I've seen him and the best way to describe it is that Jonathan groff plays George as pretty camp and sassy whilst the west end version just sounds so done with Americans 😂 and a bit more sarcastic of course. As much as groff puts in the effort he says a lot of words weirdly like "sad" or "mad" and this one fixes it

[@ErinKHayes-un5vl]

I know why they sound odd! The London cast is using a standard American accent whereas certain characters in the US Hamilton are using New York City accents. Leslie Odom Jr. is from Queens and has a rhotic R, which is why he says "landlord/afford" without pronouncing the R in those words. English folks also have a rhotic R, so using a non-rhotic R makes them sound more American for the play. It's also a good stylistic choice. In the US Hamilton, they want to emphasize New York City, but that's not the game plan as much for the London Hamilton. Using the non-rhotic R for Aaron Burr makes him sound nerdier almost.

[@grantmalone]

You're mixing up rhotic and non-rhotic. Rhotic is when you do pronounce the strong R. Interesting point about playing to specific crowds. What's interesting though is that the "odd" New York accent in the British version is probably more accurate historically. British English was largely rhotic until the 19th century, when the non-rhotic accent gradually spread from the upper classes as people imitated it. Large US east coast trading cities like Boston and New York had a lot of contact with the British, even after the revolution, and the non-rhotic R spread there too. At the time of Hamilton though, people in New York would still have a rhotic accent I think. It would be New YoRk, not New Yawk.

I love Hercules and Eliza's actors for this version, they are amazing!

[@jayess8714]

My girlfriend saw this in London and said it was straight up the best show she's ever seen. And that was during the interval.

[@Kate-he8ug]

I mean, people in the comments are saying bad things about aaron burr, and he is incredibly talented, and of course he belongs on that stage. Also, I doubt that anyone could really live up to Leslie Odom Jr, who is also very talented

[@redisthecoolestcolour]

😭😭😭 Alex gets his coat, books and bag from the three people who loved him the most: Eliza, Angelica and Philip (or Laurens for some of you).

[@majorliuser]

Stacey Smith it’s lauren’s because his hair is in a ponytail but Phillips hair is down

[@aliveperson9609]

bella liu the actor cant put his hair up or down in seconds so that’s not exactly and accurate way to tell, no offense tho

[@quaiful7487]

The "Just you wait!" And the the part where they all sing "Never learn to take your time!" Is always so good no matter which cast it is

[@maxgutman1849]

I love Hamilton and Alexander Hamilton I live in London

[@cm_0011]

Unfortunately I’m not that fond of how the guy who played Burr did the rapping. He doesn’t quite have the intonation and word emphasis down right. He sings the rap a bit too much. He sounds like his “Wait for It” would be amazing though!

[@ionalane]

i saw him live and omg his wait for it and room were it happens were amazing i get u with the rapping though. the whole cast was amazing aha

[@EdgarAmara]

Agree with Iona, his Room where it happens was actual better than Leslie's.

[@nathan8750]

Why does this version Burr feels like a Goofy trying to suppress his accent

[@canesisyummy]

LMAOOO

[@ilikeliquidchickens.4313]

The reason why he sounds like that is because he has a vocal irregularity, not because he's trying to suppress his accent.

[@newbcrimson]

I think cuz he’s British?

[@angelaphsiao]

Oh no i read this and now i can’t unhear it

[@lilyrosew96]

DYING 🤣

[@detectivefiction3701]

Who plays Hamilton?! He's outstanding (with all due respect to Lin-Manuel Miranda)!!

He really is!!

[@elizaeggplant8125]

After I watched this on Disney + I can’t imagine any other actors playing these roles! (Even though these people are amazing!)

[@rainsilverio7178]

I really loved their voices, the choreography and heartfelt performances you wanted to see live. Every words they sang, makes you want to know Alexander Hamilton story.

[@Ilma1984]

That's the cast I've seen in London two years ago. They were all brilliant.

[@armacino89]

Omg this Eliza sounds great!! ❤

They aren’t bad at all, they are talented but they need to sound “American”

[@-iceylemon-6998]

Naysa Rangai Yeah-

[@-iceylemon-6998]

That’s still pretty hard for them because someone them are British

[@ameliah5919]

Ok this is stolen from another comment I take no credit but these actors are doing the sort of classic American accent whereas the original broadway actors come from all over America, having accents that are still American but they’re different American accents. No hate just trying to inform :)

[@garnet6994]

Theres this musical called six, its british, when Americans do it, it's all chill, but when it's the other way the Americans go all insane

[@ameliappiano]

Garnet so true 😂.

[@CharlieTheAstronaut]

I like this cast as well, only Burr sounds like he does not fit in there, not saying he is not great, just not in this role perhaps...

[@CrazyFangirlReviews]

I agree I don't think his voice fits the role of Burr. He has a good voice just doesn't fit the character

[@thorandlundeve]

I think it's not his voice. The way they sang is quiet different in tone, rhythm, and pitching

[@jetadvincula6759]

@@thorandlundeve kind of agree with you, also its how he delivers the lines, maybe we're just so used (me personally) on how Leslie Odom Jr. did Aaron Burr. It just didn't somehow convey the emotion we should be feeling.

[@LOL-dd6fn]

I disagree, i thought he sounded awsome. I get some people may not have liked his voice but i really love the voice he put on. It's different but i like it

[@CharlieTheAstronaut]

@@thorandlundeve Exactly, I just don't feel it.

[@Elnont]

Jameal as Hamilton is honestly perfect casting, he was so brilliant when I saw him.

[@theirishninjasanimations]

Totally agree! And this is his third show ever as well!? He is amazing.

[@nyxiekitsune6]

I KNEW I SHOULD HAVE WATCHED IT! I was in London a while ago, and I tried to convince my mom to watch it with me. She was hesitant, and after thinking, I gave up and stopped trying to ask her. I SHOULD HAVE WATCHED IT!

[@Ditrix88]

Maybe I'm too used to the American version, but I think this Burr needs a lot more energy.

[@chokeimgay]

He has a speech impediment and I think that’s what’s holding him back. Nonetheless he’s absolutely amazing

[@raspberrybear4333]

No, he's absolutely fantastic. I saw it in London in May, and he was INCREDIBLE! Some of his songs I thought were even better than the original.

[@youunderestimatedmylazynes3416]

Raspberry Bear I saw this cast in London too and if you look past his speech he was pretty good

[@roems6396]

Raspberry Bear See, I agree that he was missing some of the emotion that Leslie’s performance had for this song. It was much better live?

[@raspberrybear4333]

@@roems6396 His performance here doesn't shed light on him. He is fantastic throughout the show - much, much better live. A lot of actors here aren't shown very well actually, and it's sad to see! They're all so good.

[@LOL-dd6fn]

This cast is great! They sound amazing especially when they all sing together!!!

[@jimmyvids4552]

I still find it amazing how they’re rapping without losing breathe or without making it obvious that they took a breathe 😩

[@littlemrsmods7998]

The London one was amazing and I personally before this cast more. Everyone in the comments is saying they prefer the USA version, but you can't really judge unless you've seen at least one live, honestly

[@Justin-ev8nn]

I don’t think any cast will beat the original one. They were too good.

[@jalaifm]

i’ve seen both....obc is obviously superior

[@abbyjune8114]

Eliza sounds amazing ❤😭

[@bookwoe5120]

I honestly don’t get why people don’t like this cast. They’re amazing, still not like the original but that’s why it’s called the ORIGINAL it’s hard to beat they great though

These acturly are one of the original casts as much as they are not or acturly have 1 member of the original brodway casr these are the original west end cast

I'm cracking up at the height difference between Alexander and Eliza 😂😂😂

[@brookebryant4887]

Omgggg the Eliza is SO good

In a way, it's surreal because of the musical's perspective on Britain. Now I want to see king George
