In one coment, I read interesting observation: "Why do you write like you need it to survive?" - because, and not that long ago, he did. Remember, it was his writing that made the others to "set up a collection just to send him to the mainland". Without it, he would probably not survived, given what happened to him (being extremely poor, his mother dying, his cousin commiting suicide, not to mention the hurricane).
Writing is his salvation, as portrayed in "Hurricane" and I deeply relate, you can write anything for as long as you want to express what you couldn't speak out loud. If people read it, it's easier to make them listen- specially if you're owning up a mistake. You put a lot of thought into your sentences, painting a whole picture of what you have in your head into words and other people will read and see that picture. It's quite weird... there's also endless of things to think about, and it will hurt more to be criticised in that matter.
Yesss writing is his livelihood, it exemplifies everything and the most important things he ever did, he got through his whole life because of his “skill with the quill”. he does need writing to survive, and he knows that, because writhing got him through his life, because that was the only thing he knew, so during his mid life crisis with the Reynolds pamphlet, he turned to writing his way out, as he always had
Not sure if anyone noticed but as Hamilton is putting on his green suit jacket after learning of John Lauren’s death, you see Lin Manuel wipe his eyes right before they start Non-Stop. The movie was filmed on June 26, 27 and 28 2016. However, July 9 was the last performance for four cast members; creator and star Lin-Manuel Miranda (Alexander Hamilton), Leslie Odom, Jr. (Aaron Burr), Phillipa Soo (Eliza Hamilton) and Ariana DeBose (Ensemble / The Bullet) at the Richard Rodgers Theatre. Lin’s tears were real throughout all of the filming because he knew this was some of his last performances with his friend / cast. 😢
Don't know if someone had posted this before, but Leslie said that after he sang his part and Lin began his part, he bowed his head and said a prayer for his, then, unborn child.
Something I only recently noticed. Hamilton finally having his own colored attire instead of his plain white or brown is probably meant to signify how at this point in his life he's already cemented his legacy. He can very easily stop striving to be more at this point and be remembered like he wants, but just like Angelica tells us, he'll never be satisfied. He's a textbook example of someone who lived so long believing he's less than what he is that he can't truly see when he's proven that belief wrong. Even when he finally rises above it all and cements himself into history, it's still not enough. He still feels like a guy that has nothing deep down, and until that part of him is satisfied he'll never stop striving to be more.
The colors of the outfits are significant, but not in the way you thought. Hamilton is wearing green at this point because he is always working towards earning money/status while Burr is in a shade of purple because he is working towards having power (think of royalty wearing purple). I’m not sure if the others outfits colors are significant, but I heard this part in a “making of” clip somewhere.
he hadn't done anything that warrented him getting on the $10 bill by this point. Hamilton's legacy was the financial system he created. he was no where close to cementing his legacy by this point in his life
A very important, but very easy to miss detail in here: Eliza started out with "that would be enough," referring to the simple joy of living together, a family in love and nothing more or less. Partway through Non-Stop, she asks if she could even have a fraction of his time and love, "WOULD that be enough?" As he decides to go work with Washington and leave his family to help build their country, she wonders, "WHAT would be enough?" She's begging for even the smallest fraction of his attention and love, but she's finally coming to realize what her sister did: he's never going to be satisfied.
The lovely narrative that Lin had a son and Leslie was due to have a girl too. It's also thought that Laurens and Hamilton were more than just friends. It would also explain why his grief threw him into his work
My recommendation for compiling Act 2 videos would be: 1."What'd I Miss", "Cabinet Battle #1" 2."Take A Break", "Say No To This" 3."The Room Where It Happens", "Schuyler Defeated", "Cabinet Battle #2" 4."Washington On Your Side", "One Last Time" 5."I Know Him", "The Adams Administration", "We Know" 6."Hurricane", "The Reynolds Pamphlet", "Burn" 7."Blow Us All Away", "Stay Alive (Reprise)", "It's Quiet Uptown" 8."Election of 1800", "Your Obedient Servant", "Best of Wives and Best of Women" 9. "The World Was Wide Enough", "Who Lives, Who Dies, Who Tells Your Story"
I highly recommend checking it out live when you get another opportunity. There’s NOTHING like this show live! The energy, the set, the music, it all blends into an incredible experience! And Aaron Burr (Leslie Odom Jr.) does have the voice of an angel…I could listen to him all day too! Can’t wait for more!!!! 💛xo
Another Great Reaction. Just wanted to remind you that in Act Two dual casting will occur for 4 of our actors on stage Daveed Diggs will be Thomas Jefferson instead of Marquis De Lafayette. Okieriete Onaowdwan will be James Madison instead of Hercules Mulligan Anthony Ramos will be Philip Hamilton instead of John Laurens. And Jasmine Cephas Jones will be Maria Reynolds instead of “and” Peggy The good thing is that they will deliberately change Hairstyles, accents, cadences etc. between the dual characters. That way the audience can more easily recognize that the actor is playing a brand new character in that moment. I may be corny as ever, but I still propose the term “duel casting” be used for this show.
omg idk how i missed this upload but ooh i was really excited for it! nonstop is definitely in my top 3 songs from the musical also! I'm really glad you didn't skip lauren's interlude. i think it's really important context for nonstop. why does hamilton write like he's running out of time? he's thrown himself into his work, probably both to distract himself from the loss of his friend, but also because the death of laurens has once again reminded him that he could die at any time and he has to work harder to secure his legacy.
@@ayannaliwilliams9992 the funny thing is, knowing how unwilling Alexander would be for sharing the credit in just one paper, he would eventually do the most of it lol
Omg!! I don't know why I don't watched this video till now, and I'm always waiting for more Hamilton. Dear Theodosia is so beautiful, the first time that I heard it, I don't like it so much, because is not my type of music (slow), but now I love it, sometimes I cry while I listen to it. Non-Stop is just WOW! All the leitmotiv in this song, just blow my mind, is so magnificent. Now is coming the Act 2, I'll be waiting!
2:55 sad thing was that both of them fulfilled this wish, considering they both outlived their children (though Hamilton did have another 7 after Phillip that he wasn't able to be with)
So since it seems you’ve already watched the whole musical, I’d recommend, after posting the rest, that you react to congratulations. It was cut from the musical for time reasons so there’s not a high quality recording for it, but it’s great. It takes place after the Reynolds’s pamphlet and before Burn, sung by Angelica. There are some great animatics for it.
Don't know if it was said but Burr's daughter died at sea due to a hurricane and Hamilton's son was killed in a duel, so both children were essentially "blown away"...
Really enjoying your journey through this! Glad I'm coming back to your reactions. I can tell you'll be one of those who enjoys re-watching this masterpiece.
i think like the only change i would personally like in this show is to have a very (like 2 secs) fade between 'I have so much work to do' and the start of Non Stop, just like, a beat, to process that bit of emotion. As it is now its SUCH a fucking mood whiplash, its like 'laurens is dead lol ok' as soon as the song starts
I know this is quite an old video but I enjoy your reactions to this musical very much; you're very insightful and the way you are honestly blown away (as so many of us were and are) really makes the viewer feel connected to you and not just your experience. And, since I'm a huge nerd and nobody's commented on this yet: Christopher Jackson when he sings "I'm asking you be to be my right hand man" actually almost attaches 'man' to the next phrase so it is almost like him saying "I'm asking you to be my right hand; Man, I know it's a lot to ask' which makes me feel like he and Washington are so close that it's no longer a commander/subordinate relationship (and we see where that feeling takes Hamilton in the second act).
I did the calculations for how many essays Hamilton would have to do at least every day to make the 6 months. He would have to write 8 of them a day. I could barely do one under one month.
@@eatmypanart They probably calculated the total for months rather than days. 6*8=48, just shy of 51. So it'd be around 8 per month, 2-ish per week. Still an impressive total, but yeah those calculations aren't accurate.
Aw I loved watching you react to this, I could see the admiration in your eyes, they really are amazing and next time they come around to you definitely find a way to watch it!
There’s a lot of brilliant staging moments in this Act 1 closer. As Hamilton goes up the stairs at the end, Burr is still at the bottom, waiting as he watches Hamilton literally quickly ascends up to Washington’s side, while still saying “Just you wait.”
LMM said the obvious choice would have been to end act 2 w/ The Battle of Yorktown, but didn't want to. He deliberately included Dear Theodosia and Non-Stop in the first act as a way of saying, yep, war's over, US won, just wait til you see what happens next! Someone asked him if he was thinking about his own son when writing Dear Theodosia, and he said no, he was thinking about his dog (cause his children hadn't been born yet 😂😂😂). It took 7 or 8 years to get this play written and produced (I know he performed Alexander Hamilton in 2008 before President and Mrs. Obama, and the play finally was performed off Broadway in 2015). A lot of work (and years) went into the final production. In Ron Chernow's book (that this is based on) there are indications in letters between Hamilton and Laurens that they were more than "just friends", which is why we get the info that Laurens died and he's onstage when Hamilton gets the news (but nothing about Hercules Mulligan, and only a brief bit about Lafayette in act 2). Leslie Odom is an absolutely gorgeous singer. I have his Christmas album - 2 thumbs way up! The tour is coming back to my area in a few months, but even crap seats are $400, so I'll just keep watching my bootleg (I'm not too keen on the Disney version, cause they keep doing weird camera angles, and zooming in on actors, so you don't see what's happening on the whole stage, and that's annoying).
Fun fact - the Constitution is supposed to be updated every fifty years or so, that was one of Jefferson's (I could be wrong on the FF) requests when he wrote it, that it be continuously ratified and updated every fifty years to grow and change with our growing nation. Sadly, however, it has not been updated like Jefferson wanted; it's had amendments added, every so often, but not like our FFs hoped. I think this is the song I identify with the most. Having an incurable disease- in my case- can make you realise your own mortality, in a way. Even if you *don't* suffer from a disease or sickness, I think there's just *some* people who *know* their time is running out, and so they're driven to continuously go, go, go and make an impact before their time comes up. Hamilton, to me, seems like one of them. I think something deep in him knew he wouldn't live long, which is probably part of the reason why he wrote so much, and continued to do what he did, like with Congress and the national treasury, etc. When you feel like you're running out of time, you almost have this... continuous, nagging little voice in your brain driving you on. I speak from experience; I'm constantly writing, and at times, it feels like if I stop, I fear I'll never pick up a pen or open a word document again. I think Hamilton was the same way - and if you look at history, well, he died at 47. He wasn't very old, and he died in one of the - if not the- most historic duels in American history. He did so much, in such a short time (between 1775 and around 1800, so roughly 25 years) that it makes sense, at least to me, that he felt he would need to do so much. Especially given that he spent 7 years either as Washington's aide-de-camp or in the battlefield during the revolution. Those were the years where he probably felt most like he could die at any moment, which probably just made his realisation that the 'clock' was ticking even more apparent. I could be entirely wrong, but that's just my observation.
Have we not noticed that when John L died this man took a deep dive down the rabbit hole. Like yeah I might have had a few tweaks in the beginning but when Lawrence died it’s like something clicked in him. Cause remember Lawrence died before he could live out his dream and I think that flipped a switch in Hamilton which then slowly made him spiral cause in the end of Dear Theodosia when she asked him was he ok instead of saying anything y’all see how he just immediately smothered himself in work that man’s death triggered something fasho
Leslie Odom Jr actually breaks the fifth wall or whatever it’s called in Non-Stop. Pay attention to when he sits down but turns to face the audience as he says “he’s just non-stop” he smiles at them…..that to me, is Leslie coming through not Aaron Burr.

@@jelalejanaabubakar7860 that’s why Jefferson said that he’s a threat as long as he can hold a pen. Because that’s his power

the movie was cutting between 2 shows and the closeup shots were without a audience, so chances are probably not.

Lin actually wrote this about his dog since his sons weren't born yet. Still lovely tho
I get overwhelmed listening to Nonstop as well. It always gives me chills and makes me cry.
My recommendation for compiling Act 2 videos would be:
1."What'd I Miss", "Cabinet Battle #1"
2."Take A Break", "Say No To This"
3."The Room Where It Happens", "Schuyler Defeated", "Cabinet Battle #2"
4."Washington On Your Side", "One Last Time"
5."I Know Him", "The Adams Administration", "We Know"
6."Hurricane", "The Reynolds Pamphlet", "Burn"
7."Blow Us All Away", "Stay Alive (Reprise)", "It's Quiet Uptown"
8."Election of 1800", "Your Obedient Servant", "Best of Wives and Best of Women"
9. "The World Was Wide Enough", "Who Lives, Who Dies, Who Tells Your Story"
This is how i would group it up as well!
Agreed!!
I agree with these groupings, they flow beautifully. Can't wait to watch!!
Take a break is actually one of my fav songs
Been waiting for this one to make it up! So much energy and emotion. Looking forward to the Act 2 videos!

Just to clarify for you, you mean John Laurens, not Lawrence. It's pronounced about the same but Laurens was his last name.
The fact that he didn’t laugh when Hamilton threw it back kinda makes me mad
