It tells the story of his life across 2 acts where the songs are a blend of hip-hop, R&B, Pop, Soul & musical theatre. Have you been to see this universally acclaimed stage show? Does it live up to the hype? Are you wanting to see it? Have you listened to the soundtrack?

But tickets are so, SO hard to get. The songs are amazing. Such a unique take on the traditional musical theatre songs. 'It's Quiet Uptown' is beautifully TRAGIC. I am NOT ready to witness that live

I'm so impressed it managed to live up to the hype I had! It's always nice getting an idea of historic events you have little-no idea about. Renée Elise Goldsberry and Leslie Odom Jr are outstanding in particular!

It really is an epic and a take on musical theatre I've not seen before which really freshened up the story telling. I loved the revolving stage and I really enjoyed the use of the background dancers to add to the picture whilst not being too distracting. It was a bit overly long for me at two and half hours but it was great to learn about some American history and to see so many POC taking lead roles and so many songs come from a hip-hop background was great to see! The rap battles in particular were brilliant! Jonathan Groff kinda stole the show whenever he appeared

Such a great musical, I may be wrapped up in the moment just now but I think it may be the best one I've ever seen

George III was especially hilarious, I can relate.

I found the love, I found the love in me Pronouns: He/Him Joined: 13 December 2007 Posts: 87,433 User: 5,042	I finally got around to seeing this last year (Went in March, the show got stopped halfway through due to casting issues and someone injuring themselves but re-booked for August) and it's just as fantastic actually seeing it presented on stage! I'm going again this year in May and I really cannot wait! Probably my favourite show.
