I love musicals but Hamilton didn't grab me. Maybe being Australian, I can't relate? Anyway, I gave up within the first 10 minutes and doubt I'll return to finish it.
My six-year-old fell asleep during a live performance of Phantom in New York. I'm not sure how great of a measuring stick a six-year-old is.We did sit down as a family and jump into it. Made it about 30 minutes then my 6 yo lost interest.
Wasn't really using the 6 yo as a yardstick, the fact was NONE of us went back and watched it. Actually, not true, I did end up watching the rest of it. Worth watching, not worth the hype. As I said in my OP, in person, night out, get dressed up, I could see how that would be better.My six-year-old fell asleep during a live performance of Phantom in New York.

I really enjoyed “1776” and tried to get into Hamilton, and can’t.I also could not get into it, I like musicals but not when the whole thing is one long song. Watch "1776" great musical that came out in the 60s or 70s written by a Columbia grad who double majored in music and history.
