that’s what i always think, she sees the audience and realises that they have been remembered and she did tell his story well and it’s such an amazing moment x
Yeah, I thought it was obvious but then I read people asking about it on reddit, it’s nice audience interaction type thing and it makes you feel like you were apart of it in a way.
Riiiight??? 🥺🥺🥺🥰🥰🥰 That kicked me in the feels so hard... especially since my one and only daughter is 3 so that really touched me. Leslie is such a sweetheart.
Casting an absolute sweetheart like Leslie as the show’s “villain” was a stroke of genius. He adds so much depth and sympathy to the character because it’s impossible to hate him!
I literally can't believe that THE Angelica Schuyler isn't getting any of the roles she auditions for post-Hamilton. Have you SEEN her?! She sings like both an angel AND a badass, she is passionate, an amazing actress and that woman can DANCE in those PERIOD DRESSES AND SHOES?! Bruh the live acting world is WHACK for not hiring her
Yeah, she played Quell. She's part of the main cast. And even if the old Takeshi actor didn't reprise his role, Renee Elise Goldsberry still was on season 2.
8:59 I'm surprised she says of acting roles that "you get what you're supposed to have." Not exactly the message of the times with marginalised groups across the entertainment industries (and far beyond) pushing for fair representation. And unfortunately being "prayerful" isn't going to change anything, except provide comfort that every lost role was divine will.
Daveed is a pretty well known underground rapper. So I doubt he was that desperate. Lin actually chose Daveed to audition. Daveed wasnt even thinking of doing theatre. He was probably nervous but he was actually chosen by lin to play the part.
Or it's like how some people feel after being on a boat for a few hours. They can still feel the waves even when they're standing on solid ground. (it might be just me)
Last night I watched Hamilton on Disney+. I said to my grandma: “I feel like my soul belongs on broadway but my voice doesn’t”. She responded: “welp, I guess I agree with that”
"My name is Lin-Manuel Miranda" "My name is Thomas Kail" "I'm Daveed Diggs" "Christopher Jackson' "I'm Renee Elise Goldsbury" "I'm Leslie Odom Jr." "I'm Jasmine Cephas Jones" "My name is Oke." "I'm Anthony Ramos" "I'm Phillipa" *And no one else was in the zoom where it happened*
BAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAAHAHHAAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAA THIS COMMENT IS UNDERRATED! HAHAHAHAHAHAHHAAHHAAHAHHA
I would of like told my entire class to behave for once and if they asked why I would say"BECUASE THE TEACHER IS DAVEED DIGGS AND HES THE BEST RAPPER EVER AND LIKE HES AMAZING"
When Oke said that he cried in "Quite Uptown", I always think the song after that, "Election of 1800", is him having at least a few seconds on wiping his tears as James Madison.
the fact that renee said she doesnt get most parts she auditioned is so shocking, yet so true. shes such an amazing actress, but at the end its such a competitive world and it has little to do with your ability and more what the director envisions.
I met Daveed Diggs in 2015 after seeing Hamilton and he was sooo nice. Its such a long and intense performance and I’m sure he was so exhausted but he still took the time to sign everyone’s playbill and took pictures with everyone who wanted one. It was cold, it was late, and he was tired but he didn’t show it and I will ALWAYS appreciate his kind attitude ❤️❤️

I’m just angry that Renée wasn’t and STILL DOESN’T get roles. When I listen to satisfied I still get blown away, and of course we all know the reason why😒
Noo I think it's just like reality. Lots of super famous talented people audition for things but don't get every role still! Renee does still get lots of roles she's been on altered carbon and her career is probably taking off right now!!
leafire3 yeah maybe, but the truth is black actors on Broadway in general just don’t get as much roles as white actors. Of course, I’m not saying white actors don’t deserve their jobs, or that they aren’t as talented, but if you look at the statistics, it’s really heartbreaking how black actors and people of color in general just don’t get as many opportunities as their white peers
Yea but some of the OBC meet together separately Like Lin sometimes posts pictures on his Twitter so that’s how I know And cause sometimes they get jobs together (ex: Leslie Odom Jr and Daveed Diggs are doing Central Park together) And Jasmine Jones and Anthony Ramos are engaged, possible married, so they see each other everyday lol
I always interpreted Eliza’s gasp as her realizing her story had been told. I see it this way because Eliza outlived everyone she ever loved, telling their stories but having no one to tell her’s.
"1 Peter 4:8 love each other deeply because love covers over a multitude of sins! Remember to love even when people might not love you cause love is so powerful 😊
Solid Gold in this video: Jazzy scatting “Chris, would you just stop talking! I didn’t ask for your opinion man!” Lin talking about the world and it’s flaws around Hamilton changing. Daveed’s shirt and Anthony’s hat “We wasn’t making any money!” “Can I get an amen? Amen.” “substitute teaching kids is basically just making sure that the kids don’t die” Satisfied screwing _everyone_ up. “I’ll be with my popcorn.” *chews* “All caps.” “All caps.” “All caps.” Leslie praying for his daughter.
Satisfied consistently blows my mind every time I think about everything they do in that number, and it’s definitely one of the first things I mention to people when I talk about how amazing it is.
I loved getting a substitute in science because we just watched bill bye on our topic/unit and the sub either didn’t care or didn’t know because some of us also had snacks even though our safety contract says no food in science.
As an actual teacher- yup that's all I expect of my subs. If they actually teach, I'm shocked. Oftentimes I hope they don't try to teach because they never do it right! Through no fault of their own, but nobody knows how to teach everything without specific instruction
I literally love how they’re all just theatre kids, but in adult bodies. They’re so quirky and cool. 😂 Edit: Just to clear some stuff up. This was not an insult guys. I myself am a theatre kid and was just comparing them to how some of many theatre kids act. Very sorry if this came off as if I were insulting them or making fun of them.
Aww man. It’s not really easy to shake for some. Once you’ve been a theatre kid (at any age) it kinda pulls at your heart. I love how much they embrace it too!
“By the end of the show I had said 500 prayers for my little girl and she wasn’t even here yet.” Geez wow thanks.... I wasn’t planning on crying today but here we are
why is no one talking about when Lin said "If you don't survive the act, you're not getting to go to the second act" i don't know why but this killed me lmaooooo
Anthonys laugh after Oak said “Some people are even doing it on stage” You just knowwwwww there’s a story there. There’s a story and I want to knowwwww.
I was laughing so hard--- I can't believe that's true! I would think they have to focus so hard to get the blocking, choreography, lines, notes, and facial expressions RIGHT
@@rhemacreel1339 probably after doing it every night for months it just becomes so automatic that they can be singing their hearts out while thinking "mmm, I think I'll have Chinese for dinner tonight"
In "Dear Theodosia" I'm ALWAYS thinking about their fates. Philip dies in a duel with a devil, and Theodosia gets lost at sea. Both of their fathers outlived them. That may just be my depression taking over my train of thought, but ever since I saw the death of Philip and read about Theodosia, I've never been able to hear that song the same way.
I like how Lin mentions slavery here. A lot of people say that we shouldn't support Hamilton because he owned slaves or something like that, but it's mentioned and Lin made sure it was known. It fills my heart to know that no one is turning a blind eye to history.
Not trying to prove you wrong or anything, just wanting to share a bit of what I've recently learned which no one will listen to since I have no hamilfan friends... :) A. Hamilton himself didn't actually own any slaves and he supported the abolitionist movement. Still, in the time that he practiced law, there were cases where slaves had to be moved between owners, etc. that he was involved in. Also, his mother did own 2 slaves which he did not inherit due to his being conceived out of wedlock. Hope you found this interesting! I'm a huge nerd lol 😅😂
Cindy F he bought and gave slaves to his in-laws and almost inherited slaves when his mother passed, but since he was illegitimate he wasn’t allowed to have them. It was only until later in his life did he start advocating for the freedom of slaves.
A lot of the real people played in the musical here were white slave owners/traders (most, in fact), but they did their best to tone down the racism but still acknowledge it, which I think was really powerful. I'm just glad they didn't ignore it or pretend it didn't happen.
Someone said at the end when Eliza sees Lin, he’s no longer playing Alexander, he’s himself and Eliza gasps when she sees that he told her story and she feels like it’s ok to go into the light now AND I HAVENT BEEN THE SAME SINCE lol
Jasmine: I loved singing "Say no to this" Anthony: *calm down she's just singing a song and making out with ur boss nothing to get pissed about stay calm*
Why are the things that Leslie says always so profound and meaningful? Like seriously, his stories about "The Story of Tonight" and "Dear Theodosia" are so heart-warming. He's such a great speaker.
About Eliza's gasp, I saw a lot of people saying Lin was playing himself and showing Eliza that her story was told. It's a really powerful message and I am here for it.
Amber Mankins The main theory is she saw the audience and she realised/found out that Hamilton and her story had been told and would go down in history. Or that it’s her like last breath, the transition into death, but no one is really sure because she sees Hamilton before her final gasp which would mean she was already dead.
Lin said that the ending where Eliza gasps was up for interpretation. The most popular theory is that it’s Lin meeting Eliza and he shows her that her legacy has lived on and her, and Alexander’s, story is being told.
Lin: "If there's anything political about the show..." Me: Dude, the entire show is politics. Edit: Oh my god thanks for 180 likes, I've never had this many!
I really like what lin said about how most of the characters in hamilton have done terrible things in real life, that's a important reminder because I have seen too much hamilton fans idolizing these characters
I think the whole point is that these men of color are playing these "white heroes." There's an implied commentary there. We're not supposed to think they're perfect. We're supposed to know they weren't and feel some kind of way about their portrayal in Hamilton. I saw an interview with some of the cast members talking about how it was painful to play these roles who had owned their ancestors, but it was a kind of re-owning the history of their country as well.
@@rysikoos2053 Ugh, I can't find it! It was years ago that I saw that, and it wasn't the main focus of the interview- it just seems way more relevant now! I'll keep looking
as a black girl in musical theater this show has means so much too me. u normally never see many people of color in broadway plays and having a POC right the play and most of the cast are POCs fills me up with so much passion and hope, that one day i could be one of those people on broadway. Edit: HOLY MAC N CHEESE THX 4 THE LIKES💘💘💘
"One of the biggest themes of the show is 'you dont get to control how you're remembered' and the show doesn't escape that fate either. Different things within it will rise or fall based on where we are"
The question about crying during the play (16:13) - I love that When Madison comes on stage after “it’s quiet uptown” he’s crying. The way he says “Please!” When Jefferson asks “Can we get back to politics?” Always makes me smile while I’m ugly crying.
Renée is a literal queen on this Earth. Even watching her on this Zoom call she oozes talent and charisma. She deserves so many future roles, I would watch a movie or TV show just for her!
Even my mom said in the literal first minute of her singing in The Schuyler sisters that she has an amazing voice when I watched the Hamilton film with her
I realized 3 fundamental things at the exact same time - 1: this cast was sent by whatever creator you believe in. 2. Daveed's shirt and Anthony's hat...that is all. 3. Leslie's prayers for his future daughter confirmed why Dear Theodosia is my personal favorite.
Fun “Peggy” Aka Magarita Schuyler Fact: During the Revolution the Schuyler household in upstate New York was raided by Tories. The sisters ran upstairs but realized that The youngest Schuyler child was still downstairs in a cradle. Peggy ran down to get her but ran into the Tories. They asked her where the Colonel is. She cooly replied that he had “Gone to alarm the town”. The Tories afraid of incoming troops fled. Some say that a local tribe who had accompanied the Tories threw a tomahawk past Peggy to try and intimidate her; but it flew past her to the banister.
17:38 had me dying, especially when oak and daveed outed him for having his phone on stage and ant talks about guesstimating which song they should order dinner... and ant's wheeze when oak says "some people were even doing that on stage". also 16:51 "please god, let there be a tear! let there be something in there tonight!"
I'm kind of salty that Phillipa didn't answer the Eliza question. I understand why Lin and Thomas answered but it would have been cool to have THE OG ELIZA answer what that gasp meant to her.
She's given the same non-answer as Lin did elsewhere, so I assume her feelings on it are personal. Some actors don't like revealing their internal process, because it makes them feel vulnerable or defensive. Even her admitting that after countless performances she struggled to appear sad on cue might disappoint some people. A little mystery allows everyone to have their own experience/opinion.
@@disabledisney Madison was constantly sick with multiple illnesses and it played a big part in how people viewed him and his character irl which is why he was characterized similarly in the show as a soft-spoken man with a really bad cough
Seymon Solomon Yeah that’s like all I know, so I was wondering why that hits differently now. Although while typing this, it just hit me- COVID19 😅 Thanks though!
I always thought Eliza's gasp at the end, was the moment she died. She just said that she lived another 50 years, that she told everyone's story and built the orphanage. She led the very best life she could, and then took her final breath/gasp. Felt like closure to me, and I liked that. She could finally be at peace x
When I first watched (yesterday) I believed Eliza was seeing Alexander in heaven and being reunited But I see the reason why the theory of her seeing the audience is valid as well. While she has just talked about living for 50 more years and what she did in that time - she (and the other characters) also just talked about making sure Alex’s story is told Eliza seeing the audience would mean she saw that the story of Alexander, hers, everyone involved in their lives’ stories were told. Both I find to be valid and equally likely especially since LMM and TK do not confirm or deny
@@brimiki I think it's because it's something that doesn't need a right or wrong answer. It's for Eliza, and only for Eliza. It's also for the audience to be left on something unknown, and unconfirmed, unlike most of history.
Okieriete, about Helpless and Satisfied: I really wanna try doing that number now no prep no practice to see if we- Anthony: *You're gonna be by yourself brother*
I don’t know about anyone else, but my favorite scene was Phillip’s death because Alexander and Eliza are holding him and hushing him, singing with him, and I realized that yes it was acting, but a real person had to go through that and it completely changed my perspective on the founding fathers’ lives. I think one of the cast members (I think Daveed) said that we learn about them as statues and often forget that they were young men like us living sometimes very tragic lives. Also, I always thought Eliza’s gasp at the end was a combination of grief for her husband and a worry if she has done her part that she will be able to make a difference and make Alexander’s legacy last.
imagine walking into class, expecting a normal substitute teacher, and it’s Daveed Diggs
I would probably just burst into tears of joy immediately
I’d die
i'd be like, "uuHHMMM" and i would have to act normal for the whole class lmao
*Lafayette introduction intensifies*
"Hello Mr. Brown"
So weird that Daveed gets uncomfortable singing because every time he was on screen, I was always so amazed by him.

Dude daveed is the best!!!
IKR
i was the 1000 like. ur welcome ;)
Randy Joe lol. Thanks.
I think Eliza sees the audience when she gasps. She sees she was able to preserve his legacy
I love this interpretation!
That's what I like to think too
that’s what i always think, she sees the audience and realises that they have been remembered and she did tell his story well and it’s such an amazing moment x
Yeah, I thought it was obvious but then I read people asking about it on reddit, it’s nice audience interaction type thing and it makes you feel like you were apart of it in a way.

He’s barely even a villain in the play, which makes it infinitely more tragic.

Talk about it. Seriously.

i’m not ashamed to admit his talking about it brought me to tears 💜
I came to the comments for this reason. It was moving and something I think I’ll look at different every time I rewatch it
That one was one of the one that impacted me the most too. Everytime I hear or sing it I feel happy.
When Eliza came to see Philip in the hospital she was wearing black. That must mean she was at Peggy's funeral.
Peggy actually died 8 months before Phillip, but she was still mourning for her, which is why she was wearing black.
They used to wear black for a year after someone died

I always interpreted Eliza’s gasp as her realizing her story had been told. I see it this way because Eliza outlived everyone she ever loved, telling their stories but having no one to tell her’s.
that’s what i imagine too. she gasps bc she see’s that not only her story is being told but everyone’s story is being told

“Substitute teaching...which is just making sure kids don’t die...when you’re there”
Everyone: Oh
I was a substitute teacher for 4 years. This is gold
I loved getting a substitute in science because we just watched bill bye on our topic/unit and the sub either didn’t care or didn’t know because some of us also had snacks even though our safety contract says no food in science.
As an actual teacher- yup that's all I expect of my subs. If they actually teach, I'm shocked. Oftentimes I hope they don't try to teach because they never do it right! Through no fault of their own, but nobody knows how to teach everything without specific instruction
Lol my husband, as a guitar teacher, had a good laugh at that. My brother in law sub's a lot and would probably concur lol.
I literally love how they’re all just theatre kids, but in adult bodies. They’re so quirky and cool. 😂
Edit: Just to clear some stuff up. This was not an insult guys. I myself am a theatre kid and was just comparing them to how some of many theatre kids act. Very sorry if this came off as if I were insulting them or making fun of them.
Aww man. It’s not really easy to shake for some. Once you’ve been a theatre kid (at any age) it kinda pulls at your heart. I love how much they embrace it too!

*plays Illuminati theme*
In "Dear Theodosia" I'm ALWAYS thinking about their fates. Philip dies in a duel with a devil, and Theodosia gets lost at sea. Both of their fathers outlived them. That may just be my depression taking over my train of thought, but ever since I saw the death of Philip and read about Theodosia, I've never been able to hear that song the same way.
WAIT WHAT
@@Wolfpossum.yeah. It’s devastating
I like how Lin mentions slavery here. A lot of people say that we shouldn't support Hamilton because he owned slaves or something like that, but it's mentioned and Lin made sure it was known. It fills my heart to know that no one is turning a blind eye to history.
Not trying to prove you wrong or anything, just wanting to share a bit of what I've recently learned which no one will listen to since I have no hamilfan friends... :) A. Hamilton himself didn't actually own any slaves and he supported the abolitionist movement. Still, in the time that he practiced law, there were cases where slaves had to be moved between owners, etc. that he was involved in. Also, his mother did own 2 slaves which he did not inherit due to his being conceived out of wedlock. Hope you found this interesting! I'm a huge nerd lol 😅😂
Cindy F he actually became abolishionist later in life. He traded slaves for other people even though he didn’t technically own any himself
Cindy F he bought and gave slaves to his in-laws and almost inherited slaves when his mother passed, but since he was illegitimate he wasn’t allowed to have them. It was only until later in his life did he start advocating for the freedom of slaves.
A lot of the real people played in the musical here were white slave owners/traders (most, in fact), but they did their best to tone down the racism but still acknowledge it, which I think was really powerful. I'm just glad they didn't ignore it or pretend it didn't happen.

I JUST commented about this interpretation, it's my favorite by far
Someone said at the end when Eliza sees Lin, he’s no longer playing Alexander, he’s himself and Eliza gasps when she sees that he told her story and she feels like it’s ok to go into the light now AND I HAVENT BEEN THE SAME SINCE lol
@@staceyfata2972 - An *excellent* addition, thank you ma'am
Very good answer, but I read the script and it is actually many years later after Alexander Hamilton Died, and she saw him and realized she was dead.

About Eliza's gasp, I saw a lot of people saying Lin was playing himself and showing Eliza that her story was told. It's a really powerful message and I am here for it.
It really is
I was told that too
@@aceofspades2201 maybe, but either way it still makes me cry every time
WHY DIDN'T THEY LET PHILLIPA TELL US WHAT THE GASP MEANT TO HER ELIZA THOUGH!!!!!!!
I thought the same thing! What did she see when she gasped?!
Amber Mankins
The main theory is she saw the audience and she realised/found out that Hamilton and her story had been told and would go down in history. Or that it’s her like last breath, the transition into death, but no one is really sure because she sees Hamilton before her final gasp which would mean she was already dead.
She talked about it once in an interview.
Lin said that the ending where Eliza gasps was up for interpretation. The most popular theory is that it’s Lin meeting Eliza and he shows her that her legacy has lived on and her, and Alexander’s, story is being told.
When she turns around it’s not Hamilton holding her hand it’s Lin Manuel showing Eliza that her stories got told and she was shocked
It’s so perfect that Leslie had a daughter and Lin had a son. 😭
i never knew daveed cried during it’s quiet uptown bc the scene after that he’s all “😃”

I really like what lin said about how most of the characters in hamilton have done terrible things in real life, that's a important reminder because I have seen too much hamilton fans idolizing these characters
Right I'm glad he didn't hide the fact that Hamilton wasn't perfect like most productions do with their main characters.
That was great! More people need to keep in mind that the characters in the show are fictionalized versions of the real people🙌🏻
I think the whole point is that these men of color are playing these "white heroes." There's an implied commentary there. We're not supposed to think they're perfect. We're supposed to know they weren't and feel some kind of way about their portrayal in Hamilton. I saw an interview with some of the cast members talking about how it was painful to play these roles who had owned their ancestors, but it was a kind of re-owning the history of their country as well.
Kelsey Bisset do you think you could link the interview? I’m interested in hearing the cast address that!
@@rysikoos2053 Ugh, I can't find it! It was years ago that I saw that, and it wasn't the main focus of the interview- it just seems way more relevant now! I'll keep looking
as a black girl in musical theater this show has means so much too me. u normally never see many people of color in broadway plays and having a POC right the play and most of the cast are POCs fills me up with so much passion and hope, that one day i could be one of those people on broadway.

"One of the biggest themes of the show is 'you dont get to control how you're remembered' and the show doesn't escape that fate either. Different things within it will rise or fall based on where we are"
I don't think the show could've be put any better.
Can I get an Amen?
The question about crying during the play (16:13) - I love that When Madison comes on stage after “it’s quiet uptown” he’s crying. The way he says “Please!” When Jefferson asks “Can we get back to politics?” Always makes me smile while I’m ugly crying.
Renée is a literal queen on this Earth. Even watching her on this Zoom call she oozes talent and charisma. She deserves so many future roles, I would watch a movie or TV show just for her!
I love that you describe her as “oozes talent” because that is an exact description and extremely fitting for her
Even my mom said in the literal first minute of her singing in The Schuyler sisters that she has an amazing voice when I watched the Hamilton film with her
I'm so in awe of her she is absolutely amazing
I realized 3 fundamental things at the exact same time -
1: this cast was sent by whatever creator you believe in.
2. Daveed's shirt and Anthony's hat...that is all.
3. Leslie's prayers for his future daughter confirmed why Dear Theodosia is my personal favorite.
Anthony’s hat omgggg
WHAT DOES HIS HAT SAY
@@bellaward7528 it has the year 1619 on it, which is historically documented to have been the first time slaves were brought to the colonies.
Fun “Peggy” Aka Magarita Schuyler Fact: During the Revolution the Schuyler household in upstate New York was raided by Tories. The sisters ran upstairs but realized that The youngest Schuyler child was still downstairs in a cradle. Peggy ran down to get her but ran into the Tories. They asked her where the Colonel is. She cooly replied that he had “Gone to alarm the town”. The Tories afraid of incoming troops fled.
Some say that a local tribe who had accompanied the Tories threw a tomahawk past Peggy to try and intimidate her; but it flew past her to the banister.
That is so cool
Dang that’s awesome
peggy is such a badass
Eliza Hamilton
I couldn’t agree more
I wished we could've seen that within the show. It would've been nice to see Peggy one last time (no pun intended) before her death
17:38 had me dying, especially when oak and daveed outed him for having his phone on stage and ant talks about guesstimating which song they should order dinner... and ant's wheeze when oak says "some people were even doing that on stage". also 16:51 "please god, let there be a tear! let there be something in there tonight!"
“I will send a fully armed battalion, to remind you of my love.” Hits different now

Yo true, true
I'm kind of salty that Phillipa didn't answer the Eliza question. I understand why Lin and Thomas answered but it would have been cool to have THE OG ELIZA answer what that gasp meant to her.
She's given the same non-answer as Lin did elsewhere, so I assume her feelings on it are personal. Some actors don't like revealing their internal process, because it makes them feel vulnerable or defensive. Even her admitting that after countless performances she struggled to appear sad on cue might disappoint some people. A little mystery allows everyone to have their own experience/opinion.

@@disabledisney Madison was constantly sick with multiple illnesses and it played a big part in how people viewed him and his character irl which is why he was characterized similarly in the show as a soft-spoken man with a really bad cough

@@disabledisney Took me a minute to figure it out lmaoo it's a covid joke

I always thought Eliza's gasp at the end, was the moment she died. She just said that she lived another 50 years, that she told everyone's story and built the orphanage. She led the very best life she could, and then took her final breath/gasp. Felt like closure to me, and I liked that. She could finally be at peace x
that’s what i choose to believe as well, because it gives her character in the musical a fulfilling arc
When I first watched (yesterday) I believed Eliza was seeing Alexander in heaven and being reunited
But I see the reason why the theory of her seeing the audience is valid as well. While she has just talked about living for 50 more years and what she did in that time - she (and the other characters) also just talked about making sure Alex’s story is told
Eliza seeing the audience would mean she saw that the story of Alexander, hers, everyone involved in their lives’ stories were told.
Both I find to be valid and equally likely especially since LMM and TK do not confirm or deny
@@brimiki I think it's because it's something that doesn't need a right or wrong answer. It's for Eliza, and only for Eliza. It's also for the audience to be left on something unknown, and unconfirmed, unlike most of history.

The famous lines of Thomas Jefferson
I don’t know about anyone else, but my favorite scene was Phillip’s death because Alexander and Eliza are holding him and hushing him, singing with him, and I realized that yes it was acting, but a real person had to go through that and it completely changed my perspective on the founding fathers’ lives. I think one of the cast members (I think Daveed) said that we learn about them as statues and often forget that they were young men like us living sometimes very tragic lives.
Also, I always thought Eliza’s gasp at the end was a combination of grief for her husband and a worry if she has done her part that she will be able to make a difference and make Alexander’s legacy last.
Question: What does Eliza's gasp mean?
Answer: Yes, but no
Where?
When she turns around it’s not Hamilton holding her hand it’s Lin Manuel showing Eliza that her stories got told and she was shocked
