#hamilton live

[an0mal1es]

so.. guess who saw hamilton live on broadway last wednesday?

anyone who knows me at all knows what this experience meant to me. My mom told me that she put funds together with my brother to snag me and her some nosebleeds and i cried like a baby😭 a little embarrassing to do in front of my mom but LOL we ball.

things have been so unfathomably hard with my father in recent, who i've already talked about is extremely abusive both physically and verbally and just really emotionally unstable. i'm not gonna sit here and explain it but these last two years have been complete and utter hell and stress as i've been singlehandedly protecting my little sister from my dad's wrath.

mama bought me tickets to hamilton because she wanted me to have at least one happy spot in the midst of my recent struggles. and oh my God. i have never experienced anything that lifted my spirits like this play has. i love hamilton so much and dreamt of seeing it live. i cried far too many times to count.

since seeing it i've felt so uncharacteristically optimistic about this year. i think i can get through it. it is joys like these that make it all worth it, after all.

thank you to all the actors and stagehands and musicians and just everyone who made this experience one of a kind! you were incredible!

and thanks to lin manuel miranda for writing such a masterpiece of a musical. it has changed my life.

Other Act 2 observations:

* Washington looking at Alex like "what is wrong with you?" When Alex steps in front of him to shake Jefferson's hand.

* King George blowing Burr a kiss during The Adams Administration

* Ghost Washington hanging out in the upper levels during Blow Us All Away and Election of 1800.

* The most emotional Eliza I've ever seen she was so sweet.

* My youngest sister detests Act 2 Alex wirh every fiber of her being and has agreed to watch the movie with me so I can live blog her rage.

Hamilton is fanfic, and its historical critics are totally missing the point

Fans know exactly what Hamilton is about. Why don't historians?

Like countless fanfic writers before him, Miranda clearly loves his canon, but he expresses that love by tearing the canon to pieces. Like countless fanfic writers before him, he remains as close to the letter of authenticity as possible while also completely deconstructing the worldview he’s been given.

Hey people watching Hamilton Live there’s a moment right before the end of Act One during Non-Stop where Hamilton is standing between Eliza and Angelica from the camera angle and acting there is behaviour Hamilton engages in where it looks like he is for a moment physically and verbally abusive towards Eliza, and as someone who grew up around that sort of behaviour it absolutely triggered me so please keep yourselves safe. The time stamp is 1:15:10 - 1-15:20
