A masterful night of musical theater with Hamilton at the Hobby Center.
This is a review of superlatives. For there's no other way to describe Lin-Manuel Miranda's musical masterpiece,Sometimes it takes seasons between a slough of ordinary shows until a rare work of theater truly blows you away, bowls you over, and leaves you breathless in its originality. ThinkHamilton ecstatically has been added to this esteemed list. It will remain one of the great shows for as long as musicals are produced. It has won every prize imaginable except the Nobel.
Throughout, the audience is primed, eager to inhabit this world, ready to be enlightened and entertained, raring to be moved. Whatever they expect, they surely receive. Many in the audience are repeaters, you can hear them lightly hum along or anticipate what's coming. When a show becomes a cult hit, it has arrived.arrives with fulsome cannonade and wind-swept pennants. There really has never been anything on stage quite like it.
The score is astonishing; with clever lyrics rivaling Gilbert, Sondheim, Porter. They're whip-fast, tongue-twisting, and character-driven. The grand maw of the Hobby devours some of them, a few singers mumble them, and once in a while the orchestra drowns them out.
