Even Lin Manuel Miranda did not get this Woke when he casted for "Hamilton". Ten minutes into "Hamilton" you forget the race and ethnicity of the cast because the play doesn't dwell on them. Somehow I don't think the same will be true of this...revival.

I have seen the movie several times and I saw the show live in St. Louis years ago and enjoyed both. I like how they pick actors who resemble the historical figures. The final scene, with the actors posed to reenact the signing of the Declaration, is very moving.
This new one is a freak show for freaks. I hope the freak audience is very small and the producers lose big money. To hell with people who have to twist everything, even the great moments of history, to conform to their wretchedness and their rotted minds and souls,.

Maybe this is why many of the COVID hotspots are in cities. This is a Divine Judgement.

ROGER: The theatre’s so obsessed
With dramas so depressed
It’s hard to sell a ticket on Broadway
Shows should be more pretty
Shows should be more witty
Shows should be more...
What’s the word?
LEO: Gay?
ROGER: Exactly!
No matter what you do on the stage
Keep it light, keep it bright, keep it gay!
Whether it’s murder, mayhem or rage
Don’t complain, it’s a pain
Keep it gay!

William Daniels, who played John Adams in the movie - and on Broadway - is still alive at 93 (as is his St. Elsewhere co-star Norman Lloyd at 105). Ken Howard (Thomas Jefferson) is gone. Howard Da Silva (Benjamin Franklin), long gone.

The new casting is a gimmick to fill the seats (which won't be filled so long as we are on lockdown). They overdid it, though. People who might go see the play with an all female cast will be turned off or lost by all the transgender stuff.

It will be a sellout in Provincetown, Fire Island and South Beach.

Does anybody have a copy of that record in which an open homosexual was drummed out of the military in the early days of this republic?

It does sound like there is an opening somewhere in there for Tom Hanks.

Nah, they’re just stupid and think the safety protocols don’t apply to them. Plus, cities are more densely populated, making the disease spread more easily.

Darn, I have other engagements for the day it opens (and closes). As a kid I did theater, but at least we didn’t ruin history.
