I remember it well, 40 years ago staged to coincide with the bicentennial. What are the odds that it will get revived on Broadway.

1776 gets revived every so often. It was also made into a film with the original Broadway director and most of the original cast and is available in a splendid Blu-ray edition. And the score contains no hip-hop!

1776 is hard to do at the local community level because there are only two female roles in the show.

Sigh.

Give Hamilton a chance. It’s not a hip hop show. It really isn’t....it’s really amazing, well done, beautiful, tragic, poignant, inspiring and informative.

But I’ve said too much already. I know that at FR I am in a minority, and I accept that lot.... :).
