An unforgettable experience from start to finish. The performances, music, stage design, and energy throughout the show were all absolutely outstanding. Coming from Paris, this was my very first English musical, and Hamilton completely exceeded my expectations.
My girlfriend and I were originally seated in the front row, but the view wasn’t ideal (1st photo), so we decided to pay extra to move to better seats and fully enjoy the show and honestly (2nd photo), it was 100% worth it.
If you’re planning a trip to London, this is a show you absolutely have to see.

Hamilton completely lives up to the immense hype! From the very first number, the energy is electric. The way the lyrics are written is pure genius. The cast is phenomenal, bringing passion and charisma to every role. The choreography and the rotating stage are also amazing. If you have the chance to see it, take it. Do not throw away your shot!

Hamilton was absolutely AWESOME, wow. I've been looking forward to going to it for like 2/3 of a year. It was so much better then just watching it or listening to it (the OBC are unbeatable, of course, it was better because it was live.). Alex Sawyer, who played Alexander Hamilton, was absolutely AMAZING, his singing and acting skills were top notch. (Everyone else was great too, obviously, but I don't have time to write an essay about each of them. I'd need about 6 months for that, and there definitely still wouldn't be 51 essays.) I loved the small changes they made to the show. Here's some of my favourites because I have a constant need to share my thoughts: • In Farmer Refuted, when Alexander said "my dog speaks more eloquently than thee", Hercules started barking (really high pitched, i dont know how he did it??) and Lafayette literally held him back. • I'm pretty sure Alexander and John (Laurens) weren't meant to hug or hold hands every time they were next to each other onstage. The actors KNEW what they were doing and I'm not complaining. • At the start of The Story Of Tonight (Reprise) Hercules said "Let's have another round, gents." • (This technically isn't a change because Jonathan Groff (OBC King George III.) did it too.) The king (played by Kiran Patel) was really funny, he always focused on a specific member of the audience (he pointed at me once) • The king was TALL. In I Know Him they chose the shortest (SHORT) ensemble member to whisper to him so first she wispered into his lower shoulder nd then he bent down by bending his legs inward •They ran onstage giggling in The Story Of Tonight (Reprise) • Phillip was REALLY silly. After his adorable rap solo, he ran to Alexander, hugged him really tight and ran up the stairs on all fours •In What'd I Miss, when Jefferson said "He grabs my arm" he grabbed Maddison's arm, Maddison pulled his arm away and wiped it with a handkerchief. There's so much more I'd like to say, but I don't have time. Thank you to the cast, production team, orchestra, original writer (Lin-Manuel Miranda) and anyone else involved in making this possible. The actors were really sweet, they signed my playbill and let me take selfies with them. Ya'll slayed.
