  • Every year, Millennium Park in downtown Chicago hosts a Broadway in Chicago summer concert in August. Here is the Hamilton performance. After the show, I watched some Chicago El trains run around the loop in the rain!
    Miguel Cervantes (Alexander Hamilton) and Tamar Greene (George Washington) are shown in this video.
    I do not own the rights to the music.

    Listened to the OST hundreds of times. This is the first time a different cast hasn't sounded strange to me - this was outstanding.

    Its probably because I saw it live in Chicago first, but I prefer Tamar Greene as Washington. God his voice just fills the entire venue

      I have seen hamilton live 8 times in both Chicago and NYC, and I can say unequivocally that Greene is the best Washington.

      Absolutely! I got the chance to tell him in person how much I love his voice! The HamiltonCHI cast is my cast! Miguel IS my A.Ham! He will be A.Ham once it opens again on Broadway.

    I saw them live back in 2018. The chemistry they had on stage performing these roles was amazing. This song in particular moved me to tears since I hadn't heard it before seeing the show.

    The unexpected rain did not drench your passion on trains, leaving us the valuable rainy L-train capture. ;-)

      @Luke_Starkenburg  5 лет назад +4

      I'm glad you watched to the end where the trains are! If you look at the other comment, someone wasn't happy that this wasn't a train video. Oops! The El shots didn't come out as well as I had hoped. If I wasn't juggling an umbrella and the camera/tripod, I think I would have been able to extend the tripod a little higher (on the wall) and gotten better shots. I have other similar day time footage from a few years ago. I'll make a compilation soon. When I say soon, I mean 1-3 years!! lol. I have so much footage that needs editing!

    I know the slogan of the show is something like, "The Story Of America Then, Told by America now." But I am honestly pleasantly surprised that the cast is really so diverse as it is, meaning that they did not try to recreate the original cast, in terms of looks and ethnicities, like how this Alex did not seem to be Latino like Lin. I appreciate that it does seem to be all about the talent at the "Hamilton" company.

      That of course is intentional and maybe is one of the reasons why the show has become a huge success.

      Miguel Cervantes is of Mexican heritage but, to your point, plenty of different actors of different backgrounds have played A. Ham, including Javier Muñoz and Jamael Westman.
