I like musicals generally, but I really can't take to this one and I haven't finished watching it. I just had to switch it off. Has anyone else seen it?

No I haven't, what is it you don't like?

I couldn't take to Les Mis or Westside Story.

I don't really know what I don;t like about it. It's just grating on me. I'm finding it irritating rather than entertaining.

Les Mis is the only stage show I've ever seen and left the theatre without a remnant of a tune in my head. It wasn't until Susan Boyle sang 'I Dreamed a Dream' that the music (that particular bit) registered with me.

West Side Story I love - both on stage and on screen. The new film is just lovely too.

Is it maybe the hype? I always feel really let down when I watched something that is so hyped up and I don't 'love' it?

You could be right. It's received such rave reviews but the reality for me falls far short.

I live not far from Hamilton and it's nothing to make a song and dance about.

I felt like that about Chicago, everyone I knew went to see it at the westend when I worked in London and went on and on about it. I walked out feeling really 'meh' about it.

Watched it a few years ago and loved it! I think at different times in your life it will mean different things to you.

I haven't finished watching it a first time - I doubt very much it'll get a second chance. I think I'll just live without it.

My daughter took me to Edinburgh to see Hamilton as a birthday present. Left me cold I'm afraid. Daugter was raving about it but I have seen much better over the years. Wouldn't want to repeat the experience.
