"'Hamilton' is the most exciting and significant musical of the decade. Sensationally potent and theatrically vital, it is plugged straight into the wall socket of contemporary music. This show makes me feel hopeful for the future of musical theater."
The Wall Street Journal
Terry Teachout
"Historic. 'Hamilton' is brewing up a revolution. This is a show that aims impossibly high and hits its target. It's probably not possible to top the adrenaline rush."
"Absolutely love this show. First time seeing it on Broadway. Stellar performances and beautiful theater. Be weary, if you're a person that follows actual theater etiquette, you will be annoyed by the amount of people that think texting and being on their phone during a performance is acceptable.
Otherwise, everything else was over 5 stars."

INCREDIBLE!
"I couldn’t believe my ears, the voices were so perfect and polished it sounded like a recording, the cast I got to see is full of talent and they’re all amazing. I wish they record a 10 year anniversary Hamilton performance with this current cast. (Sept. 4th 2026)"

Best version I’ve seen
"I’ve seen Hamilton twice and listened to it on Amazon Music and they were all phenomenal! The first time my husband and I saw the play in London. We both loved it! The second time we saw it was at the Richard Roger’s Theater in New York. We were blown away!! The voices in this particular viewing were Stella! The dancing was nothing short of spectacular! The best way I can describe these dancers is as if they were machines and in the very best way. There wasn’t a miss step, a shake nor off timed step in the entire performance! The entire cast worked together as if they had been dancing together their entire lives. And seeing the show in NY was an added bonus! There was so much pride over being in NY, it added a special feeling that you couldn’t find elsewhere. If I could rate this show higher than 5 stars I would. Don’t miss this show!"

I get what all the rave was about
"It took me a few years but I finally took the time to see the live performance, and it was amazing. I knew the songs and had seen it on screen but the live performance is just thrilling. Excellent show, emotional, witty, one of a kind,"

Great show. History coming back!!!!
"Choreography was excellent. Acting was excellent. Language was kind of hard to follow but one gets the general ideas. Hamilton is not as well known as others. Good tribute to him."
"Loved the current cast, the performance was great. Came in from out of state and this was one of the main draws. "

Even better live!
"I saw the original cast of Hamilton’s recording on Disney+ so I thought there was no reason to go and see it live. Boy was I wrong! My kids talked me into seeing Hamilton on Broadway and I’m so glad they did! The acting was superb and the show is just such a visual and musical feast. Loved it!"

Amazing, Fast Paced & Dynamic!
"I loved Hamilton! The cast was incredible both vocally and theatrically!! The voices were strong and clear. I could have watched it all night! Brought me to tears at one point! Would highly recommend this show! The reason I wouldn’t recommend for children is the understanding you need around history and dynamics of the time. "
