Holy shit. I can't stop watching, you guys. I'm so glad I didn't discover this until after work otherwise I really wouldn't have done shit all afternoon.

Between these clips and the Ryan Lochte nonsense, my day was a complete waste.

I am shocked those are still up! Quiet uptown just killed me. Also the cheer when CJ walks on as Washington in right hand man, love it.

OMGOMGOMG

Yes! And next week is supposed to be Kristen Chenowith. And at the end, they all sing their favorite songs from the musical. It was great.

I just listened to this, thanks for the Rec. It was great!

Um, have y'all been checking on the YouTube account cbwm1 posted earlier? ALL of Hamilton has been uploaded, including "Tomorrow There Will Be More of Us". The sound quality is utter crap but it's awesome being able to see how things are staged. I loved seeing the transition in "Satisfied" and DS is thrilled to see all his favorite songs. He's been dancing around to "The Reynolds Pamphlet" like a madman all morning. Watch it now before it all disappears.

Yeah, we finished watching it all this morning.

The sound is absolute crap, but seeing it has really cast the cast recording in a different light. <3

OMG THIS IS AMAZING!

I don't want to spoil it, bc the staging is always a big reveal. But it's so cool to see!

I feel like seeing everything now will make the performance we see even more enjoyable because I won't be trying to look at everything going on on stage. Idk. That might just be me, though.

[cinderbella]

Well that was the best hour of my morning. Seriously. What'd I Miss was everything I hope it would be...... I am in love with Daveed.

Was there a new Who Lives, Who Dies? I'm only seeing the one in black and white with Spanish subtitles.

I'm with you! While I want to watch, I'm also not wanting to spoil it when I see it live!!

This is truly my reason for watching the videos. I have poor eyesight and it's not easy for me to pick up on everything, especially facial features at a distance. And I don't know if I'll even manage to get tickets to see it in person!

I totally just bought this.

I liked seeing how washington on your side is staged.

I'm seriously shocked these are still up. Guess they've calmed down a bit on videos online.

Random thought --- Typically, the season at our theater runs from fall to mid-summer. This upcoming season, however, Hamilton runs well into the fall/early winter of next year. It's effectively running halfway into what should be the 2017-2018 season. It makes me wonder if they're setting it up to have a super extended run like Wicked did in the early 2000s. I think that ended up running uninterrupted for 2 or 3 seasons straight.

I would bet most of the cities running Hamilton will expect it to run for a while! :-P

I watched a lot, but not all of those videos. And they're now gone.

on tumblr, I saw a fan of LMM refer to herself as a "linnamon roll." is this a thing that anyone else is aware of?

Apparently, when something is too sweet and precious for this world, the kids call it a cinnamon roll.

So, cinnamon morphs into linnamon? Idk. I can keep up with the damn kids these days.

I keep seeing people refer to Philippa soo as a cinnamon roll for this reason.

I was thinking of the discussions of how things might be different because it seems like Lin wrote some of parts knowing he had LOJ...but LOJ wasn't the original Burr. I have no idea why I came here to say this, but I would have loved to see Utkarsh Ambudkar as Aaron Burr. All I can think of is him as Donald in Pitch Perfect so I'd be interested to see his take on it.

Technically. I wonder how much changed between the original writing and what appeared Off Broadway.

I stole this info from Wikipedia.

What? That is awesome! I would have loved to see his take on Burr also! 

I'm really looking forward to seeing Brandon Dixon.I'm pretty sure he's going to be just as awesome as LOJ!!!!

Donald!! I've been scouring the Internet for any recording of him as burr but I've come up empty.
