I saw Hamilton last week. Obviously the replacement cast, as I didn't see the original. I cannot imagine how amazing the original may have been because honestly, I couldn't imagine anyone other than who we saw do this performance. It was better than people said, if that's even possible with all of the hype that surrounds his show.

I've come to accept that whatever you say, neon will respond and criticize part of whatever you say, even if (s)he agrees with you overall, as a way to try to one-up you. It's becoming a pattern in these Hamilton posts.

Disagree that the show's the star. If you are on the payroll of the show, could see having that perspective.
I have seen the show with the OBC and post-OBC departures. I kept comparing Seth Stewart's performance to Daveed's performance. I preferred Daveed in the role. People who never saw the OBC and particularly Daveed's performance won't know any better. No point of reference for the role.
Loved BVD, Javier, Lexi and Mandy Gonzalez. She is fantastic.
Looking forward to the PBS doc later this. Onto. That should be quite interesting.

So you think the show isn't the star...but Daveed is?

I actually let out a gasp with this news. Nobody will ever be Chris Jackson in this role, though I'm super happy for Nicholas Christopher! I wonder who'll take over when Nick leaves for Miss Saigon.

Nick Christopher is having a stage actor's dream of a week. And so so so deserved.

Posted: 10/14/16 at 1:51pmI liked Nicholas as much as Chris in the role to be honest so am happy about this.

@neonlightsxo: agreed! at only 26 years old, Nick has achieved more than others in their lifetime, so happy for him.

Agreed, Fisher was one of the best parts of Grease Live. Spot on casting once again. Keep it going Ham team!

Agreed, Minerva and neon. They're definitely making up for the Burr/Laf/Jef fiasco this summer ![]()

Excellent! Jordan was great in Grease and to make his Bway debut in a very popular shows that's hard to get into, wow!

Very nice casting. He was great on Grease.
So, only Oak and Jasmine would be left from the original principal cast (plus Javi) with Carleigh, Neil, Thayne, Seth, Andrew, Morgan, and Voltaire in the ensemble/swing world.
I don't have tickets again until March so I'll be interested to see all the new cast members by then.

Aww. He's so good. Wonder who his replacement will be.
Looks like Jasmine will be the last OG left (unless she also leaves Dec. 24)!

We're seeing it T-day weekend. Hoping for Javy as we haven't seen him yet in 3 tries.
