Cast Replacements Outdated

I noticed a lot of the cast replacement list was outdated. Either the people listed as currently in the Broadway production have been replaced, or the list was just incomplete. Also, why are the dates of each replacement included? RaCJ1325 (talk) 23:16, 17 December 2021 (UTC)

King George coronation ceremony

I was wondering if the King George coronation "ceremony" that they do for all new actors who play the King should be included. I had considered adding it myself but I couldn't find an appropriate place to put it that would fit in. Does anyone have any ideas? The C of E God Save the Queen! (talk) 18:52, 5 January 2022 (UTC)

While it's interesting, it seems more like a fun fact and not encyclopedic. RaCJ1325 (talk) 16:39, 7 January 2022 (UTC)

Yeah I'm sure most shows have fun special traditions such as this.TWoW062616ozm091513 (talk) 02:47, 29 March 2022 (UTC)

The dates for replacements?

Why are the dates in which the cast replacement preformed included in the list of replacements? I don't think any other musical article include this. Assuming Hamilton keeps running for a while, it feels like this will make that section of the article really long (visually because the dates take up space) and visually hard to read.

Three American tours in 2022

Hi, Just saw Hamilton in Washington DC, and I was trying to find out about three tours that seem to be performing Hamilton presently in the US. The article seems to list 3 tours "presently" touring but the schedule seem to be all pre-covid. I do have program with the current cast and can add it, but I do not know much about what tour is it.

Unsubstantiated fan theory presented as factual in the synopsis

"The musical ends with Hamilton, now portrayed as Lin-Manuel Miranda shaking Eliza's hand, implying he has told her story through the musical"

This is merely a common fan theory and has been denied by Lin-Manuel Miranda on multiple occasions. This needs to be changed as soon as possible.

Semi-protected edit request on 20 December 2022

I would like to edit because when I was researching Hamilton, I found a brilliant point that I believe should be added. It was how the main point of Hamilton was about: 'whether the world is wide enough for all of us with different stances and beliefs to live and thrive in.'. I would also like to write a very short paragraph about that point; how Hamilton really shows the real competition of the world, the truth of all the people wanting to achieve something.

More references to the "my dearest [comma]" anecdote

The article is locked. Here are more references to that, other than that random tweet:

The mentioned part is under the "historical accuracy" section. 109.253.193.16 (talk) 12:45, 26 February 2023 (UTC)

The German production is set to close in November 2023 and will be replaced by Dance of the Vampires. The reason given was lack in ticket sales. Devilcookie175 (talk) 18:37, 23 March 2023 (UTC)

The Australian production needs to be added to the list of productions. It opened at the Sydney Lyric Theatre in March 2021 and it’s still going. It was the only Hamilton production running during the Covid lockdowns. 203.164.168.87 (talk) 07:45, 24 March 2023 (UTC)

The West End Production

It's been extended until March of 2024. Can someone update that?

Hello?? 136.32.252.38 (talk) 21:56, 29 March 2023 (UTC)

I have removed the reference to a booking until date. It is an open ended run so not necessary. Mark E (talk) 02:53, 30 March 2023 (UTC)

In the differences in the play to real life, although it’s true that Hamilton wrote the letter that references the comma, it’s untrue that Angelica “knocked it down.” There isn’t any direct references to it in subsequent letters. The only thing cited is a tweet. It also isn’t really true that their relationship is exaggerated in the play. It’s really a matter of opinion, and many historians actually believe they had an affair. Many of their contemporaries believed they were, as well. KnoxBlue (talk) 04:01, 10 April 2023 (UTC)

In the historical accuracy section, remove where it says Angelica “knocked it down.” about the flirty comma letter. The tweet cited is inaccurate. There isn’t any direct mention of it in their subsequent letters. KnoxBlue (talk) 04:14, 10 April 2023 (UTC)
