It's so fun nerding out with you, so thanks for this! Having seen the choreography, have there been any purely non-verbal, non-musical moments that have knocked your socks off?
This is such a good question! Hereâs some of my favorites:
Hercules Mulligan striking a pose on âI think your pants look hotâ
The fact that they actual take a shot on the word âshotâ when Burr sings âif you talk, youâre gonna get shotâ
Hamiltonâs dance of celebration when after Elizaâs father shakes his hand
The entirety of the staging/choreography of Winterâs Ball/Helpless/Satisfied, especially how they use the turntable to ârewindâ
The way Hamilton and Laurens look at each other at the end of the Laurens Interlude (before Non-Stop - itâs not on the cast album)
Jefferson encouraging the audience to cheer for him at the beginning of Whatâd I Miss
Jeffersonâs mic drop after his verse in Cabinet Battle #1
Philip and Alexander hugging after the rap in Take a Break
Burr on top of the table during Room Where It Happens, and he jumps and the table cloth is pulled out from under him before he lands
Eliza pulling her hand away from Hamiltonâs while heâs trying to console her after Philipâs death
Eliza taking Hamiltonâs hand in Itâs Quiet Uptown
The look on Burrâs face when Hamilton endorses Jefferson instead of him
Hamilton kissing Elizaâs hand at the end of Best of Wives and Best of Women
All of the staging/choreography during Hamiltonâs monologue in World Was Wide Enough
Elizaâs gasp at the end of the show
There are a lot of awesome choreography moments that would be really difficult to describe, too. The visuals in the show are just awesome in general.
