    Just putting this out there, the theatre community needs to let go of its toxic “the obc are the only valid option” mentality. You can still like Pippa best but you are all downgrading and overlooking fantastic actresses who worked their ass off to be just as good as the original. There isn’t and CANT be a “best” best Eliza, there are only different Elizas and that’s what makes theatre special, watching different people interpret the same character because everyone brings something special of their own to the table

    So, my friend has this awesome theory about Eliza’s gasp. You see, when she sees Alexander and they hold hands, she’s already dead. And when he guides her to the audience, she gasps because she sees that her story’s been told. “Look at all the people who are here to see my story” it’s just a theory but I personally prefer it over the gasp being Eliza’s final breath. Just putting it out there

Like, she tried so hard to get his story told and never knew the outcome until now. Millions of people watching this show, bringing not only her husband but her son, her family, her sisters, and herself into the narrative. She’s done it. She told his story.

It just sounds like you’re showing off your voice, but we all know Lin better than to cast someone who would do that. Not saying the woman doesn’t have a nice voice, but it’s a simple and emotional scene. We want to focus on the emotions and not the vocals that are competing for attention.

      I'm not gonna lie, I like what the other actresses did, however, I still prefer Phillipa Soo's more not because it was shot more professionally, but because her facial expression to me was the best of all of them, they all sounded great, but Soo's was the only one to get me to tear up, because it felt more raw, and the others sounded like they were still focusing on giving a good vocal gasp that sounded to clear and "Disney princess" like to me.
      Vocally all of them did well, but Soo's gave me what the scene was asking for more, raw emotion she gave the right facial expression, and her gasp has this weird voice crack to it that makes it sound even more emotional.

    The lyric “When my time is up, have I done enough? Will they tell my story?” really shapes how i view the gasp. Right after those lyrics, Eliza sees Hamilton and he takes her to the edge of the stage and shows her the audience. Basically, she had done enough and her family’s story is still being told hundreds of years later and that gasp is her being overwhelmed with joy that her work paid off.

    I see so many people talking about an “Eliza” musical in her eyes, but I believe that Lin did enough. The entire ending gave her so much justice to the fact that Eliza did everything for everyone. Lin let Eliza have the ending, which is about the most powerful part in a show. It’s what leaves people all teary-eyed when the curtain drops. Lin knew that Eliza should have the ending since Hamilton isn’t quite the “star”, he’s just the person that every characters story circles around.

      Peggy died at age 42. She eloped with a guy who was about 6 years younger than her. He was a distant cousin, and his family was very rich and influential. She had 3 kids, one of which survived to adulthood.
      Legend has it that she saved her baby niece and possibly her brother (they had a brother, Lin took creative license when in the play they didn't have one) from enemies during the war. She supposedly told them the wrong way to go to find her brother and was nearly killed saving the baby.
      She was ill for a while before she died. Alexander and her had maintained a platonic/familial relationship, and he spent time with her while she was sick, writing to Eliza with updates. When Peggy asked him to stay longer, he agreed, so he was there when she died. He was the one to write with the news to Eliza.

    That’s the amazing thing about being a stage actor, it’s your job to become the character and make the character a part of you. That’s why it’s always different. If the actors didn’t put themselves into their roles and become one with the character, it would be so monotonous and lifeless. It’s how they put themselves in the characters shoes and REALLY feel the emotion they are showing.
    That’s how it feels to me anyway, may not be the same for everyone. I would love to one day be able to do big shows and be able to show my own version of these characters.

    Everyone is talking about how Lin brings her more towards the crowd, and like shows her. Because he WROTE the show, so of course that part is more special to him than the other Alexander performers. But that doesn’t mean the other actors aren’t as good, it’s probably just not as meaningful to them. And let’s not bring any Eliza’s down they’re all so talented, I mean to even get on Broadway you have to have a lot of talent.

Each one is deserving of praise and love, they earned the role, they deserved the role, regardless of who your favorite is, they are all incredible. You can tell everyone has a different interpretation and intention behind the gasp. Everyone gasps, but each for their own personal reason. That’s part of the beauty of theatre. Nobody plays a role/character the same way, nor should they. Every character is unique to the person playing them and I think that’s beautiful.
