This is my second time to see it live, but the first since I wrote PRESIDENT HAMILTON.
We've got slightly better seats this time.   Anyone else been to see it?

WOW!
What an incredible performance!   
The touring casts of HAMILTON are named after the characters in the musical; the group we saw are called the ANGELICA tour.  They were AMAZING - the musical balance of the cast was perfect; while the solo numbers were good, the trio and ensemble pieces were truly phenomenal.  The story and songs, of course, I already knew, but this particular performance was far better than the last time I saw HAMILTON onstage three years ago.

OH - and one more thing!   I was wearing a custom T-shirt for my book, PRESIDENT HAMILTON, and it caught the eye of the VP of the Dallas Summer Musicals.  We chatted a bit, and he said he could recommend the book be sold at future HAMILTON venues.   He gave me his card, and I emailed him this evening.  He wrote back right away, and the long story short version of it is, I'm asking my publisher to forward him a couple of copies, which he will send with his recommendation to the international VP of marketing for HAMILTON!  This could be HUGE!!
