Reviving my Hamilton obsession
I got to revive my Hamilton obsession this month, when I got to see it on the stage in Melbourne.
In high school, I was obsessed with Hamilton. The intelligent lyrics, the catchy music, the talented cast and crew... what's not to love? But of course, nothing beats seeing a show in person. I will always leave a musical feeling incredibly happy, so when I finally got to see the show that I was obsessed with when I was 16, it was a big deal! Sitting in the audience, I felt emotional as soon as the play began. It was incredible to finally be getting to witness a show that I had dreamed of for years. Of course, my limited funds meant that I was seated right at the back; but I didn't care, it was still an amazing experience.
It is hard now to meet someone who doesn't know Hamilton, but if you're one of those who haven't, I would definitely recommend. And even more so, if you get the chance to purchase tickets to see it live in Melbourne, it is worth it! The Australian cast bring their own flair and wit to the production, with their own interpretation to Lin-Manuel Miranda's iconic play.
My Hamilton obsession is definitely alive and kicking. Years on, it still brings me so much joy, so I am going to continue listening to the soundtrack whenever I need a mood boost!
