when I decided to go to see “Hamilton”. I found the music refreshing and the singing and harmonies fantastic. The costumes were beautiful and the acting was superb! I’ll be buying the sound track to listen to the songs more closely. Thank you for such a wonderful experience. What an incredible show!
The performance was absolutely amazing. Definitely worth the price!!
Although the musical was well done, I had to strain to hear the words. I see that other reviewers had the same problem. This made much less entertaining for me. I would not recommend it.
I don't typically like live plays or musicals, but I went to see this with a friend because they wanted to go. It was absolutely stunning! The songs are brilliantly written, funny, and dramatic. The choreography is engaging and flows beautifully, blending different styles. And the story is fantastic. It's worth seeing if you can afford the tickets!
The show was great and the performers were very entertaining. My one disappointment was that I like to hear the words of a song (any song) and unfortunately I could only decipher some words for almost all the songs. It made me feel like I was missing the ‘story’. I was straining to hear the words but could not. I heard a man down the row from me say he same thing to his wife, when going out for intermission. So I don’t think it was just me. It was not volume related.
Found music too loud and words of same hard to understand. Dancing was excellent. Would not recommend.
Great show. The props and background was very high class. The actors were very strong and did a great job. I do agree with others that say, the slang the actors used made it tough to understand at times. Also, read up about Hamilton beforehand so that you can see what the play is portraying.
My first ever live theater performance and it was absolutely AMAZING! The cast killed every performance and song, and not forgetting the ensamble who added so much with their dancing and stage directions that brought do much depth to the show. I would love to see Hamilton again live, and wouldn't miss it for the world! 100/10
Loved this, the cast were awesome, they just bounced off each other so naturally. Amazing voices, would watch again and again! Well done!!
Amazing show, loved every minutes of it and would see it again and again!
Very talented performers. A good show but certainly not of the same calibre as Phantom or Les Miserables.
Loved the performance. A little hard to hear actors when they were at the back of the stage. Also wish the play bill had more info about the characters and which characters were singing which songs. Kept having to refer to Internet for guidance. Overall, it was a great show.
After 2 years of waiting (because of the COVID-19 pandemic), I finally was able to experience this incredible show first hand. The actors, the ensemble, the singing, the dancing, the roller coaster of emotions. Absolutely spectacular. They all did an amazing job (shoutout to the understudies I saw perform!) Anybody who has the chance NEEDS to see Hamilton: The Musical live in person at least once in their life and here’s the main reason why. The stage setup and all the action that happens in the background that you don’t see in the soundtrack or in the recorded performance on Disney+. Incredible. Beautiful. Side note: I’ve fallen back into my Hamilton phase so hard after 2 years HA.
Seeing Hamilton live blew my mind! I was so excited for this experience so I had super high expectations and the show absolutely lived up to my expectations. Big props to the production team who made this show exactly what I imagined. The only thing I wish was that the intermission was a bit longer, 15 minutes wasn't a whole lot of time to wait in line for the washroom and get a drink.
My husband and I loved it. The story, music, performance, stage, everything. Such respect for the entire cast and crew.. i would see it again. Thanks for touring!!
It was just so amazing to see. Being a dancer and having done a Hamilton production this past year it was just so pretty to see. And having a love for doing hiphop, it really makes me want to dance on Broadway with this show, whether being touring or on Broadway itself. Watching this show was just like a dream I didn’t want to wake up from.
It was absolutely amazing. Loved every minute of it
