AIBU to tell you to sell everything you own and buy Hamilton tickets?

[LyraPotter]

Saw the matinee this afternoon and honestly think it was the si god greatest cultural experience of my entire life and now all I want to do is talk about it forever

Are you the stage sets good.

I was let down by Chicago non existant one.

Me and my dh were lucky enough to see it 3 times within the first 3 months of London show being open. Needless to say it just got better every time we saw it!

I'd love to take my two kids but one is a little sensitive. What is the violence that people keep taking about? Are their slaves on stage/any maltreatment? Thanks

Shooting, bullying, flirting?

I took DD when she was 8 and the youngest audience member I saw by quite a few years. She was familiar with the songs and storyline so followed it easily but there are a few swear words. The audience is more mature than other West End musicals so make sure any children you take can be quiet and sit still for the duration.

On a side note we were in grand circle in supposedly terrible seats but the view was good, leg room fairly non existent but we had the aisle the seats only cost £37 each. The cast are brilliant at the stage door and we're really good chatting to DD it isn't very well organised and we got photos of 8 or 9 cast members which was nice.

• is well organised

Thanks guys..so there's no sign of chains and whips? Are there even slaves on stage or slavery is just mentioned?

Slavery is alluded to.

If nothing is seen on stage, that's brilliant. Thanks so much!

I would love to see this. My DD and her boyfriend were lucky enough to see it before it became THE thing to see! It was so funny - their tickets were standard price but they had a private box with it's own ensuite toilet and A PERSONAL BUTLER, who asked them if they would like to order anything from the bar. Neither really drink so asked for pick'n'mix sweets . They were totally blown away by the show

Slavery is alluded to but you never see slaves on stage, and no chains or whips. It’s very stylized - nothing graphic on stage.

I’m seeing it for the second time later this year - it is the cultural experience of a lifetime!

Saw it in Feb, having taken 8 yo DD. The tickets were her bday present.

It really is something else.

I'm so jealous, I've been saving for tickets/train and hoping I'll get some that aren't too far away time wise! I love it so much.

We saw Hamilton 2 weeks ago having booked it 8 months back and were blown away by it! So much so we just managed to nab returns for tomorrow's matinee and managed to get Row A, we were not throwing away that shot!

SO excited!

Ooh can't wait to see it in December. I'm taking DD for her 16th birthday!

Going in November.

Booked tickets in January.

Ds is beside himself with excitement.

Saw it yesterday afternoon Was absolutely amazing - have booked this morning to take DS in February!

Hi. Silly question....me and dd going for her birthday in December. Do people dress up to go, or are jeans ok to wear?! 

No dress code, usual smart casual.

I'd love to go but it really is insanely expensive.

We paid about £40 each which seems average for a lower category seat in WE these days.

Great, thanks Lizs 

I bought tickets for Christmas for dd. We go in February.

She is going to be beside herself.

I can't wait either 👏👏👏👏

I'm taking daughter, her friend and my niece to London in November. £100 a ticket, friend paid for hers DD and DNs were birthday presents.

I'm not massively excited, don't really know any of the songs but have very high expectations.

Especially after reading this thread 

@DevaDiva if you don’t love it, you have no soul. I’ve been listening to the soundtrack for a good few months, so I practically peed myself with excitement throughout the performance.....
