Broadway is Cool Again!!!

I got to see Hamilton last year in Chicago! It was fantastic. The guy playing the lead role was pretty bland though, oddly enough.

It wasn't Lin?

It wasn't Lin?

We saw it in Chicago, the original is in New York. Plus, I think Lin had already left by then.

Who was the actor then?

Who was the actor then?

I honestly couldn't tell you.

EDIT: Oh, just looked it up. It's some guy named Miguel Cervantes.

Thank you.

I've only got to see a handful of Broadway shows, but man...!

Cats, Avenue Q, and this summer Margaritaville.

I told the Cats story before.
Our high school Lit teacher took a few of us into Manhattan to see a show. We wanted to see "Little Shop of Horrors", but it was sold out. We had to settle for Cats.
Little did I know how blown away I would be. Plus getting to meet a few cast members.
Rum Tum Tugger, Jenny Anydots, and Mr. Mistoffolees.
And when Old Deuteronomy came out, you thought you'd get stampeded.
That was 1984, and I'll never forget, on top of the singing and dancing, the makeup and costumes were off the charts.

1984

Did anyone not pass up on the perfect opportunity to turn Orwell into an epic show?

We just had to settle for Van Halen's last album before they became Van Hagar.

Girl.... You really got me now...

You got me so I don't know what I'm doing....

Oh?:

They're using a song about a founding father's affair as a baby's lullaby.
