Question about Hamilton for those who have seen it (SPOILERS) — Page 2

Hellob said: "Chitown - I agree. Jackson and Hercules/madison (can't spell real name) were who I focused on 2nd time. After first viewing, I felt like LMM screwed his good friend by giving him a boring part compared to Odom/Diggs but on second viewing I realized the fact that he can remain low key is more powerful than I thought. It shows what a good actor he is bc many would hate that and be tempted to ham it up for attention. He doesn't. Also, I think his entry song is in the top 3-5 of the show.

Yeah I think Jackson is the perfect Washington and he wouldn't be right for any other roles. I can't spell Mulligan/Madison's name either but he goes by Oak on Twitter. I love the scene when he comes busting out from the back as the spy. He really has the most dramatic contrast between his two characters as well.

First of all, fantastic work there (and oh, love the search terms)!  Ah, that makes sense that Rockwell would be there since he has a play opening soon (I was thinking of flying back to NYC to see it, Fool For Love--he and Nina are supposed to be great!).  I don't really know Bibb's work, but I love Sam--he's great in Moon, Box of Moonlight, Matchstick Men, and The Way Way Back.  Great actor.

I heard that Lupita Nyong'o was at a weekend performance but I'm thinking she wasn't at ours?

Yes, I cannot stop thinking about Hamilton.  What an achievement.  If I lived in NYC, I'd be catching it all the time.  : )

FFL was great at Williamstown.  Pretty short, though.  You could see it twice, back to back and still have time to get over for the last part of Hamilton.
