[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]umm it worked pretty well (with other color requirements) for Lin Manuel Mirnda??[/quote]
This is why I am never paying to see Hamilton. I might go if I get a super cheap ticket or watch the stream some day, but I am not in a rush [/quote]

Maybe it isn’t for you at all? You seem to miss the whole concept. Just listen to the sound track and imagine everyone Caucasian. [/quote]
Yeah maybe it’s not for me. But why can’t the school play be something similar and therefore call for a specific race in a specific role?

Yeah, none of this is true about Hamilton, as you can see from the current Broadway cast: https://hamiltonmusical.com/new-york/cast/. Many of the characters are played by actors of different races than the original Broadway cast.[/quote]

?? nearly everyone (other than king george) would appear to be a visually identifiable POC (which includes Asians these days) or a person with a latinx name (many latinx individuals consider themselves POC).  [b]I'm not inclined to view the world this way[/b], but the anti-racism training i recently participated in makes it pop to me.[/quote]

You’re so full of sh*t. The cast of Hamilton represents many races. Considering that actors playing the same character are of different races, it’s clear that there’s no race-specificity in casting.

If you’re just upset that there aren’t a lot of white people in the cast, I don’t know what to tell you.[/quote]
