Hamilton, London

Hamilton is notoriously difficult to book tickets for so when my friend David casually mentioned that he’d booked tickets I made sure he saved one for me. I’m ashamed to say I don’t know a great deal of US history and had no idea who Hamilton actually was, or really in fact what most of the show was about before I went. I literally knew that it was meant to be an excellent show and that was it. Thankfully despite my lack of knowledge I was able to follow what was going on and the songs were brilliant, really catchy and beautifully done. Despite being a historic subject it’s done with super contemporary music. I really enjoyed it. For days afterwards I found myself humming the tunes and I’ve downloaded the soundtrack onto my phone. Definitely worth seeing.
