NYC Day 5: The room where it happens

Another ideal day for indoor activities yesterday. I took another walk through Central Park.

The evening’s entertainment was Hamilton the Musical. I was painfully excited.

I knew Broadway theatres were small but the Rogers Theatre is TINY.

The show’s set is really bare, a turntable is the fanciest element. I loved this.

When transferring to Broadway it would be easy to use all the tricks but the producers have let the songs speak for themselves. These songs are good enough to leave alone.

I’ve not seen another musical that’s music from start to finish and I’m so glad I did.
