Hamilton (musical) Hamilton is a Broadway musical about Alexander Hamilton and the early days of the United States of America. The creator, Lin-Manuel Miranda, also starred as the titular character. It contains rap and Broadway-style singing and dancing, and deliberately casts people of color in the major roles. The show became a hugely popular international phenomenon. For a time, the creator and actors were very active on social media and were responsive and positive to their fandom. Because the musical is based on history, and the fandom also draws from history for supplemental content, Hamilton fandom has crossover with Historical RPF, and technically Political RPF. Canon. The show Hamilton is, in many ways, itself an RPF fanwork, following a tradition of Historical RPF written many years after the characters died. The canon of the musical and the canon of true US history that the musical is based on can be understood to be separate. What many regard is the most significant difference between the musical and historical is the racebending, the deliberate casting of people of color as historical figures who were all white. Lin-Manuel Miranda has explained this as a desire to let the people of color who are part of modern America insert and see themselves in the narrative of history. Views on the merits of this choice vary. Fandom. Hamilton became one of AO3's top 5 most popular Theater fandoms in late December 2015, when it hit over 660 works, [1] surpassing The Phantom of the Opera. It was by far the most popular fandom in Yuletide 2015, with 57 works in the main collection. Hamilton's popularity continued to steadily expand in 2016, probably helped along by its televised performance and win at the February 2016 Grammy Awards, and later its televised performances and several wins at the June 2016 Tony Awards. It April 2016, [2] it hit over 2,500 works and surpassed Sailor Moon to become the second-most popular Theater fandom, after Les Miserables. By the end of 2016 there were over 7,800 public Hamilton works, and by the end of 2017 over 13,600. Fandom activity slowed down in 2018, and Hamilton ended the year with 16,000 works on the site. Characterization. In fanart, character designs are usually based on the appearances of the actors in the Original Broadway Cast. Shipping. - speculated to have real- proof. - historically canon - was popular in the early days of fandom but is now one of the less-shipped pairings - an Enemyslash or Friends to Enemies relationship. The fact that Burr killed Hamilton in real life is a turn-off for many. Also popular within the fandom are several OT3 relationships. These often involve the titular character, Alexander Hamilton, whom fans ship with multiple people. is the most popular of these, as Hamilton is canonically married to Eliza but was speculatively involved in a relationship with Laurens. has grown in popularity, due to all three being shipped in some combination, and the presence of historical records proving they shared a close (though possibly platonic) relationship. is teased in the show, but has a small following in the fandom. On Tumblr, Twitter, and Ham4Ham. The show runs a "Hamilton for a Hamilton" digital lottery, a daily chance to win a front-row ticket for only $10, the bill with the real Hamilton's face on it. As a reward to the many, many people who stand in line waiting for the lottery, Lin-Manuel Miranda and the rest of the cast (with frequent guest stars), created short daily (or nearly daily) performances outside the theater called #Ham4Ham. This show is generally recorded and uploaded to the show's YouTube channel. The performances are wide ranging in style and content, and often take the form of mashups. These videos quickly became a phenomenon--a wellspring of larger community building, and an inspiration for fan memes. When the weather turned too cold, Lin recorded #Ham4Ham elsewhere (indoors) twice a week and uploaded the video to YouTube on time for the lottery. The live shows ran again briefly in summer 2016, but currently all #Ham4Hams are digital weekly. One of the most popular Hamilton related mashup memes on Tumblr and Twitter is force4ham. Star Wars characters are paired in screencaps, gifs, and videos with the lyrics and music of the show. potter4ham is also showing up, and there are a few trek4ham posts as well. (Rogue One edit featuring "The Story Of Tonight" lyrics; Arrow gifset featuring lyrics from "It's Quiet Uptown"). Relationship to History & RPF. The Hamilton fandom frequently overlaps with the 18th Century RPF fandom, as all characters in the show are real people in that time period. While the latter fandom tends to stick closer to actual events, describing characters as they appeared in history rather than how they appear in the show, they often co-incide, and canon era Hamilton fanfiction is frequently categorized a "18th Century RPF" as well, and tagged with it on AO3. The show has led many people to do research of their own on the time period, especially by reading the Ron Chernow biography of Alexander Hamilton which inspired the show (and subsequently made both Miranda and Chernow millionaires). RPF fanfiction of the main performers in the OBC is also present. Works categorized as "Hamilton - Miranda (Broadway Cast) RPF" first appeared on AO3 in December 2015. At the end of 2016 there were over 90 works, and by the end of 2017 there were over 410. By the end of 2018, the number had doubled to over 930 works, but the output slowed down significantly in 2019. As of 2019, Lin-Manuel Miranda is the most popular character and is tagged in over 440 works, and is followed closely by Alexander Hamilton. Over 550 works are crossovers between the musical and the cast RPF - these stories involve historical people and modern day actors interacting, usually through time travel. Fan Interactions with Actors. This article or section needs expansion. A lot of Hamilton fanart is also posted to Tumblr, which Lin-Manuel not infrequently rebloged. However, Lin stopped using Tumblr after a period. In the early days of the fandom, Lin and other cast member frequently interacted with fans on Twitter, often posting behind the scenes videos. There is also an Actor RPF fandom based on the cast and crew. Music. Its nature as a musical has lent itself to many fanvideos or fancovers of its work, which can be found on Youtube. These can be animatics, animated art set to the music, or direct covers or medleys of the songs. Fanworks. Zines. Animatics. Popular Animatic Artists: Controversy. To summarize, a Tumblr post that has over 200,000 notes: kaijuno: In 300 years someone’s gonna make a Hamilton-esque musical with Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton and Bernie Sanders and teenagers on the internet are gonna stan Donald Trump like “uwu my trash son Donald being a drama queen as usual” and I’m gonna have to do it. I’m gonna have to come back from the dead and destroy the planet. [3] Revising History. Depiction of Historical Figures. me: hey tubglr: alexander hamilton is a gay nonbinary demi boy uwuu stay hydrated me, hitting them w a newspaper: get out of my house. to be fair Hamilton is confirmed bi. to be fair Hamilton is confirmed slave owner. I love how they said confirmed like hes a fictional character and not a actual historical person who actually existed [4] Also see the controversy over the infamous weeaboo drug dealer Thomas Jefferson AU art. Depictions of Race within the Musical. The musical has received some, though of the minor opinion, criticism in: depicting slaveowners (such as Jefferson and Washington) as black men, making light of Jefferson's affair/rape of Sally Hemings, and glorifying the American Founding Fathers. Criticism is particularly directed towards Lin-Manuel Miranda's portrayal of Hamilton, who is written as an "immigrant" and an abolitionist but historically was a socialite who married into a slave trading family and assisted with the slave trades. Much of the criticism also focuses on if the intent and message of the musical is directed towards the right audience, particularly the large number of politicians and white people who are fans. Miranda also was under fire after it was discovered that he said the n-word in the Hamiltone audiobook. [6] Fandom's Treatment of Race. While plenty of fans of color, especially black fans, enjoy the musical as it is, many are particularly critical of white fandom in their constant need to make excuses [7] for the dismissal of slavery [8] - or lack of historical accuracy [9] - in the musical as well as saying that they don't enjoy rap - but they enjoy the music from Hamilton. Conversely, fans of color also criticize white people who disparage the musical, as the condemnation coming from white people can be read more performative rather than genuine allyship. [10] [11] But generally, many people of color have pointed out that white fans frequently try to distance their whiteness from factoring into their participation in Hamilton fandom [12] [13] , or are unable to comprehend that people of color can enjoy the musical while simultaneously being critical of it. [14] thequintessentialqueer made a meta post which began "I love Hamilton, but something about the way white fans engage with the musical really bothers me," which addresses revision of history by both the musical and the fans and criticizes fan practices that draw too much from real history. Further Reading: Examples Wanted : Editors are encouraged to add more examples or a wider variety of examples. why don't you like lin manuel? did he do something?, response by kancrum: He is a perfect example of that thing where talented people who create media have like maybe 1-2 chances to think “Is this the story I should be telling and am I telling it in the right way?” In which, while being aware that because they are talented and most things they make will be at least 6/10, they have to wonder about the impact of their creations and whether the narrative/art they are making will alter pop-knowledge. Hamilton: The Hit Musical's 10 Best Songs. Let's pick the 10 Best Songs of Lin Manuel Miranda's Hamilton, based not only on the score but also the acting and the choreographies. Disney + has brought Hamilton , the revolutionary musical written, composed and starred by Lin Manuel Miranda, to every screen on the planet. With every living room becoming the room where it happens, and a stunning score with 46 beautiful pieces, plus a new remix of My Shot set to the credits, it is difficult to pick just ten songs to make a list -- particularly after the soundtrack has been earworming its way into the pop-culture hive mind since 2015. However, when combined with the scenography, the acting, and the lightning, a list like this becomes more manageable. Let's take a look at the top ten numbers of Hamilton: The Musical. Alexander Hamilton. Alexander Hamilton has become one of the most famous opening songs of all time. Not only does it set the tone and motif of the main character, but it introduces the entire cast and characters (minus King George III) and Aaron Burr, the antagonist narrator, played by Leslie Odom Jr. The choreography is stunning, the parchment-white costumes perfect as the pages of history, and did you know that there's even a version of Demon Barber Sweeney Todd arranged by Lin Manuel Miranda himself to the tune of this act? My Shot. If A lexander Hamilton established the setting and background, My Shot presents Hamilton's motivations thorough his life: his passion, intelligence, and tendency to shoot off at the mouth before thinking things twice. The line "My Shot" works all the time on its triple meaning -- the shots that the four and a half amigos are drowning, the once in a lifetime opportunity to change their destinies and the world, and the foreshadowing of the shot that will eventually kill him. My Shot shines most in its second half, when it starts to echo the lines of " Rise Up ," inciting the colonies to revolution like an unstoppable wave, and superimposing Alexander's intense internal monologue with a frozen peek of a 1780's Manhattan rally. Helpless / Satisfied. If we are noting Hamilton 's songs for their scenography as well as their music, Helpless and Satisfied must go together. Helpless tells the story of the winter's ball, romance, and wedding of Alexander Hamilton and Eliza Schuyler from Eliza's point of view, while Satisfied , sung by Eliza's sister Angelica, who was herself in love with Hamilton, is a retelling of the same events. The difficulty of this act is in the choreography and stage movement, because as soon as Angelica starts to remember, the entire corps de dance and cast rewinds by moving in the exact opposite way as they did before, and then forward again at a different speed to match the rhythm of her memories. Renée Elise Goldsberry also plays Angelica's conflicted state of mind perfectly. Wait For It. Wait For It is Aaron Burr's first theme song, where he lays down his tragic family history and the reasons for his excessive prudence. Leslie Odom Jr. shines brightly, with a melodic style very different from the fast hip hop that Hamilton had showcased so far, and the lighting work sets it off beautifully. After Wait For It , it's difficult not to empathize with Burr. Ten Duel Commandments (and its reprises) There are three versions of The Ten Duel Commandments , each one darker than the other, as it becomes evident that duels are dumb, and guns in the hands of youngsters and civilians are even dumber. However, the first occurrence, when Hamilton's friend John Laurens shoots Charles Lee, takes away the price -- the choreography is crisp and precise, the song is catchy and all the characters are tall, dark and snarky enough to make them seem charming instead of deranged for holding a duel in the first place. Guns and Ships. Guns and Ships has been noted by Hamilfans as the hardest song of the entire musical. Daveed Diggs unleashes a version of the Marquis de Lafayette like the French have never seen, shooting rhymes even faster than he jumps while he single-handedly saves the American Revolution and intimidates George Washington into getting back his right-hand man. It gets 10 for lyrics, 10 for energy and choreography and a 0 in chill -- play Guns and Ships if you need to wake up fast and get things done. Dear Theodosia. The war is over, the Revolution is won and it's time to raise a new generation. Dear Theodosia is a hymn to the children and the future their parents want to create, sung by the strangely domestic and sensitive Aaron Burr and Alexander Hamilton. There's no choreography as such, but Dear Theodosia gets a spot in this list because it's an instant tearjerker and because Lin Manuel Miranda composed it not when he became a father, but right after he and his wife adopted a puppy. The Room Where it Happens. It takes Burr to see the capital move from New York to the Potomac to realize what he wants: to be part of the action, in the inner circle, in the room where it happens. His jealousy of Hamilton finally coalesces in one single purpose, and it's accompanied by one of the most frenetic dances of the entire musical in The Room Where It Happens -- the wheels turning in his brain -- as he tells the story of how Hamilton, Jefferson, and Madison reached an agreement behind closed doors. Stay Alive (Original and Reprise) The first Stay Alive takes place during the Revolution, as Eliza, left behind, writes letters to Alexander, who is at the front with Washington. The second Stay Alive is a heart-wrenching remix that plays over Philip Hamilton's death, set to the off-beat rhythm of The Ten Duel Commandments and Eliza's piano lines in the song Take a Break . It's only when the rhythm stops that the audience realizes that it wasn't the broken beat wasn't from the Commandments after all, but Philips' heart beating for the last time. Who Lives, Who Dies, Who Tells Your Story. Hamilton 's final number is not as catchy as its opening, but it turns the premise of the play upside down: while the audience was led to believe that everything we learned was through the eyes of Aaron Burr, Eliza's final number, where she unveils herself as the principal keeper of her husband's memory and the one that built the Hamilton's legacy, is revealed to be the real storyteller. Phillipa Soo shines in this number, and the ending, when her character sees the audience looking back at her, brings back the earlier words of George Washington, History Has Its Eyes On You , and provides enough food for thought until the next rewatch. Directed by Thomas Kail, Hamilton stars Lin Manuel-Miranda, Daveed Diggs, Renée Elise Goldsberry, Leslie Odom, Jr., Christopher Jackson, Jonathan Groff, Phillipa Soo, Jasmine Cephas Jones, Anthony Ramos, Okieriete Onaodowan and more. The recorded performance is now streaming exclusively on Disney+.
