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

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)[reply]

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)[reply]

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)[reply]

add the following paragraph to Concept-Critical analysis and scholarship:

Philosopher Michael Sandel critiques Hamilton for its oversimplistic multiculturalism, avoidance of discussions on Hamilton's financial doctrines, and a blind embrace of liberal meritocracy in his 2022 edition of Democracy's Discontent.[1] Harvard intellectual historian Hansong Li, in his review of Hamilton in the Shanghai Review of Books, praises the musical for its innovations but critiques it for erecting a heroic myth to satisfy both economic elites and cultural warriors, which ultimately fails to unite a deeply divided American public.[2] 199.94.1.17 (talk) 14:59, 13 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Would like to add to the article a section[edit]

The page is locked, but how can I add a section to the article about how many online bloggers have discussed how much despite many people claiming to have enjoyed this musical, that when asked discreetly about the musical 79% of respondents to the question said the they hated the musical, and that in the words of many, "it sucked ass!" 47.149.186.81 (talk) 02:22, 16 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

And that, is why the page is locked. Mark E (talk) 09:44, 16 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]
