  Rest in peace, Stephen Sondheim. You created wonderful songs, characters and shows, and you'll be greatly missed!

  Speaking of Lin Manuel Miranda, for those who wanted Hamilton cancelled, I think they miss the point if the play. He was not glamorizing philandering considering the reactions he showed with Eliza and the community. <br><br>Also, the founding fathers were a) slave owners and b) philanderers. If the “characters” were not philanderers, that would be historically inaccurate. <br><br>Miranda gave a new perspective to the people who as flawed as they were did great things that formed a country. It also made sense he hired people of color because Hamilton was mixed race as well so it became a small commentary on that. It was also a way to react to the (lack of a better term) complaints that people had at the time of not getting representation they needed. <br>Very poorly explained, but I think we should focus on the positives more than that one issue with it.

  &quot;Come From Away&quot; is one of my favourite new musicals. It did a fantastic job of portraying a tragic event, and showing how it effected multiple people and their loved ones, with appropriate sensitivity and care. 💕
