Hamilton | West End LIVE 2024

[@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

[@recoveryisreal]

I'm a bit late to respond, but in case you want to know how INCREDIBLE this cast is, I saw it a couple of weeks ago. Not sure what was going- either people sick or all on leave, out of the whole cast, there were two understudies, three standbys and three swings. This included Alexander, Eliza, Washington, Mulligan/Madison, and Laurens/Philip. It was also the debut of Jordan Benjamin as Hamilton (usually Laurens/Philip). So basically, not your regular performance at all, and I'm pretty sure the never would have rehearsed this combination... And holy crap. They didn't miss a beat. Sure, they're West End professionals, but that's impressive as hell. I've seen a lot of shows over the years (in Australia mainly, but licensed productions), and Hamilton is honestly one of, if not the best show I've ever seen.

[@C33sworld]

i think this peggy is a cover as well!

[@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.

[@stockwellsantley6606]

And the guy in the audience doing the Schuyler sisters' choreography!

[@thacafong]

@@stockwellsantley6606 i loved his vibe!!!!!

[@OnesSystem]

This was the first thing I thought.

[@React2This]

True! They have to actively discourage theater audiences from singing along, because it’s a more intimate experience and nobody wants to be seated beside the person who sings along. But in this environment, it feels like a festival and the actors are able to interact with the fans.

[@narr482]

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

[@cooliohoolio30]

😭😭😭✋

[@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.

[@tomascaro5224]

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

[@narr482]

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

[@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!

[@nikap18]

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

[@SunyiSideUp]

I love her performance! She really owned it!

[@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

[@keyblademasterclark]

Just goes to show that all these years later Hamilton is still a masterpiece. Plus, the show's style kinda lends itself to a kind of concert format

[@thomasscottwilliams6672]

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

The joy you see in the faces of this cast, and their audience interaction, says so much about Lin’s work. When he played the title role, he always seemed amazed at where he was, at what he had brought to life.

[@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

[@cameronclarkhull]

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

[@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.

[@jkecollns]

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.

[@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.❤

[@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.

[@PatrickKCompton]

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

[@ianirvinagner308]

Dang this crowd knows how to sing!

[@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 ❤

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. ❤

two weeks ago, I saw the Broadway cast and left in the middle of it due to their poor performance. (And I have seen it several times) But this cast is FANTASTIC!!! So much energy and connection. You should be on Broadway. I think I will take a trip across the pond. Excellent and Bravo!

[@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.

[@NuunMoon]

they are literally insane

[@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!!
