I was to see @HamiltonMusical at @CanadasNAC @BACTouring today, circled on my calendar for over 16 months.

Postponed of course ( #PhysicalDistancing), but - hear me out - as I mildly grieve and then post like twenty Hamilton tweets - that would be enough. https://twitter.com/austnyan/status/1092584500243116032?s=20

I'm incredibly thankful to @Lin_Manuel & @disneyplus for bringing us #Hamilfilm in July - BUT what if you (like me) can't #waitforit?

Here are some #Hamilton things I've found & enjoyed to help tide you over til then. Hope you enjoy them too!

It's the TEN COOL ATTACHMENTS.

[Note, here are the "obvious" things not on my list]

Original Broadway Cast recording
Alexander Hamilton by Ron Chernow
Lin's 2009 White House performance


+ Mixtape, Instrumentals, #hamildrops, #hamildemos, #Ham4Ham & the #Hamiltome.

NUMBER ONE

#Podcast recommendation! @TheHamilcast hosted by @GillianWithaG will provide you with deep dives into all things Hamilton.

Coolest eps incl @scottwasserman1 on #Hamilton's sound effects + programming. There are things I can never unhear...

NUMBER TWO

@ho_howard has a great video series on How #Hamilton Works - great for those looking for a bit more insight into the composition and musicality that drive the musical.

His videos cover chord progressions, theatre references, and much more!

NUMBER THREE

If you're appreciating all the sign language interpreters during #COVID19 press conferences who have to translate #bunchofyahoos & #speakingmoistly on the spot - you'll enjoy seeing Hamilton in #ASL!

Among the best: by @sjtubert.

NUMBER FOUR

Check out your favourite #Hamilton song on @Genius:

The thorough annotations are absolutely insightful - some by @Lin_Manuel himself! It continues to surprise me how deep/connected the lyrics are.

Especially relevant as the #ClassOf2020 MDs enter residency in challenging times (who've had much more cancelled than a show). We're cheering for you now!

That's all!

[not really, but I'll stop here for everyone's sake]

We will now return to your regular scheduled programming of tweets on microbiome science, med advocacy, politics, and more regularly spaced-out @HamiltonMusical gifs...
