I'm not sure I remember how to do this. LOL.<br /><br />@Michael G-G: Thanks! Yeah it was an interesting thing to go through.<br /><br />@Andrew Leon: I'm perfectly willing to admit it's subjective.

We've been fully submerged in Hamilton since not long after its debut and finally saw it on stage in SF last year. In short, I love Hamilton (despite the fact that hip hop is not really my genre).<br /><br />I don't think I agree with you about the sexism, though I do see your points. <br /><br />Mostly, though, I think the entire show can be summed up in one line from the play: Immigrants. We get the job done.<br />And I think that's an extremely important message for our time and, more so, because it was written -before- 45 happened. Hamilton is not a reaction to what is happening now but a harbinger of it.Andrew Leonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13964775673414653644noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5345890055658252124.post-87046813426504391592020-07-06T13:16:19.654-04:002020-07-06T13:16:19.654-04:00Great review.
