I literally ignored the Broadway play, Hamilton, when it hit London 19 months ago.
I had a clue about what this Hip Hop Opera would be like and the blend of US History into a Rap musical with its reputation of selling out at £100 a ticket every night was very intriguing.
Could it really be that good?
Best Birthday present EVER
From the opening curtain, I was captivated by the songs, the set, the laughs, the costumes, the romantic bits and the tragedy. By the 46th song, my hands were swollen from clapping so hard. Sheer musical genius and a brilliant London Theatre night out. The USA history sent me back to my times living in Washington DC, I honestly didn’t see myself being back in Europe but it just wasn’t meant to be. If you can’t make it in DC during the Obama Years then it’s time just to be a tourist.
Completing Hamilton in Co-op mode was a high-end pleasure so now I treat myself by re-living the night with the soundtrack. At the same time, I solo killed my final Hunter for The Division Phoenix Shield. Took multiple 1-hour attempts and then I finally cornered the bastard thanks to the Global Event modifier and a crafted Custom M44 rifle with a 12x scope.
