Hamilton was simply incredible! I already knew the musical and had seen the Pro Shot on Disney+ several times, but it was a completely different experience live. The energy on stage, the music, the choreography - everything was perfectly coordinated! The actors were great and there were so many little details in the production that made the whole thing even more special.
The set was just like the original, and although I knew what was going to happen, there were always moments of surprise. The choreography was so precise that it was almost mesmerizing, and you could tell how much work and passion went into it!
But my absolute highlight was the king. Every time he came on stage, the whole theater laughed. His facial expressions, the way he spoke (sang), everything was just perfect.
I think the current cast really did an incredible job with the musical. Even if you already know Hamilton, it's totally worth seeing it live. If you're in London, you should definitely not miss Hamilton!
