Hamilton

Hamilton has changed the way we view theatre in the 21st century. Although its style is not necessarily new it has introduced a form of theatre that attracts individuals with all kinds of interests- whether it be music (rap/hip-hop), individuals that like educational theatre or generally plays themselves as it is exceptional. I worry that this will create a need for theatre to transform in a way that makes the theatre going experience more engaging. Miranda uses sophisticated language with a steady rhythm making you nod your head along with the beat as you catch every word he speaks, there is something with rhythm that grabs our attention. This sets the bar higher for future productions on Broadway, audiences will need to be more physically entertained- this may not be hard to keep up with as we have technology advancing at a rapid rate.
