Hamilton

I've wanted to take the kids to Hamilton for a long time. But, the tickets are expensive and the show is a bit complicated. When we found out the show was coming to a close in Chicago, I knew this was our last change. We coordinated with our best buddies for an outing and took 5 girls and Ryan (!) to see the show. Between Brooke & Ryan, Ryan was way more into the show. He's been listening to the soundtrack with me and we've discussed the story. Brooke went along mostly because her friends were going ;) It was a school night, and it was late, but I convinced everyone to stand outside the stage door after to try to see some of the actors. The girls were insanely thrilled about this. Ryan less so - he was tired and wanted to go home.

Miguel had messaged me during the show (but I didnt check my phone) to suggest we come down to the stage after. Unfortunately I missed that message, or the kids would have had a chance to stand on the actual stage. THAT would have been amazing. However, they were more than thrilled to have the chance to meet him in the alley (surrounded by trash cans, haha). Andrew Call, who plays King George, actually was the one they were most happy to see after. With good reason, he is hilarous! What a great night.
