You’ll be glad you did. Blare the music and bass loud.

Too long, IMO. But very good. I think the second act gets a bit lost. Great show

I didn’t love the soundtrack until I saw it live in Chicago. Blown away

I thought the last 30 minutes or so kinda dragged. I had never seen it though, pretty good.

Watching it right now. Seems like I would enjoy it more live.

Also it kinda helps you realize these were very flawed men. But also very great men.

In my ignorant opinion, you could say Les Mis > Hamilton, but more than one ">" is insane. I love them both, default to

I think right now people hold this belief because LesMis is nostalgic for them. When you’re dead in 50 years I don’t

That’s like comparing the best pop song to the best hip hop song. Kind of

Is that that thing with white dudes raping about the founding?

No. They aren’t white.

West Side Story, Fiddler, and Hamilton are the top 3 IMHO. Hamilton is my #1.

It's just not great music, though. Great story, bland music.

I don't know how we would've done without subtitles on. I relied on them heavily to be able to follow.

I could have put subtitles on?!

Game changer. Luckily we had others who had seen it showing it to us, so they knew to put the subtitles on for us from
