If only our founding was as colorful as this play makes it seem.
.
If only.
God, could you even imagine how much smoother everything would run, and how much kinder of a nation we would be if the founding fathers and mothers of this nation looked like the cast of Hamilton?
First and black wouldn't need to wait over 80, 000 days, over 2600 months, or almost 220 years, to be used to describe one of our leaders.
Black parents would never dread the day their child drops the question and they need to have the hardest talk of their lives.
This nation of immigrants would never make that word a slur, a shame, and a divisive issue.
We probably wouldn't still be granting normal rights to particular groups 240+ years later after treating them poorly for that entire duration.
America would look the way it does in photographs and tv, and feel the way it is described in songs. It wouldn't be a mask. It wouldn't be a lie.
It would be pretty great, huh?
If only.

Another fun fact about You'll Be Back. The phrase you'll be back came from the time he was on his honeymoon, and he was inspired while he was speaking to TV's HOUSE star Hugh Laurie. Hugh was the one who heard the concept of the song, chuckled, wagged his finger, and said; He'll be back, and that inspired the song for Lin Manuel.

Okay can I ask maybe a dumb question? Just because Hamilton is really the first musical Ive ever gotten into. Do most or all musicals start off Broadway and then get picked up after gaining momentum? Or how does that work?

It actually sounds like Wait For It was written on a subway: it has the same beat as train tracks. I don't read music so I can't tell u that using in technical terms but listen to it & see( or in this case hear )what I mean.

Honestly, I'm glad Laurens Interlude isn't on the cast album. If that part were to come on Spotify, I would cry for hours, so really, thank you for not putting me through anguish.

#4 doesn't seem amazing when you're a writer yourself. It's almost like of course he wrote it on the train. What was he supposed to just let it slip out of his mind?
