I’ve seen Hamilton 3 times on Broadway (once with the original Cast). I love it, and see or hear something new each time. That said...it’s a Broadway show, meaning sing and dance to live music. If you like that sort of thing, you will enjoy Hamilton. If, however, you need to be convinced, you may not enjoy the show.
Nope... The fact you are asking this question indicates you are not comfortable. That’s all you need to know.
There have been a lot of comments about the ushers...all good souls, but none have signed up to watch your child. In all honesty I’m sure she would be fine, but do you want to answer the news media’s questions about why such a youngster (not even a teenager) was left alone for 3 hours if there was some problem. I wouldn’t!
The easy answer is the cancellation line is not AS crazy as in the past. I’ve seen Hamilton twice, both times using the cancellation line. Most recently (2-14-18) I was walking past and the cop that controls that block herd us talking about the show. He said “tonight’s the night...short line.” Forty Five minutes later, just before the curtain, we were ushered to our seats (Center orchestra, Row F, on the aisle). The cost $219 each.
Stub Hub and Ticketmaster tickets will be available, at roughly the same price as today, up until the week of/ day of the performance. The Richard Rogers theater is actually small (1300-ish seats), so there really isn’t a bad seat...especially in the Orchestra...even on the far sides.
I was very fortunate on a Valentines Day, a sorta holiday like Halloween. We were walking past the theater and I was telling my boyfriend how I previously got tickets in the cancellation

My experience (from about 5-6 years ago) is they are tough but reasonable. I was stuck an hour from NYC because of a big snow. I called the day of the show and they let me change tickets. When the new day arrived...another major storm was predicted so I called the day before and asked about getting tickets for that night (the storm was going to hit the next day). The box office agreed. But... it wasn’t a super popular show, so they had a good supply of tickets.

I’ve been very lucky with the cancellation line. I tried 3 times and have been successful twice (row E center orchestra for $219 on Valentines night). Broadway in general slows down in S
I saw the show two weeks ago. All of the stars (Lindsey, Jesse, Renee, Josh etc...) were truly amazing. I could have sat in my seat all night if the individuals would have continued. The dancing was great, but the voices were showstoppers!
The show itself, however, is an odd story. It’s too bad the second act didn’t work as well as the first, but it’s a tough show.
The individual performances were wonderful. It’s not likely this much “Broa
Try Becco on 46th between 8th and 9th. They have an amazing $25 homemade pasta special (all you can eat), and $30 bottles of wine. The food is great, so is the service, but you will need to reserve about a month in advance as it’s very popular.
Was on the way to dinner with my Valentine last night (2-14-201 and slowed down as we were walking past Hamilton. A NYPD officer noticed us slow and said “really short cancellation line (4), tonight’s your night if you are interested.” It was about 6:45, so we canceled our 7PM dinner reservation.
About 7:30 someone from the box office came out and took the first person on
Just WOW! Every year I take my nieces to a Broadway show. This year we saw Miss Saigon (really great production BTW). While I knew the Flea Market existed, I didn't realize it was Sunday until I accidentally bumped into it. I ended up spending a few hours! What a great weekend!

We're doing both - the Milos PF Theater menu doesn't look enormous, and afterwards we're sort of looking forward to doing Shake Shack for a burger and shake :)
Following a Saturday Matinee a few weeks ago, outside the stage door, a large group of young women sang many selections from the show. That said, I don't recall anyone singing in the audience.

Absofreakinloutely! For my birthday weekend, I did just that. Became a tourist in my native NY. Left the house at 7am and hit "Kings College" (Columbia University) to see the statue at Hamilton Hall. Went to Hamilton Grange, Jumel-Morris Mansion (last day before room restorations), then went to Weehawken to see the Hamilton-Burr
