[@fizzgiggio5521]

Aaron Burr is actually a pretty good person to study about in American History. He always stood away from things that would even cause the smallest issue, while Hamilton ran after those things as if his legacy would depend on it. Aaron Burr constantly stayed out of a lot of what the constitution was building on and a lot of people don’t know that he is one of our founding fathers because he didn’t really do a lot of the big things (compared to the others, I mean.) Hamilton on the other hand did things that would get his name out there so he wouldn’t just be a ‘bastard, orphan, son of a whore’ in America. The reason he wrote so much was because he wanted his name to be in history, knowing the only way we can figure out he existed is through artifacts of writing. Hamilton did drag his wife and kids around a lot (which, yes, they had 7 kids by the time he died so kids..Mhm) but he sent them to their summer home quite often. In the second act, you find out why. Act two of Hamilton is when you get into the more political thing of American History and how Hamilton (and others around him) got their legacy. Be aware that the timeline is a little different than what actually happened and I can talk about that for ages. I studied American History for so long because of this musical and my knowledge about it will always be useful. I love Hamilton because it gives you a modern insight of what it was like back then. Every aspect of this musical can make you understand why it took Lin Manuel nearly 6 years to write it. It’s truly beautiful and one of the best works of modern musicals today :)

[@jumpinthecadillac9507]

i almost said "don't spoil it!!" when you talked ab his death and then i remembered he's a historical figure lmaoo

Satisfied's choreography is helpless backwards and then forwards. Its to show the flashback angelica is experiencing but also shows how she takes the letters from elisa, like she wanted to do and take hamilton for herself. It then goes to the same choreography from the other songs until it goes back to helpless. It shows so much heartbreak tbch and I love it so much. There is so much thought in the choreo, movement and the use of the turning stage.. And I could gush for hours about the musical motifs of the characters and how they fit in the songs

[@artemischii]

The details in this musical are amazing, for instance: Lafayette starts in the musical stuttering and having trouble with the English language, and towards the end in guns and ships he is the fastest rapper. I just love that they added that little detail

[@rohitshenoy88]

@@lila7612 no, lin addressed this in his interview with leigh sales. lin wanted to make some character development simply through language to add further complexity to the show.

[@paulwagner688]

The only cast member that did not have a flub in performance was Renee. The entire cast talks about how incredibly PERFECT she was. Especially in Satisfied. She didn't miss anything in all of her run as Angelica. Renee is inhuman in her perfection.

[@liamwhite3522]

The studio recording is exactly that; recorded in a studio. They could redo every part until it was perfect, and no one had to dance while singing. The movie is recordings of 3 live performances, so there are slight inconsistencies.

[@BritishMotherfucker]

Yes

[@jcompton8507]

Part of what makes Hamilton so wonderful is the attention to detail. There are layers upon layers upon layers of historical and musical references. Not sure if anyone else mentioned this in the comments, but Lin uses different genres (and decades) of music to represent the personalities and political beliefs of different characters. For example, Hamilton and his friends are young and progressive, so their songs are mostly rap/hip hop. (And each has their own flow, paying homage to different 90s artists.) Because Burr is a little outside of the group, he's more R&B. (Wait for it is meant to sound like it could be an Usher song, and Usher actually covers it on The MixTape.) The Schuyler sisters are meant to sound like Destiny's Child. Since he's older (and the General and 1st Pres), Washington's songs are a mix of speaking/rapping, R&B, and Gospel. King George's song is supposed to sound like "British Invasion" Pop from the 60s. (e.g. Beatles) Since the political views of the Loyalist reading the proclamation (Samuel Seabury) are conservative and "out dated," his song sounds classical - complete with harpsichord!

[@Sephoronstew]

Lin is so fucking cool jeez😭

[@florette95]

I heard somebody point out also that since Jefferson wasn't there for about a decade, when he comes back with "What did I miss" he has an older style (kinda like blues?), like he missed a chunk of music evolution.

[@mtfan3457]

"oh he didn't die, He lives" 🎶Just you wait just you wait 🎶

[@KaitheKnightly]

If you are wondering why Hamilton didn't appreciate Washington calling him "son". It is because his father left him when he was very young. So having another man call him "son" is kindof triggering for him.

[@jcompton8507]

I think it's more that Hamilton feels like he's being coddled. He's roughly 20 at the time that this song would be taking place, so it's meant to feel like a "son" who thinks his "father" still sees him as a boy and not a man. And Washington, who never had children of his own (probably due to complications from small pox), really _did_ see Hamilton (and Lafayette) as the sons he couldn't have.

[@jujunotfound]

personal theory, i also feel like it could be foreshadowing for the following song (when eliza tells him shes pregnant!!) and hes going to HAVE a son soon :)

According to one of the cast members (I don't remember who specifically) the actress who plays Angelica didn't flub a line in Satisfied(and i think all of her other songs) once in the whole time they performed to show she always got the notes and words right

[@seineevee]

[@erenender66]

*"Being a fan of Leslie Odom Jr. and Renée Elise Goldsberry for 22 minutes and 34 seconds" there! fixed the title for you Mathew :)

[@angelicalicari8355]

Random thoughts: -IDK if you've seen Frozen, but Jonathan Groff (King George) is the voice of Kristoff in the movie Frozen. -Part of the reason for the specificly colored costumes is the colorblind casting. Any company in the world can cast any main character as any ethnicity, and you'll be able to find them on stage thanks to their costume design. -The original version of the Schyler Sister's song didn't have so many harmonies and runs; Lin added the badass vocals when he heard what the actresses could do

[@msblondie]

The incredibly talented woman that played Angelica is named Renee Elise Goldsberry, and she actually won a tony for her role in this show, as well as Leslie Odom Jr. who plays Burr

[@pigs18]

In fact, they only Tony Awards it *didn't* win in the fourteen categories for musicals were Best Lead Actress, Best Set Design (which is was nominated for despite having a minimalist design), and Best Revival (for which it isn't eligible but will surely win in about fifty years). They had three nominations for supporting/featured actor including Jonathan Groff (George III) who has about five minutes of stage time.

Pair that song with the workshop version of Schuyler defeated (SD then let it go) And you see just how angry Hamilton was Workshop ver. Adams Administration - yep. Salty Hamilton. Worship ver. hurricane - some real good lines in that one. Not much is different but man Dear Theodosia reprise - sad burr That other version of your obedient servant. Man.

[@sterthester736]

There's SO much going on in this Musical and it's amazing, from the vocals and instrumentals to the choreography. Satisfied is one of the coolest scenes purely due to the fact that it "rewinds" and replays and pauses the scenes from Helpless as she sings it. I also adore the king, who's portraying King George the Third, who is suspected to have had Manic tendencies in his later years and possibly had Bipolar disorder and possibly had bad effects from Arsenic poisoning. He was royally pissed off at the Revolution when it was happening but he did ultimately accept the loss and recognize the new country.

[@marar8045]

As a law student that had to read some of those essays, I laugh when Burr says “no one will read them”.
