Vince and I went to go see Hamilton tonight. I have been looking forward to this for months! It is definitely the hottest ticket in town right now. This musical has been selling out everywhere, so we are lucky to be able to go to it! Pre-concert we Ubered down to Tempe to have dinner at PFChangs. Most of the people in there were all concert-goers as well. Not too many nicer choices for dinner down on Mill St, so Changs was packed. After dinner we took a little rickshaw thing down to the theater - save the feet from the walk! :)
Hamilton was probably the BEST musical I have ever seen. I say that about most plays/musicals I see though because I love them all. Wicked is a close 2nd, or possible tie. Hamilton though was incredible & I highly recommend it! The music was awesome - hip-hop, rap, soul. The story itself was so cool - makes me want to read the book! You cannot miss a beat on this one though. You have to follow along with Every. Single. Word! We both committed to going to see it again for sure.
We went to see it at ASU Gammage. On Thurs nights, after the show, some of the cast comes back out into the theater to interact and answer questions from the audience. You have to know this happens though - kinda an inside secret for play-goers. I found out thru a blog post I read so we decided to hang out after the show and wait to see what happens. We headed down the the lower section in front of the stage & sure enough, about 20mins later, a few cast members came out and just sat there and interacted with the crowd that stayed. Its an awesome thing they do there at Gammage!!
