You can tell they're music theatre actors, every inch of every work is perfectly crisp and pronounced, whereas some of the OBC had more of a casual flow.
@@Tillysnow1 Yes, it's always been this big! It doesn't look as big on the actual set because they're spread apart, whereas this stage is slightly smaller
I've seen him and the best way to describe it is that Jonathan groff plays George as pretty camp and sassy whilst the west end version just sounds so done with Americans 😂 and a bit more sarcastic of course. As much as groff puts in the effort he says a lot of words weirdly like "sad" or "mad" and this one fixes it
To me it sounds like they are trying to differentiate from the 1st cast way too much. But I'm sure they are all great performers, no doubts about that.
I saw Hamilton on Disney plus and now I'm just binge watching every Hamilton related videos. Also kicking myself HARD for not going to see this before coronavirus hit and theaters are closed everywhere. Man, did I .. *throw away my shot.* 😭😭
I kinda find it ironic how there's a British cast performing a musical about American history in Hamilton, and an American cast performing a musical about British history in Six
I feel like they should have kept their British accents, like how the Broadway cast of Six didn’t switch to a British accent. I feel like some of the actors aren’t showing their full potential by focusing on their fake accents
And British and American casts all played Austrians in The Sound of Music. Let alone a recent West End production of Uncle Vanya and not a Russian in the cast..............Heaven forbid!!!
@@livreece7438 I've seen an interview with lin, and he says that he doesn't cast people to sound like the original cast, and that everyone sings the part in their own way. I personally went to see this play in London and I was blown away by how amazing it was, especially Burr, and he didn't overdo the accent at all. There's a reason he won an award for this performance, but I can't remember which one.
I know why they sound odd! The London cast is using a standard American accent whereas certain characters in the US Hamilton are using New York City accents. Leslie Odom Jr. is from Queens and has a rhotic R, which is why he says "landlord/afford" without pronouncing the R in those words. English folks also have a rhotic R, so using a non-rhotic R makes them sound more American for the play. It's also a good stylistic choice. In the US Hamilton, they want to emphasize New York City, but that's not the game plan as much for the London Hamilton. Using the non-rhotic R for Aaron Burr makes him sound nerdier almost.
You're mixing up rhotic and non-rhotic. Rhotic is when you do pronounce the strong R. Interesting point about playing to specific crowds. What's interesting though is that the "odd" New York accent in the British version is probably more accurate historically. British English was largely rhotic until the 19th century, when the non-rhotic accent gradually spread from the upper classes as people imitated it. Large US east coast trading cities like Boston and New York had a lot of contact with the British, even after the revolution, and the non-rhotic R spread there too. At the time of Hamilton though, people in New York would still have a rhotic accent I think. It would be New YoRk, not New Yawk.
What's funny is that Hamilton himself was only about 5'7, whereas Jamael Westman is 6'4, almost a foot taller =P Lin-Manuel Miranda is far closer to his actual height
XxKingJPXx Xx no sorry, i made that comment cause in the comment section everyone was talking about how they like Pippa so much better and I was like the other Eliza needs more support here. So I said that...sorry if it came off rude
And she’s just below 5 ft (I might be wrong) which is why Jamaal (spelling?) , the guy who plays Hamilton, looks way taller. And on camera with the angles too.
as an american i think this cast did extraordinary. i’m still obsessed with this performance. not sure why so many people are overanalyzing the accents
It's such a weird thing to complain about. I'm sure Americans have just as many slips when trying to put on British or French accents! I think the cst did a great job.
I know! In my opinion its harder for a brit to put on an american accent. But anyways, the american cast already had the accent so of course people will think they are better. I have full respect for this cast
@@julialelewel4477 Their job is to tell the story to their audience and they’re performing for a British audience. When I watch British shows I keep on the captions, because I don’t always understand the accents (I’m from the States). I imagine if they were as full of New York swagger as the American cast, the British audience wouldn’t catch all the lyrics. Their very proper enunciation would be corny to an American audience, but they’re not performing for an American audience.
It’s not, every live show is slower than the album, even the original Broadway cast, just to make the show worth seeing they stretch it out and add scenes.
i do think leslie was the iconic burr and will always be, but then again everyone is so different!! if you go to an audition NO ONE IS THE SAME it’s crazy!! even though some might have done it a bit better, we should respect those others who worked hard for the role they desired :)
Haha! The cast are super talented. I am loving to see other casts away from the OBC cast too (because y’know, Disney plus.) Just like different adaptions. It’s beautiful.
whaaat!! he was amazing on stage and i loved his interaction with the crowd, but i never got to meet him! i wanted to meet the cast but thought it was impossible (we were all hungry, so we went to go eat instantly)
I'm so glad they went for such a different interpretation of the characters. I think a lot of casts make the mistake of trying to mimic the original casts because that's what everyone's used to from the recordings, but that's not what theatre is all about. You're supposed to have a different experience from night to night, never mind cast to cast. It's not meant to be standardized. This is a much better approach.
People seem to forget that they had to eliminate their accents. This is especially hard when singing. And i bet you they would be getting no hate if the just said hamilton the "American" way. This cast is awsome
My first ever visit down to London was to see this for my 33rd birthday. Blew me away at how utterly phenomenal it was. I was sceptic going down that I had built it up so much having fell in love with the cast album but it was by far the greatest thing I have ever seen in any form. Can't wait to go back down in 2019 to see it again.
The guy here is great, don’t get me wrong, but this makes me appreciated Leslie Odom Jr. a lot!! The way he speaks/sings is so captivating and distinctly American that melds so well with the rap/hip hop music!!! Love that man!
I mean, people in the comments are saying bad things about aaron burr, and he is incredibly talented, and of course he belongs on that stage. Also, I doubt that anyone could really live up to Leslie Odom Jr, who is also very talented
Unfortunately I’m not that fond of how the guy who played Burr did the rapping. He doesn’t quite have the intonation and word emphasis down right. He sings the rap a bit too much. He sounds like his “Wait for It” would be amazing though!
I really loved their voices, the choreography and heartfelt performances you wanted to see live. Every words they sang, makes you want to know Alexander Hamilton story.
Ok this is stolen from another comment I take no credit but these actors are doing the sort of classic American accent whereas the original broadway actors come from all over America, having accents that are still American but they’re different American accents. No hate just trying to inform :)
I KNEW I SHOULD HAVE WATCHED IT! I was in London a while ago, and I tried to convince my mom to watch it with me. She was hesitant, and after thinking, I gave up and stopped trying to ask her. I SHOULD HAVE WATCHED IT!
The London one was amazing and I personally before this cast more. Everyone in the comments is saying they prefer the USA version, but you can't really judge unless you've seen at least one live, honestly
@@thorandlundeve kind of agree with you, also its how he delivers the lines, maybe we're just so used (me personally) on how Leslie Odom Jr. did Aaron Burr. It just didn't somehow convey the emotion we should be feeling.
I disagree, i thought he sounded awsome. I get some people may not have liked his voice but i really love the voice he put on. It's different but i like it
I'm sitting here wondering why I recognise Burr...he was in Horrible Histories Update (15/07/2020): just saw him on the news about an online theatre show
My friends reaction to Burr was laughing, her reaction to Laurens was, “shit, he’s hot” her reaction to the height difference between Eliza and Hamilton was silence.
You can tell they're music theatre actors, every inch of every work is perfectly crisp and pronounced, whereas some of the OBC had more of a casual flow.
RACHELLE ANN GO KILLS IT AS ELIZA OMG
Also, is the ensemble always this big? It looks bigger than the OBC
Agree. They sound more professional than original to me
Some of their accents sounded like they were trying to sound generic American when they rapped as opposed to natural, but not bad
@@Tillysnow1 Yes, it's always been this big! It doesn't look as big on the actual set because they're spread apart, whereas this stage is slightly smaller
Eliza is sung by Rachelle Ann Go, who also sung part of First Burn, and she’s killing it!
I love her as Gigi in Miss Saigon
Viani Toledo I think she played Gigi, but yeah, I loved her too
Little Panda her voice is incredible
Wow Rachelle Ann Go is already playing in Hamilton 💪👏👏
I saw her in the thumbnail and was like, “GURRRRRL!” 😂 she was definitely the strongest singer imo

Yeah she is great!
I’m british and seeing more british people trying to do an American accent is making me die of laughter
I love how some of them aren't even British
They're over pronouncing some sounds in words, I think they should have gotten an American to touch up on the accents
Omg their accents stinkkkk they still sound good tho
Same, burr sounds like a cowboy and Hamilton looks like my year 6 P.E teacher.
I feel like they were overreacting on the American accent but I agree they should’ve had someone who was American to touch up on the accents.
i saw hamilton in london a few weeks ago and im sorry but giles terera as burr is INSANE, he STOLE the show for me honestly
AGREED
That’s great to hear!
Really? Truly disliked him when I saw it...
Thank you for the information, is good to know

well they're nailing Eliza, Hercules and Washington.

lolll i read that very differently
aaron burr needs to relax the accent slightly. he's overdoing it, but it's lowkey making me chuckle and I'm here for it.
Right, he was doing the accent to harshly but it was okay
It's not that he's trying too hard to do an American accent, he just has a voice irregularity.
That's part of his act
Buga Duga no one the original cast chosen by Lin burr was meant to articulate not over do the accent

They aren’t the best tho tbh
Apparently he's only 6' 4"... he looks way taller

This Burr is disappointing. He completely lacks the charisma and mildly Machiavellian-but-still-main-character “Iago” energy the character needs.

Omg this Eliza sounds great!! ❤
I mean, people in the comments are saying bad things about aaron burr, and he is incredibly talented, and of course he belongs on that stage. Also, I doubt that anyone could really live up to Leslie Odom Jr, who is also very talented
Why does this version Burr feels like a Goofy trying to suppress his accent
LMAOOO
The reason why he sounds like that is because he has a vocal irregularity, not because he's trying to suppress his accent.
I think cuz he’s British?
Oh no i read this and now i can’t unhear it
DYING 🤣
Who plays Hamilton?! He's outstanding (with all due respect to Lin-Manuel Miranda)!!
Jamael Westman! He is outstanding, isn't he? (and super tall!)
Raspberry Bear hes kinda peng styll 😳
He really is!!
Eliza sounds amazing ❤😭
The "Just you wait!" And the the part where they all sing "Never learn to take your time!" Is always so good no matter which cast it is
After I watched this on Disney + I can’t imagine any other actors playing these roles! (Even though these people are amazing!)
Jameal as Hamilton is honestly perfect casting, he was so brilliant when I saw him.
Totally agree! And this is his third show ever as well!? He is amazing.
I honestly love the Burr actor's accent, it's amazing
it’s sad that i saw a ton of people in the comments that disliked his voice, I honestly kinda liked it
My girlfriend saw this in London and said it was straight up the best show she's ever seen. And that was during the interval.
Unfortunately I’m not that fond of how the guy who played Burr did the rapping. He doesn’t quite have the intonation and word emphasis down right. He sings the rap a bit too much. He sounds like his “Wait for It” would be amazing though!
i saw him live and omg his wait for it and room were it happens were amazing i get u with the rapping though. the whole cast was amazing aha
Agree with Iona, his Room where it happens was actual better than Leslie's.
I NEED A BOOTLEG OF THIS (of this cast)
PLEASE
RACHELLE ANN GO IS FREAK'N KILLING IT!!!!! 😍😍😍😍😍😍
I really loved their voices, the choreography and heartfelt performances you wanted to see live. Every words they sang, makes you want to know Alexander Hamilton story.
They aren’t bad at all, they are talented but they need to sound “American”
Naysa Rangai Yeah-
That’s still pretty hard for them because someone them are British
Ok this is stolen from another comment I take no credit but these actors are doing the sort of classic American accent whereas the original broadway actors come from all over America, having accents that are still American but they’re different American accents. No hate just trying to inform :)
Theres this musical called six, its british, when Americans do it, it's all chill, but when it's the other way the Americans go all insane
Garnet so true 😂.
3:07 ALWAYS gives me chills
Destiny Gamer RIGHTTTT
Omgggg the Eliza is SO good
I still find it amazing how they’re rapping without losing breathe or without making it obvious that they took a breathe 😩
That's the cast I've seen in London two years ago. They were all brilliant.
I KNEW I SHOULD HAVE WATCHED IT!
I was in London a while ago, and I tried to convince my mom to watch it with me. She was hesitant, and after thinking, I gave up and stopped trying to ask her. I SHOULD HAVE WATCHED IT!
The London one was amazing and I personally before this cast more. Everyone in the comments is saying they prefer the USA version, but you can't really judge unless you've seen at least one live, honestly
I don’t think any cast will beat the original one. They were too good.
i’ve seen both....obc is obviously superior
This cast is great! They sound amazing especially when they all sing together!!!
they are so good and wholesome 😭
1:45
O.O
Is that mah gurl Rachelle? Oh boi. I'm Asian and I know a lot about her.
yes it's her :D
She's philipino though
@@oliviag469 You are aware that the Philippines are in Asia, right?
Anonymous Aelin rightt 💀
Asians be like: OH RACHELLE HI
In a way, it's surreal because of the musical's perspective on Britain. Now I want to see king George
Plot twist: King George is the only American cast member
the collective breath right before everyone sings “ TIIIIIiiIIIiiIiME “ gets me every time :,)
I like this cast as well, only Burr sounds like he does not fit in there, not saying he is not great, just not in this role perhaps...
I agree I don't think his voice fits the role of Burr. He has a good voice just doesn't fit the character
I think it's not his voice. The way they sang is quiet different in tone, rhythm, and pitching
@@thorandlundeve kind of agree with you, also its how he delivers the lines, maybe we're just so used (me personally) on how Leslie Odom Jr. did Aaron Burr. It just didn't somehow convey the emotion we should be feeling.
I disagree, i thought he sounded awsome. I get some people may not have liked his voice but i really love the voice he put on. It's different but i like it
@@thorandlundeve Exactly, I just don't feel it.
I love Hamilton and Alexander Hamilton I live in London
Amazing! Well done for winning 7 awards! Pride is not the word I’m looking for 🎉❤️
I saw this cast in person, a couple of years ago, and they were so smooth! They definitively got an incredible cast for the west end!
I'm sitting here wondering why I recognise Burr...he was in Horrible Histories
Update (15/07/2020): just saw him on the news about an online theatre show
Beth Cody wdym
What really?! Who was he?
@@mollymarch286 he did the HHTV Sports
Oh my god yes!!
My friends reaction to Burr was laughing, her reaction to Laurens was, “shit, he’s hot” her reaction to the height difference between Eliza and Hamilton was silence.
Why is this man a giant compared to all of them?
The cast is amazing!!!! They perform the words more clear.
Wow! This really is excellent! I love seeing different actors portraying the roles. It just shows how great of a show this really is!
