Have you seen the musical Hamilton? Would you recommend it?

I have listened to the soundtrack and it definitely has some strengths.
I know that it has some fairly rave reviews, but I'm still on the fence.
Just wondering if the stage production is worth getting a 2nd mortgage and selling some family heirlooms to buy tickets?

TIA

It’s great. Saw in Chicago. Had listened to soundtrack many times

It was cheaper to fly to Chicago to see it than to buy tickets locally. Many

Not worth that, but it’s worth seeing - especially if you like the soundtrack

It is all rap. I hate rap. I LOVED Hamilton. I can't figure it out.

This was exactly me. I still can't understand why i loved it so. It's genius.

Went. Ended up watching the Jazz game on my phone. The singer people were angry.

Pretty good. There are two touring productions. So you will get a chance to see

The touring company is more expensive then in residence. At least in Utah where

3 times. Twice in Chicago, and once in London.

How was the London crowd? Mostly tourists, or locals too? Would definitely be

Mostly local when we went in November. We heard very little American accents.

We just went in london. Mostly locals who laughed at the king george stuff

I loved it. It surpassed all of my expectations.

Didn’t like it nearly as much as Les Miserables

Les Mis is about as high a bar as exists

Meh. It's overrated. Nothing different from any "new" musical in the last

Unpopular view but I kind of agree.

Uncle Bluto

I feel the opposite. May not be everyone's cup of tea but so unique in the genre

runnincoug

Yes. Go. We bought the "cheap" seats and after seeing it wished we had spent
