Oh geez, is she not good in it? Or are you being facetious? :) I haven't read reviews of her performances, but I'm an In The Heights fan."
Mandy gives a very polarizing performance. I don&#

There are also actors where it's hard to rank because they're stronger in one Act over another. For example, Thayne's Laurens was nothing spectacular but I found his Phillip to be one of my favorites. Chappelle, while not "

Anthony Lee Medina Anthony Ramos Jordan Fisher Andrew Chappelle Ruben Carbajal
* Fisher was a mixed bag when I saw him. There were moments when he was breathtaking, and there were moments where he was, basically, mugging to the audience for laughs rather than playing

Interesting you say this about Carvens. I thought he was wonderful the 2 times I saw him in DC. The 3rd time I saw it, he had already left this production and the new Washington was on.

I wasn't trying to say that he was bad, I thought he was fine at first, but he's made some major improvements that made me appreciate him a lot
Rainah said: "Any reports on the current bway cast?"
Michael Luwoye is amazing, I can't praise him enough. During Yorktown he becomes so invested in his monologue that I actually started tearing up a little, lol.
Denee brings such a beautiful sweetness and maturity in the role that I have not seen since Phillipa.
Daniel Beaker is good, he just took some time getting use to.
So according to their Instagrams, Ashley Park is on vacation and Tee is on for Gretchen tonight. I'm surprise they didn't put in Rosa or Devon (she covers Gretchen, right?) considering what a night Tee had yesterday.
Has anyone seen Dorcas Leung as Eliza? I saw her as Angelica (amazing Satisfied) and my friend saw her as Peggy/Maria (she said she was great) so I'm very curious about her portrayal of Eliza. I noticed that her voice is a lot higher than say, Goldsberry's or Olivio's.
SchuylWERKsister said: "Im hearing that Ariana DeBose is going into Hamilton as a lead after Summer closes. Likely on Broadway. My guess would be Angelica since Joanna is on leave and due to return as Peggy/Maria."
Mister Matt said: "The fact is, once you get beyond paying the $30,000 price tag, you have to push and sell yourself to get in there. IMO it’s a total ego-driven thing. Furthermore, I have read that to be considered you also have to have some fame that has endured for at least 5 years. He barely, if at all, meets that criteria. I know there was In the Heights, but that was not what made him a household name.

A bunch of the younger kids in my high school are huge fans of it and I don't get it at all. The music is okay but the plot is really poorly written and the female characters are really annoying. Also, I hate how people act like it's "G

That's sort of how I felt about this:
Lin Manuel Miranda needs to just stop. HAMILTONn is a decent piece of theatre but it definitely isn't the game changer that people claim it to be. His sudden Hollywood fame and appearance EVERYWHERE really is grating on me. His accent in MARY POPPINS RETURNS turns what co
The obc of Hamilton, while mostly good, isn't perfect. I never got the hype over Anthony Ramos (his Phillip is cute but his Laurens sounds seriously out of breath) and even my middle aged mother with literally no experience with musical theater says that Lin can't sing or rap.
"Revenge Party" is the worst song in the Mean Girls soundtrack. Grey Henson is funny in it but the rest of the song is pretty basic. Also it REALLY shows how bad some of the lyrics are ("It's a revenge party, a party with revenge is what it's like".... seriously?).
DottieD'Luscia said: "Oh wow, good for him. He wasn't on the website when I checked earlier today."
The website is pretty untrustworthy. The last time I saw the Angelica tour it said Chris Lee was still Lafayette / Jefferson when it was really Bryson Bruce.
