Hamilton
All five dates playing in my town sold out within an hour. Sorry, but I just don’t get the obsession with this play. In fact, I find it troubling how popular it is. Based on what I can tell, it’s a (very) liberal retelling of the story of arguably the most authoritarian of our founding fathers. No wonder the leftists like it.

With their Cap’n and Chief Intelligence Officer having deserted them, River, Ham and Joe valiantly continue their whataboutismistic last stand of the DJT apology tour.

It sounds, idiotic. Gershwin must be crapping his old bones at what passes for a musical.

It's a musical extolling the value of revisionist history and cultural appropriation...what's not to love?I85hokie wrote:All five dates playing in my town sold out within an hour.
