If someone messages you asking if you want to go to Hamilton the only correct answer is yes
Hahahah I know right 😂
No no no awful show
I saw Hamilton a week ago for my 18th birthday and it was amazing (I don't think I've cried that much within 3 hours before). But becuase of cost, my mum and I had £37.50 tickets in row F of the Grand Circle. I had been admittedly worried about the view but I had looked up photos from roughly the same place we were and it is a great view! I had seen that leg room was crap, but as it was the Grand circle, I kind of assumed that was to be expected (however to hear it's the same in the stalls and dress circle is crazy and not great). My mum and I were at the end of the row right by the left-hand side wall so my mum was able to stretch out into the stairs a bit. Also, there was a small gap between the stairs and seats so we could store coats there to keep leg room free as much as possible. But yeah, I had a great time and for the price, it is a really great experience. So yeah, would recommend (especially as some grand circle tickets can reach £200 for some reason). Anyway, I love your videos, thank you!!
Thank you so much for sharing your experience here and I'm so glad you loved the show!! ❤️ It makes me sad how bad the legroom is 😂 The aisle seats are definitely a winner if you can get them!
I mentioned your comment about leg room to my mum, and her theory was that to completely rework the seating/raking for all three levels would have been such a massive remodeling of the theatre that the show would have been pushed back even further in timings. I don't know if that would be the case, but she also mentioned that whilst the leg room was a bit tight, she didn't feel as affected by as she thought she would be (but that might be because I warned her about it first!). But yeah, the aisle did help overall as it just gave us a bit more space. We also remember looking down at the side benches and thought about how cool they looked as seats, but if the view really is that bad, then maybe not as cool as I originally thought!!
I LOVE HAMILTON I SAW IT IF YOURE THINKING ABOUT SEEING IT , DONT HESITATE ! ITS INCREDIBLE
Got tickets for September and I could never be more excited
Honestly, if you love hamilton i would save up for better tickets. I was in row F i think...my ticket was right in the centre and cost £200 but i never missed a thing. If you love hamilton and want a memorable first time seeing it..wait..save up...and make it the best time ever.
You make a very solid point 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Same. In my opinion if you get the chance to, save for a great ticket at least once. Even if you get cheap tickets the rest of the time, you have experienced everything and know you're not missing out.
I got the cheapest seats in london and I was able to see burr wink during Schuyler sister's, so you won't miss anything no matter where you're sitting. I honestly dunno what she's on about, idk of any seats in there that you wouldn't be able to see it all.
Saw this yesterday with the cheap tickets, could see EVERYTHING and the cast was as good as OBC
I feel the exact same about the main burr. I really didn’t enjoy him when I seen the show. I just think he didn’t have as much passion as I thought he would and I thought he had the same tone all the way through and never changed his voice at all!! I loved everyone else though!!Xx
Yeah it's funny isn't it how some people love Giles and some are bit... meh 😂
I sat at the back of the stalls, at the side, last weekend and it was probably the best I’ve heard the show sound (was my 5th visit) - everything was crystal clear and for the first time all the individual voices were so easy to distinguish. The dress circle overhang really wasn’t too much of a problem either, and the only thing that was cut off was the heads of anyone stood at the front of the side balcony on the side we were sitting
Thank you so much for sharing your experience! 😄
I saw it back in March 2018 and paid £100 for back of the stalls with the dress circle overhang. I didn’t mind it honestly, you only missed a tiny bit of the top of people’s heads if they were up on the balcony. What I liked from that angle were the shots that look good from below, e.g. the ending of The Room Where It Happens.
I saw it again yesterday for £37.50 and had grand circle row B in the middle. It was an amazing view for the price: I got to see everything (with very little obstruction from the safety bar) and had a much easier time seeing facial expressions. I loved being able to see the lighting effects on the stage itself too. Probably the luckiest I’ll ever get with seats in Hamilton!
It didn’t even feel like I was watching this for 40 minutes
I hope you mean that in a good way! 😉😂
Lol of course! I was so into this video even tho i don’t live in the UK 😂
I was sat in the upper circle in H25 and it was such a good view as when they have hurricane you get an above view of the furniture moving and its so cool.
Ahhh been waiting for this video, I watched it on 23rd February and I was in the stalls what an amazing show!!!
Glad you had an amazing time Isobel!! 🌟
I must say, I looked in the spur of the moment in Jan/Feb for Hamilton tickets. Literally, the second date I looked at had 2 central £37.50 seats on either side of the aisle. After hmming and ahhing for 5 minutes, I bought the buggers. July, I'm coming to see you, Hamilton!
Wheyyyy!!! That's so cheap too, nice one! It's worth the wait 😄
The £37.50 seats are the isle seats in the grand circle and I agree with you about the leg room😂😂
Yeah if you can get the aisle seats that'd be perfect 👏🏼👏🏼
i saw Hamilton in west end in row G at the stalls. I paid 250 pounds. IT'S TOTALLY WORTH IT. I absolutely LOVE Hamilton so much and I loved it and I don't rehret paying 250 pounds, the seat was amazing and I saw everything perfectly I was so happy
Hey! I have purchased seats that are located also in the center of the stalls but it is row P so its a bit further back, do you think that the view will be good as well? I really hope so :o
paid £275 for the vip package, i know it is a LOT, however our host had said that our seats (middle of the 4th row of the stalls) would have been around £250 without the package so we actually saved a lot considering the bonuses that came with the package. i would say that if you had the money and were willing to splurge £200+ on seats, check out the premium packages because you might be able to get a better deal (especially when you consider that you get complimentary snacks and drinks, a private room and merch).
Going in about a week with £75 grand circle row d tickets...a lot but only booked a week ago! Very excited 😆
9Firmino Brilliant for the money! Perfectly clear view of the stage.
I managed to get a seat for £37.50 (Grand Circle G10) in May and I thought the view was excellent. Seat 10 is more towards the middle, so I could see every part of the stage clearly and the rake is very good. However, the legroom is abysmal. Standing up during the interval and at the end was quite painful - but the show is so brilliant that I hardly noticed. I will definitely try to see it again when I'm back in London.
I loved your comments on the different cast members!
I think Giles evolved so much in the part since previews, at least in my opinion. I didn't love his performance much when I first saw him, I really like Sifiso's Burr. But then I saw Giles again this month and I absolutely loved the way he portraits Burr, especially how we get to see the way he is affected by the events happening during the show and how that ends up in him doing what he ultimately does.
I also noticed that Miriam-Teak's mic was low both times I saw her as Angelica, I don't know why that happens. Also, I'm pretty sure the back tracks in Satisfied ("I remember that night, I remember that night...") had Rachel John's voice in at least one of the times, which is funny.
Did you get a chance to see Ash Hunter as Hamilton? I think his performance was so different from Jamael, and it is very interesting to compare both of them.
Hi Talvany, thanks for watching! I'm excited to see Giles again, it's been ages, I'm sure he's really different now in comparison with when I last saw him. Weird Miriam's mic was low for you too, you're so lucky to have seen her twice! 👏🏼 I saw Ash as Hamilton on my 2nd visit and really loved his portrayal, I agree with you, he's so different!
Hi, Rukaya! Thank you for your video explaining all this information. I'm planning to go next year (2020) to this musical, but I don't know if they do it every year. Do you have any information about that? If so, do you know when the tickets go on sale? Thank you beforehand!
I saw Hamilton in London 2 says ago! It was soooooo awesome!
I sat at the back of the stalls with the dress circle overhang and it wasn't the worst view, I could see everything apart from people's faces on the back balcony. Sound was amazing, although Eliza's mic was a bit quiet! Fantastic show though, love your videos! ❤️
Emily Glaze I sat there too and felt the same way x
Glad to hear the sound is still good there, thank you for sharing that!! Hopefully they iron out the mic problems but I guess it is live theatre. Thank you for loving the videos! 😄
Went there in October, absolutely LOVEDDDF itttt
I saw hamilton west end and I sat in the 37.50 seats and I saw everything, defo get these seats if you can and are desperate to see the show - very worth it!
Recently found your videos and I love them! This series is fab!
Thank you so much Sonia!! I'm really glad you found me 😄
I love Hamilton so much! I'm pretty sure me and my friend are going to see it sometime next year, I think I'm getting tickets for Christmas! My friend's mum's friend is best friends will one of the people who play King George (Mike)
Aw that's amazing!! Hope you manage to see it 😄
This is SUPER helpful! I have these seats booked for May 2023!!! Seen Hamilton before so figured £20 a seat a bargain! Was glad to hear leg room not too bad! Any idea on grand circle box views? Better than slips? Thinking of getting as well ❤
I paid £100 for stalls row B...Ask me sister, I don't know how she did it. But AMAZING. It's worth all the money.
Fantastic!! Bet that was insane to be so close, that's the next spot I want to see the show from 😂
It was amazing to be so close, the actors look at you and it feels like you’re in the story, it’s absolutely worth the money
Thanks for making this, great video :)
I saw it whilst it was in previews and I sat in the stalls in the last row, there was a restricted view. But I was fortunate enough to get more tickets and I’m going to be in stalls row C!! It was a brilliant show and I can’t wait to see it again!!
Ahhhh how exciting!! Hope you have the best time when you see it again 🌟
i went to hamilton in april, it was amazing- the seats we booked were the two inner seats of the royal circle slip, one was £37.50 and one £57.50 no one showed up for the two outer seats which had a much less restricted view so we just moved over. the only thing i missed was when phillip was on the very far right balcony. but overall the view and sound was good and it was an amazing experience!
do you have any info about the lottery tickets? are those in the front row, like in US?
I got a box at Hamilton with a butler! It was a Christmas present from my brother and I had such a great time!
Oo FANCY!! I don't think I'd be able to cope with that level of service, sounds like an amazing Christmas present though! Glad you had a brilliant time and thank you for watching 😄
Hi! tickets are unfortunately very high and there is no discount at the moment. I will come to London for the first time and I definitely want to see Hamilton. Do you think I should buy my ticket at the stalls front or at the royal circle for a quality view?
Love your Videos!!!
Thank you! 😄
Hello! I'm going to London next february, I got the Albert Box tickets. Do you know anything about the view from there? I can express with words how exited I am!
Ana Simonet Hi, I’m planning on going to see the how and booking these seats aswell, I know the view is restricted would you say it’s still worth it?
Thanks
Just bought my own tickets for £37.50, seeing it on the 9th of February. So excited
Wooo nice one!! It's worth the wait 😊
cheapest seats with a clear view are the standing tickets that you can get on the day, costs £12.50. Or enter the lottery and win £10 tickets
My main thought with these videos was to talk about the seats *anyone* can book in advance, so it's fair. Not everyone can queue for standing tickets or stand for a show that's almost 3 hours long, or be able to enter the lottery and come to see the show on a whim. x
I saw the show in New York at the Rodgers Theatre in March whilst visiting from UK. I was not in the cheapest seats in row R of the stalls. Loads of leg room and a cracking view of the stage due to the raked seating. Well worth the 400! dollars for a brilliant show. I think that theatre beats the Victoria for views and leg room.
By the sounds of it, I agree with you! Though I don't think I could ever pay that much for a show haha!
In relation to the overhand and sound, there was no issue also🙂
Thank you so much for sharing this 😄
Just saw TINA: The Tina Turner Musical and i sat in Row R in the stalls with a huge dress circle overhang at the Aldwych Theatre, and it did have an affect on my view of the show, but sound wise was absolutely fantastic. I do feel they could refine the storyline a bit more, but i suppose the Music over comes it.
Glad the sound was okay regardless! I'm intrigued about that show. Not massively fussed about it but as it's me I do feel the need to see it some point soon 😂
Problem is i think alot of people think its trendy. I would not want to see Hamilton if paid or Phantom. Just my view point
Thanks for useful vid. I'm looking at booking some of the Royal Circle slip seats (£37.50). Do you know how restricted they are?
I don't have personal experience of the royal circle slips but I'd imagine you mainly just miss a chunk of the balcony section on either side!
Thanks so much. I booked a Grand Circle seat for November. £37.50. Thursday, what I thought was for an evening but turned out to be a matinee. Now in that awful position of having to try and resell the ticket. Or swap to an evening. Wish me luck! p.s. keep the vlogs coming. Massive fan. Looking forward to Wicked cast change and (like you!) I'm hoping for a newbie newly-discovered lead(s). I think it maybe lends itself to a TV talent contest, but I might be alone there in my thinking...
Hiya, great review. I was wondering if you knew if the Royal circle slip seats would be roughly the same as your experience (am guessing directly underneath you?) Thank you!
Hi, thanks for watching!! I would imagine you still have part of the side-stage cut off but possibly not *as* bad as the Grand Circle slips, and obviously you'll be closer to the stage which would be nice :)
I went to see it a few days ago in row H grand circle which had a slight forehead issue but I was on the edge of my seat most of the time so I could see it 😂
Hi do you know about the royal circle slips because I'm confused to where they are they the normal seating block of the circle but to the far left and right?
Thanks this was very helpful!!
Glad you found it helpful! 😄
Does Lin Manuel Miranda actually have any association with the price of tickets?
I would be shocked if he has no power whatsoever over it!
Are they still selling the souvenir brochure for the original broadway cast? Is there one for the london cast too?
do you think being in upper circle Row E a good seat for first time
i'm sure this video wasn't just an excuse to see it again without judgement....right? ;)
i'm loving this series alot!!
Of couuuuuuurse not 🙄😉
I need to see Hamilton so bad!! 😂
ok honestly £37.50 is so cheap, that's under $50 american dollars. the broadway production has tickets in excess of $800. that's over £700.
I booked my Hamilton tickets for May back in January and I spent like A LOT (200 £).
We are in the stalls, row N (so quite back, I think? I've never been there)...and now I'm starting to get worried because you just pointed out that thing about having the Dress Circle over your head. I would be really really upset if the view wasn't as good as I expect it to be, mainly because I don't think I'll be able to see the show again very soon (considered how much I spent on that ticket and the fact that I'm coming to London all the way from Italy) so, of course, I want my Hamilton experience to be the best. So I was wondering: do you know if Row N in the Stalls has a good view (and by 'good' I mean without the Dress Circle over my head xD)?
Thank you so so much and good job with your videos, I love them!
Lalala La
Hi, I can’t tell you from experience but I use a website called ‘SeatPlan’ where you select the theatre you’re going to and pick the seat you want/have booked and people upload reviews about that seat and even photos too so you can see the view from it- hope that helps :)
Lauren xo thank you so much! ❤️ you're bene really helpful!
Hi, I’ve recently seen Hamilton in London at row S of the stalls (second to the back, so really as far back as you can get!) and, in my opinion, I had a perfect view. I could see everything perfectly, even the tops of heads on the balcony section, and the sound was great as well. I wouldn’t be worried at all - considering that your in row N, which is 5 rows in front of the row I sat in! The show is the most incredible thing, enjoy!
Theo Joly thank you so much! I'm definitely more relaxed now.
Can't wait to see the show! 😭
Hiya!! Really happy to see some of my viewers have beat me to it in responding to you but yes, check SeatPlan, but I think you'll have a fantastic view considering I was Row K the first time I saw it so you'll be just a few rows behind that and I had a great view. Don't worry, and I hope you have a wonderful time when you see the show!! 😄🌟
I sat row s 42 in stalls for me second visit and I didn’t find the view restricted apart from being on the edge of the row. I also sat front row stalls £37.50. I’m seeing the show again August (royal circle slip seat 4) and then g38 in grand circle in September. The slip in royal doesn’t look too bad so hopefully my view is better! However I hope it’s numbered in royal because i paid more than the other seats!!!
Ooo you'll have been in so many spots, love that!! Yeah I should hope the royal circle ones are numbered, if they aren't then just double check the seating plan before you go and check with an usher too to make sure you're definitely in your seat 👍🏼
I'm going next week and worried about fitting in the seat as I'm quite large. Were the seats comfortable?
I'm in grand circle row c seat 38
I preferred the understudy of Burr too!
The best advice I can give for this show is enter the lottery! I got front row seats for £10, it was amazing
Well done on winning!! Bet that was insane 😱
Rukaya Cesar thank you!! It was absolutely insane!!! I loved it!
Ohh so the slips are like the boxes for Broadway?
Hi Rukaya.. not quite Hamilton related.. ish. just got me a ticket for Frozen on Broadway December 27th.. So another Christmas visit is ON!! (if it snows I will cry!!) might try and get a Hamilton ticket also... I'm still confused as to why I didn't like it in London... so maybe I should give it a second chance.. I normally do a 3 or 4 days stay over Christmas ... but I'm worried that there's not much on in December on Broadway that I need to see / haven't seen ... I hope they launch some more exciting new stuff!!!
AHHH I'm so excited for you! It's ridiculously hard for me right now to not plan another NYC trip for this year 😬 In the past week I know of 7 people who have been over there seeing shows every night and it's too much, I'm so jealous! Glad you managed to get a Frozen ticket, and I'm sure lots more exciting stuff will be open by the time you're there 😄
Love your videos, so I'm wondering the minimum amount of tickets you can buy is 2 per person? I'm looking to go next year when they get released in August and it's just such a problem as no one that I know will be willing to pay those extauntionate prices! :(
Yeah sorry I might've confused you there! You can absolutely buy a single ticket but you can't leave a single ticket. For example if there are 3 tickets together and you want to buy 2, it won't let you, but if there are 4 tickets and you buy one, leaving 3, that's fine. Hope that makes sense!!
Rukaya Cesar aha okay, I get you haha! Thank you for clarifying :) Still think the system is not very good though, I'll bare it that in mind when I come to order. Thank you once again :)
I know, it sucks you can't leave one from a pair, really makes it tough if you want to go on a whim!
I’ve sat in the rcslip yesterday I had to lean on the banister the whole time
How was the view, did you miss a lot at the side? That lean isn't the comfiest thing is it 😅
Rukaya Cesar I only missed a bit of the left side (stage right) there was a pole thing in the way but other than that it was a great view
Did she review Rachelle Ann GO?
saw hamilton a few days ago for £175 & someone tried to steal our seats
Odd that the Grand circle row A seat 1 you looked at said £57 because I’m seeing it on Thursday (can’t handle the excitement) in Row A seat 1 and 2 and they were £37.50 each!
Interesting...! Did you book when they first went onsale? I know a lot of the prices have changed from the original onsale!
Rukaya Cesar yeah I booked on the first day of presales so must be that. It was incredible, such an amazing view, really cannot complain for the price I paid!
Great I’m 6,4 and hearing about this leg room problem is worrying me
Wats the website called cus I’m a lost mess
Talking of Hamilton - I had a ticket booked for my Birthday, next November. I managed to get a £75.00 front row ticket. Over recent weeks I’ve become a bit ‘meh’ about the whole idea. I think I’ve got TOO caught up in the hype, & hysteria of this show. I’ve come to the conclusion that I’m really not bothered about seeing the show. I’m not over fussed by the music, story, or look of the show. So, I’ve cancelled my ticket & got a refund. No disrespect to you OR other fans of the show.
X
HucknallRed should have given it to me
That's fair enough!! I think as well the front row for Hamilton isn't fab so you might've made a good decision there haha. Obviously I'm a fan of the show so would always say it's worth seeing but yeah, the external side of the show is quite intense! See it at a hopefully cheaper price in the future when the crazy has died down a little and I hope you enjoy it 😊
I really want to see Marsha as Angelica.
Same, I'm really intrigued as to how she'd play it!
sat in grandcircle box a seats 1+2 the view was terrible don't waste your money
You should do one on Dear Evan Hansen
I think that if you're going to see Hamilton in a seat like that, I would not go. I don't think it's worth it. You barely see anything and I think you don't get the emotions as well as if you were in a good seat.
Please to a lion king cheapest seat or les miserables
Charlie Linton Yes Les Mis please! I've done the $14plus slip seats twice and I would love to hear your thoughts on it
Les Mis is going to be the next one! 😊
ahahahahahahah
What's funny?
