Hamilton (NY) Tickets

The show was even better than I expected. Wonderful. I'm already looking for tickets to do this again!

This was completely amazing and I can not wait to go again. Went by so fast, Javier was awesome. The new Aaron Burr was great. Lexi Lawson was super. Bravo to the cast and the orchestra. I don't know how they put this together. I know why it took 6 years to write, it was a work of art.

Hamilton was awesome, from the opening to the finale. I just can't believe how difficult the Richard Rogers theater was to get around. Definitely not for the people who have walking difficulties. The steps are steep and no elevator! They only have bathrooms on the first floor, so the lines were very long. Thank goodness the show was spectacular, for I will not be returning to this theater. The four stars is for the show not the theater.

Hamilton is an amazing show. Even if you are not into Broadway musicals you should see this one. The modern music and multiracial cast make it fresh and fun. Plus you might learn a little about our country's history to boot! Even with the change in cast recently, the show still exceeds its hype. A MUST SEE!!

I read the book and Hamilton- revolution which gave a lot of insight into the incredible lyrics and other details. People cheered every number, all were so well performed, more than at any other show I've ever seen. I think I'd have appreciated it less without having the background knowledge. It was extraordinary on so many levels but listening to the cd and having everything in my head made it more memorable. Since people need to wait so long for tickets, I recommend they prepare before for the ultimate experience. I am sure that anyone without prior knowledge enjoyed the show also but not on the same level.I

We saw the show last night. I bought tickets nine months ago and was disappointed when half of the original cast left last month. But, I had heard great things about Javier Munoz so was excited to see him perform. However, for our performance, it was Javier's understudy and I felt he did not carry the show. He was flat, with little emotion. Definitely a talented singer, but for the hip hop parts it was monotone and spoken. The rest of the cast was excellent. However, I left very disappointed after waiting so long to see the show, paying through the nose for tickets, and incurring considerable travel expenses to get to NYC.

I bought tickets to this show nine months ago and worried a little when some of the original cast moved on. I needn't have. Javier Munoz was brilliant as Hamilton and every single cast member was amazing. I have never seen anything like it. The show was so powerful that I still can't stop thinking about it. I am looking forward to seeing it again when it comes to California.

I get it-subs are part of the "show must go on ethos". But Thursday's last minute sub for Hamilton was wooden, without charisma, and lackluster. We all left wondering why Washington would have picked him, why Eliza was so smitten? To have waited so long and paid so much to see this with a lead character that could not carry the show was so disappointing.

I was already in love with the music, but it was amazing to watch the actors physical interpretation of the lyrics, it brought an even greater depth of the words to me. I have never seen a musical with such intricate and physically demanding choreography. It is now the musical that I will judge all other musicals by.

Hamilton is different but still great. The newer cast (as of August 2016) are individually both stronger/weaker but not enough to be distracting to someone who has seen the original. It was easier to follow the lyrics and the staging is more "dramatic." Overall just as exciting as when first seen.

THE MUSIC, LYRICS, STAGING, LIGHTING, CHOREOGRAPHY ARE INCREDIBLE. THEY MORE THAN EARNED THEIR TONY'S. I SAW IT 3 TIMES WITH THE ORIGINAL CAST AND THE REMAINING WITH UNDERSTUDIES. I LOOK FORWARD TO SEEING IT AGAIN. JUST LOVED CHRIS JACKSON, ANTHONY RAMOS, ANGELA GOLDSBERRY FROM THE ORIGINAL CAST...AND WHO CAN FORGET DAVEED DIGGS, LESLIE ODOM, AND LIN MANUEL. THE DANCING IS PART OF THE SET DESIGN AND JUST WONDERFUL, ESPECIALLY THE JITTERBUG NUMBER DURING "WHAT DID I MISS?" TO TRULY ENJOY IT, I RECOMMEND TO ALL THAT THEY READ THE STORY, GET THE MUSIC AND LISTEN TO IT WITH THE LYRICS PRIOR TO GOING. THAT WILL MAKE IT MORE FUN. DON'T DRINK OR EAT BEFORE THE SHOW IF YOU NEED TO RUN TO THE BATHROOM FREQUENTLY...EACH ACT IS 90 MINUTES LONG. DIDN'T UNDERSTAND FOLKS BRINGING KIDS UNDER 10. IT'S TOO AN ADULT SHOW FOR THEM TO UNDERSTAND AND THE YOUNG KIDS I DID SEE WERE RESTLESS AND BORED. BUY YOUR SOUVENIRS AFTER THE SHOW. NO ROOM IN SEAT AREA AND THEY WON'T GET WRECKED TRYING TO PUT THEM SOMEWHERE.

After memorizing the soundtrack before seeing the show, it was everything we hoped for!

The musical itself was simply amazing. There was constant choreography, overlapping of lyrics, wonderful emotions portrayed by the actors, it was simply incredible. I sat in awe the entire time. The theatre was gorgeous as well, and the stage was sooo gorgeous! the use of the the revolving stage was well played and really enhanced certain scenes, and the sets that were used were also perfect! The ONLY complaint i would have out of everything would be the bathroom situation. The bathroom, mainly the women's, was located down a tight stair well and the line was so long it went into the theatre itself and wound back out to the lobby. More than several people were not able to make it back to their seats due to the bathroom size and intermission time. Aside from that the musical, in every aspect, blew me away and I would love to see it again and again and again! Please Broadway, release official films of your musical, I would pay a gracious amount of money for that! Some of my favorite moments were between the moment in yorktown where they represent the fact that the british have surrounded them by having many british soldiers stalk around the stage where Alexander and Washington are centered, and when Eliza finally breaks her stillness to take Hamilton's hand in 'It's Quiet Uptown', which absolutely broke my heart.

Whether you've just been hearing the buzz online or you've listened to every song on the cast album, Hamilton is an experience you have to have in person. The show is by turns exciting, poignant, revolutionary, and moving. The technical elements are beyond superb and they add a remarkable atmosphere to the show. If you can see it with Chris Jackson you definitely should--his voice is unbelievable. Lin Manuel-Miranda's writing is pure genius and I feel so lucky to have seen his vision in person.

You better crave hip hop and not care about costumes!

Wish we had seen it with the original cast but this is still the best play we've ever seen by a mile. I think Javier Munoz was close to being as good as Lin Manuel-Miranda but the other replacements were not as good. Still, I have no real faults and would see it again.

I purchased tix 9 months prior as a way to celebrate my daughter's and my birthday. My hope was that soon after the Tonys, I would get to see some original cast members, as original cast members usually stay in a show once it becomes "best musical." I could never have predicted that there would be a mass exodus of so many original cast members at the same time. When nothing could be done about that, I resigned myself to thinking that talented replacements, the material and fantastic music would carry the show. Much to my disappointment, there were just too many new understudies coming in and out to make that happen. I felt that there was not enough chemistry between the entire company to make the show feel cohesive. It seemed more like a performance of great music by some stand out people including Javier as Hamiliton. The rest of it was performed by understudies who you recognized as not being regulars. If it was the first or only show I have ever seen, perhaps I would have felt differently. With all respect to Lin, the show is fresh, unique in concept and the music is fantastic. However, I see many Broadway shows a year, and I walked out feeling let down. There were some easy things to fix. Someone had mentioned in their review about the music being so loud that it was hard to understand the words. That could be fixed! However, above all, there needs to be cohesiveness and chemistry among the actors. Though all the pieces are in place, it seemed to lack integrity. It stands to reason that with different people going in and out each night playing multiple parts, that is really hard to achieve. The original piece was solid because the actors appeared together night after night. . I'm sure that the original show truly lived up to all the hype, but the new evolution of Hamilton left this seasoned theater goer just not feeling it. Perhaps this is a transitional period for Hamilton, but go explain that to people who have paid premium prices and spent tons of money to get to NY to see it. There really needed to be some consideration and thought put into keeping the quality up to expectations given the price and support that the theater community has shown to Hamilton.

Beyond my expectations. Amazing from start to finish. Sad I didn't get to see the original cast though.

nonstop performance at the highest level in a lovely theater where you sit up close and personal to the stage action.

Going into the theatre yesterday having been reading the #Hamiltome book, listening to all the songs, practicing the raps and currently in the middle of Ron Chernow's biography, I had very high expectations for this show. By the end of "My Shot", my expectations were already met. I had an idea of what the staging, costumes and the use of the set would be like (which turned out to not be the case), but the way it all was couldn't have been more perfect. One part that I really loved was using the principle cast members who weren't in the action of the number stand and sing and dance on the platforms and still engage in what was happening in the scene. Before my Hamilton obsession started, I was really confused as to why people were saying it was "the best show ever". But now having seen the actual show and doing everything a fan of Hamilton can do, I understand why this show is so special. In a time where the mistreatment of minorities is still a controversial topic in this country, here is a hip-hop musical about the Founding Fathers, with most of the cast being minorities. When watching the cast perform characters who were white in real life, it reminded me that anyone can do anything they set their mind to - just like what the Founding Fathers did as well as the cast having their dream of performing on Broadway - no matter their race, religion, or sexual orientation. Also, this show doesn't have glitzy chorus lines, showy choreography, or big emotional ballads (with the exception of "Burn"). It adds something new to the world of theatre and is appropriate for the generation we currently live in. If you somehow get the possibility to see this musical, don't you dare hesitate once. Trust me, it's just as good as what the reviews say.
