"'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."

"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."
"One of the few people left who hadn’t watched the movie of the original cast or listened to the soundtrack before seeing it on broadway and I absolutely loved it!"

Don’t miss it!
"The theater was beautiful and clean. The attendants were friendly. When we had an issue with someone taking pictures throughout the first act, the attendant was quick to correct it. We had the special drink and it was really good! Otherwise standard candy and popcorn choices. The show itself was amazing! I have watched it several times on streaming and listened to the soundtrack for years. To be in the theater is whole new and wonderful experience. If you have this on your list of maybes- make it a must do!"

It made my daughter cry (in a good way)
"When Christopher Jackson walked on stage, my 18 year old daughter burst into tears and did not stop crying. She loves Hamilton and it was such a joy to watch her enjoy this show that she holds so dear to her heart. It was a highlight of our trip to NYC."

I have seen Hamilton three times
"Nothing made the story pop like the original staging and choreography. The venue is not the best for rest room access and comfort, but acoustics were great. Mainly, see the show in NYC. Nothing better."

Masterpiece
"“Hamilton” on NYC Broadway is required American literature. An absolute masterpiece! I clapped and cheered and by the end of the show I was reduced to tears. Each member of the cast did a marvelous job. They are all skilled entertainers. “Hamilton” is the “Phantom” of this era. I look forward to the day I can come see this show again in New York’s world famous theater district!"

Not to be missed
"There is nothing I would recommend changing. It was absolutely genius. Will see it again if I’m able. Only other musical I’ve loved more is Les Miz which I’ve seen 5 times. Only drawback to Hamilton is the actual story ending in death by duel."

Better than I expected
"I am a big history fan and was not sure what to expect with this production. I knew a little about the show but not the extent of the music. It took me a bit to get into the hip hop style but I ended up enjoying the show. The energy of the cast and the audience made for a very enjoyable experience."
