Hamilton | West End LIVE 2024

[@norarivkis2513]

I admit I think it's hilarious to hear a British crowd enthusiastically singing, "When are these colonies gonna rise up?" 😂

[@riddlussy3109]

How

[@carriew5106]

During this General Election campaign I think it's a very positive sign.

[@Midlander83]

Right…there is a section of British society that aren’t over the end of Empire. They vote Reform, or Conservative (as in they will even this time round), and have no sense of humour about the Royals either. And it’s an ageing demographic. The rest of us? Yep, happy to laugh at our country 😂

[@danculbert6349]

To be honest, the United Kingdom took over so many parts of the world that losing the battle of independence isn’t even a significant part of British history 😂

[@norarivkis2513]

@@danculbert6349 I know. There's a marvelous book called Redcoats and Rebels, that tells the history of the American Revolution from the British point of view. It's charming how little it mattered to most British, even at the time. The King was annoyed, and so were a few parliamentarians, but fundamentally the colonists won their independence not because they made it impossible for the British to defeat them but because they made it expensive and irritating, and so they quit bothering. It would probably have been different if the British had any real idea at the time just what enormous resources were going to end up in the hands of whoever governed that continent. But they didn't have that information at the time. Losing India mattered a lot more.

[@ThatPersonK]

You can just see how happy and amazed that so many people are singing along word for word. That must be so amazing for theatre actors as normally they don’t have audience participation.

[@xAbbieCx13]

The fact that this cast hasn't even done a full week of shows yet and they slayed this hard!!

[@rorylawy]

Peggy really Peggy’d😂😂

[@christinebrett4825]

I must say Alexander Hamilton had a cute grin. If I was about 30 years younger. He looks cheeky 😂They were amazing. I've never seen it. My son and daughter in law have seen it. They said it was absolutely amazing

[@DisventuredBeth]

@@rorylawy I love the way she said the first "and Peggy!"

[@tomascaro5224]

The actress of Angelica is insanely amazing. She has the sass, the movement and the big sister vibe

[@carriew5106]

"Its time to rise up" said the British voters, just a few hundred yards from 10 Downing Street.

[@mqrscc]

stop this has me giggling so hard😭

[@emminet]

ohh that got me goodddddd

[@hulk239239]

Looks like it worked!

[@carriew5106]

@@hulk239239 the West End show tweeted an image on Thursday that said "this is not a moment, it's the Movement" with the words "The country is asking to hear your voice". So they saw some parallels too!

[@narr482]

“Burr” at the start is like… hold up yall really know all the words 😅

[@nikap18]

This whole cast has crazy charisma but the actress for Angelica is a rockstar!!

[@SunyiSideUp]

I love her performance! She really owned it!

[@ianirvinagner308]

Dang this crowd knows how to sing!

[@narr482]

The energy the crowd brings omg to realise people who come to see the shows know every word

[@jkecollins]

This may just be the best Hamilton cast I've ever heard! Their energy is unmatched and I LOVE the diversity

[@deedubb3605]

I was thinking the same thing! They come the closest I’ve seen to capturing the essence of that original Broadway cast to me.

[@黃靖涵-u7e]

*Cast of this performance* Alexander Hamilton / Alex Swayer Aaron Burr / Manaia Glassey-Ohlson (Standby, but as main cast from 17 June to 13 August) Eliza Schuyler Hamilton / Nathania Ong Angelica Schuyler / Jordan Frazier George Washington / Aaron Lee Lambert (Standby) Marquis de Lafayette / Sam Sarpong-Broni (Swing) John Laurens / Jordan Benjamin Hercules Mulligan / Jordan Castle Peggy Schuyler / Elizabeth Grace Armstrong (Ensemble)

[@Beth1602]

[@nviscallin3702]

Will this be the september cast

[@bangtanbreyan]

isn’t nathania ong the first broadway singaporean or smth

[@recoverycxvpher975]

Such a great performance! Especially Eliza ❤ her dad is my dentist and he is super crazy proud of her. So wonderful to hear the stories of his daughter from him 🎉 congrats ❤

[@thomasscottwilliams6672]

The crowds in Trafalgar Square are definitely on form, great to hear the audience joyful participation

[@gari_uk]

I don't think I've ever seen such an enthusiastic reaction at West End Live before - this was incredible to watch! Great job :D

[@Intersectingstuff]

This Hamilton is gorgeous!! Watched Nathania Ong as Eponine, so excited to see her here!!

[@Danie.M]

Rightttt?!? I got to see her as eponine last year and I’m hoping to watch Hamilton again but with her as Eliza (last time I watched Hamilton was with Rachel anne go as Eliza :))

[@katyfranklin5248]

I knew she looked familiar! She was superb in les mis

[@louyou5667]

Am I imagining things or is the sound better than the last few years?

[@ThatPersonK]

You’re not the sound has been so much better this year!

[@Tr1sh4Lynn]

I gotta say I am loving this Burr. He’s so damn smooth.

[@resintasulistiyandari3185]

i had no idea the aaron burr of the west end was this hot😫

[@PatrickKCompton]

Love that everyone in the crowd is singing!!! That is Awesome, Wow, fun!

[@karo2750]

Manaia is the best Aaron burr I have ever seen (I have a crush on him 😅)

[@daisydelrey]

saw this cast on thursday what an amazingly talented group of people xxx

[@gracieb24]

This Hamilton actor is amazinggggg!!

[@maggieheartsyou]

Can’t wait to see this cast in London next week!! So excited. Burr is so GOOD!

[@Jinxx9081]

Man this cast is amazing. I love the original cast but these guys could definitely give them a run for their money. 👍🏻

[@cameronclarkhull]

in all the years i've watched West end live, i've never heard the crowd be this loud... insane

[@LadyNaty31]

I saw them yesterday at Victoria's and they were on fire. Had the audience crying ❤

[@m4atths]

so happy to see Manaia playing Burr again! he is the best 😭🫶🏼

[@TrevJ91]

Damn this Angelica can fucking spit. I love her flow. She’s amazing! Come do the US tour please 🙏🥹

[@stockwellsantley6606]

Absolutely adore the audience just singing along and knowing every word! Tears! What an experience for cast and audience both! I've never seen anything like this.

[@midnite22767]

Fantastic performance! Energy from the crowd is amazing! Just saw Hamilton on Broadway in the States. The line "History is happening in Manhattan and we just happen to be in the greatest city in the world" hits different when you are in NYC! Bravo to this cast, so great to see Hamilton's popularity is universal.

[@panagiotiskountouras1003]

Here we have the best performance of West End Live 2024! What a cast!!!

[@laurenadelle]

Wow! What a cast. 🎉

[@itzmeliliyt5292]

I saw this cast perform on Thursday, and they were truly amazing!! My favourite musical of all time!

[@AnntheTheatreFan]

If you've ever rooted for Burr, this is him❤

[@ATacoCat76]

Went to the performance July 4th at the Royal theater. I don’t think there are any words to describe how amazing it was. I only wish I had a recording. I would watch it everyday, no exaggeration. ❤

[@RositsaNikolova]

That energy is uplifting! I couldn't stop smiling like a madman on the train. I wish I was there instead :)

[@H4ppy_Akk0]

THIS CAST IS AMAZING

[@ellietandy2423]

THIS CAST IS INSANEEEE

[@martyna.h753]

I can't stop watching this, the new cast is wonderful and Alex Sawyer is the best Hamilton I've ever seen

[@francescamoscetta]

100% ❤ was lucky enough to see him twice as Hamilton, loved his performances

[@angefish]

So proud to see Nathania Ong as Eliza!!! 🇸🇬

[@JaimeDavis17]

Is that Nathania Ong!?

[@JP-uk4rk]

Yes!

[@Daisy-w9b]

love love LOVE this eliza 😫

[@maartjeklein99]

Don't want to admit how many times I've rewatched this performance 😂🙈. Easily my favourite performance of the day. So glad they finally kept in the audience singing along 🙏😍

[@emminet]

If I was even anywhere near where this is running, I'd be going!

[@DisneyDanz]

Manaia wearing his pounamu taonga has me in tears 😭

[@emirachelnatalie3397]

yess as a kiwi I was waiting for someone to mention this! So cool to see someone from Aotearoa represented!! Plus hes so talented (obvs)

[@はるはな-l5h]

It looks really fun for the audience to sing together.

[@mqrscc]

oh gosh! i really hope i can go and see this cast - they look incredible and the energy is DEFINITELY there! jordan (angelica) has SUCH a gorgeous accent and everyone is so good at singing💕💕

[@isabelletws]

3:24 so cool that there's someone doing sign language for the performance! 8:51 moving to the beat too!

[@narr482]

I want to see this cast now!! They have such amazing energy

[@OhLookItsOscarPastry]

This cast is amazing, I hope they bring out a west end soundtrack!

[@beltingtokra]

I've never previously felt I wanted to see Hamilton. Until now 😱 They are so good, get me a ticket!!!

[@vincenthyde502]

Tell me about it!

[@chelseyjones7385]

Absolutely love this cast already, the vocals 🤩❤️😩

[@ArtjomsMind]

Okay, NOW I know I need another visit of Hamilton. Will book my tickets ... again.

[@emthomas1801]

any house of anubis fans. Alfie playing hamilton is wild

[@aamalpica]

This cast is Amazing, people that can see them live in a show are very very lucky.

[@chiyopipi5672]

Saw it yesterday they were amazing!!!

[@louisseragasa]

The highlight of our London trip was this! Just watched this last week and for a high school musical performer like me, this was a dream come true to be able to watch the real deal and in Victoria palace no less.❤

[@taezou]

i've never seen a more attractive cast in my life

[@LifewithFlorence_265]

I love this❤❤

[@IsaMutlib]

Elite performance. Just elite. of course not a scratch on the original haha but still.....wow!

[@ezrapotter4631]

7:08 I think the song is “My Shot”

[@april-s3u]

omg i went to the the exact same cast yesterday in the theatre lol

[@hande333]

Do you remember the name of the actor who played Thomas Jefferson?

[@Shelly-p9f]

Will the same cast play in November or this cast tour is over?

[@april-s3u]

idk

[@nviscallin3702]

​@@Shelly-p9f probably the same, some minor changes maybe. I saw them on the 5th sept and they were all there but burr/laurend were diff

[@Shelly-p9f]

@@nviscallin3702 Thanks a lot for the information! It’s very useful and important to me. I just bought the ticket yesterday, and gonna enjoy it in mid-October.

[@zoeyf]

Thought I recognised the actor of Hamilton here, turns out he was Alfie Lewis in house of anubis on Nickelodeon and was a massive part of my childhood.

[@PowderChan-qr4ru]

I can't get over the new Angelica actress she's so pretty ❤

[@EuniceNg78]

Way to go Nathania as Eliza

[@emilytolman46]

Amazing!!!

[@M_P5]

Saw this on a Thurs eve but I didn’t really feel the hype 😢 but after seeing this video, I realised that many of the casts were different (Angelica, Eliza, one of the rapper guys). Probably understudies as it was a weekday evening, and you can tell how it makes a difference.. this performance is 100% much better than what I saw this week. So if you’re gonna see this in West End, make sure to see it at the weekend!!

[@fannychelim1]

Brilliant !

[@KYRJAMESEY]

Love it!! only thing missing is King George

[@joaopacheco9777]

Now, this is representation!!!

[@TheTradge]

Ok I need Manny Burr in my life like yesterday! 🔥

[@EliseBoothChannel]

real ones know alex sawyer from house of anubis

[@zoeyf]

So true thought he looked familiar then it clicked

[@iemilyuvideo]

This performance is a tease and also now I'm going to HAVE to see this cast........

[@TuanNguyenHealthGenie]

WOW.

[@queenofspades2365]

Broooooo 😭 I haven't want to watch a Hamilton performance this bad since the one with the original cast. They all have crazy charisma it's insane.

[@Tr1sh4Lynn]

Also, the ensemble dancers are killing it!

[@mic47013]

The audience is so awesome they know the whole songs

[@alicemedlam]

OMG you all sound amazing I am so glad I could see you before next year!!

[@Claraiueoful]

oh gosh a real hamilton concert would be a fun concept! Because I want to sing along to every song but we can't do that in theatre.

[@mayanka6442]

Alex Sawyer!! We remember you from House of Anubis! Proud of you!

[@paulamoya2628]

i watch this to have breakfast everyday, best decision ive ever taken

[@chadmcjannett]

I hope Charles can hear it from Buckingham palace. Rise up Brits!!

[@YunaElphabaLovegood]

Fantastic job, incredible crowd, amazing energy. Loved it.

[@normairizarryni]

The absolute best thing about this is how the crowd it rapping/singing along. I love that!

[@katieroberts7012]

Is that Alfie from House of Anubis?!

[@mqrscc]

yes it is!😂

[@jesuisalex5649]

The live vocals are IMPECCABLE !

[@LiverpooltillIdie-b4h]

Samuel Sarpong-Broni

[@misskit123]

That actually made me quite emotional 🥹 They smashed it!!! (I haven't seen this show since before Covid. I need to change that!)

[@itzedenxx7030]

I SAW THEM LIVE IM OBSESSED WITH THEM

[@notnone00]

May I know who was casted Burr here? I can't find him in the current cast list.

[@Theralex]

Manaia Glassey-Ohlson. He's been doing Burr this summer and Laff/Jeff since the original Burr returned.

[@notnone00]

Thank you​@@Theralex

[@DragonPrincessAoife]

This Angelica is absolutely enchanting.

[@shiho.e4888]
