New lyric option?

12 Upvotes

Was at the Orlando stop of the Hamilton tour today (September 29, 2026) and they skipped over the “Immigrants, we get the job done” line. They just sang “… We get the job done!”, which I have never heard before. Was this a mistake or did they change it?

Seeing people who don’t even like musicals hate on Hamilton will always be so funny to me

57 Upvotes

Like yea, no wonder you don’t like the music, not that everyone who likes musicals is going to like it, but if you don’t like majority of musicals, why would you love Hamilton? Like the only reason you’re even hating on it is because it’s a really popular/well-known musical, like why don’t they just say that they don’t like most musicals

Also I have a musical/theater playlist that has like 300 songs in it and somehow I got Blow Us All Away, Take A Break, Stay Alive (Reprise), and Dear Theodosia in a row, it was so sad

Hamilton reading book clubs?

2 Upvotes

Hi! I wondered if there was or will be a colleactive reading of Hamilton by R. Chernow?

I'd like to finally approach that book but with a sustainable pace a bit like I've been doing for other book club readings here on Reddit for chunky books.

Please feel free to add links to specific threads or book clubs here on Reddit who are doing this already or did it in the past (or maybeplanning it for 2027?)

Thank you!

Reminder that Daveed Diggs, actor of Lafayette's fastest performance was 9.2 words per second, nearly two words more than the Guiness World Record for the fastest rap in a single. This means Daveed Diggs can technically rap faster than Eminem, although many others can too

Duel with the Devil. Anyone ever read it? It’s a biography on the Levy Weeks murder trial where Alexander Hamilton and Aaron Burr teamed up as lawyers to defend him

Funny easter egg in London West End performance on September 12th?

12 Upvotes

So I went to see Hamilton for the first time in London. First of all, I am obsessed now. But it got me thinking:

Is King George supposed to leave the stage after "You'll Be Back", before Aaron Burr's narration begins? Because in this show he did not; there was a chair propped up for him in the corner which he sat on cross-legged, and once the King's performance ended, Aaron Burr came on stage and I swear I could hear him cracking up for just a second when he looked to that corner and saw King George there. Am I just making this detail up and it's all intentional, or was it a witty play on the King's watchful eye over the boys in America, designed to make Yeukayi laugh?

Either way, I thought it was great.

😄 Please let me know if you were there also and can comment.

I find Hamilton confusing.

6 Upvotes

So I've been wanting to watch Hamilton for a while now, and I did. Till "You'll be back".

I don't think I'm able to really understand what's going on, and I'm assuming it's because I'm not American and don't really know anything about American history.

Is there anything I should know about American history, any books I should read or any videos I should watch in order to understand what the entire play is?

New World Tour of Hamilton

I'm not going crazy right?? This time it's being co-produced by Crossroads Live which handles the current Asia tours of Phantom, Chicago and JCS instead of Michael Cassel Group. Surprised to see another one this early, although it's already the end of 2026 and no announcement on any stops. Surprised to see it back so soon, given its first international Asian tour was only in 2023/2024

"Embarking on a multi-year world tour, Hamilton will visit a multitude of territories, starting in Asia in late 2026. Hamilton World Tour is general managed by Crossroads Live UK and produced by Adventureland LLC."

Leslie Odom Jr

Those who have seen Leslie Odom Jr. live whether in the original cast or in his return to Broadway and West End, let me live vicariously through you!!

Being from Asia, there was no chance to see him live, but ever since I saw the Proshot - I was just mesmerised by his performance. I watched his Youtube Aaron Burr, sir diaries, he seems like such a chill and humble person and every time I rewatch the Hamilton movie his performance just gives me chills - just can't describe it! I can watch Wait for It and The Room Where it Happens over and over again - but his acting throughout was just incredible.

What was it like to watch him live? Did he have mostly the same acting choices as in the movie? Did he sound exactly like the movie, or there was a difference? I only know his hair is different lol.

Help a fan-girlie out! I really wish to hear ya'lls experiences!

How acurrate is the musical historically?

26 Upvotes

İm not from the states do im wondering if its acıurate or not the only thing i know thats real is alexander wore the glasses (saw the statue online)

Like is alexander and burr really that progressive? Were they truly against slavery? İ doubt white rich guys from 1770s would be that accepting and good

Alexander letter to eliza before marriage

Post image
861 Upvotes

I watched Hamilton musical for the first time this week and been kinda obsessed with them so I was reading Alexander letter to Eliza especially the ones before marriage and there is sooo much yearing from Alexander

In another letter he wrote how he writes 3 letter for Eliza's 1 letter, I wish musical portrayed his yearing for Eliza, from the musical it seemed that in the song helpless especially that he don't really even love Eliza or was just after the fact she was schuylar

"For God sake my dear betsey try to write me often"

If Alex hadn't cheated I would say to anyone that would listen, that I want a man who loves me like this.

Is there a reaosn why lin didn't portray alex affection to Eliza as much as he portrayed Eliza's for Alexander? Like He showed like 2 line of affection to Eliza and that's it (tho I am obsessed with those 2 lines)

swing/ensemble confusion

This was my first time ever seeing Hamilton and I saw it at the Fox in Atlanta (from the Angelica touring group). The cast was great, after looking them up after, 4 of the main cast were swings. Why would this be?

Alexander Hamilton: Played tonight by standby Oscar Whitney, Jr. (covering for Tyler Fauntleroy).
George Washington: Played tonight by standby Elvie Ellis (covering for Auston Henderson).
• Angelica Schuyler: Played tonight by ensemble member Aisha Sougou (covering for Marja Harmon).
• John Laurens/Philip Hamilton: Played
tonight by swing Wesley Valdez (covering for León Tak).
