Theme:
Hamilton tells the story of forgotten American Founding Father Alexander Hamilton and his ascent out of poverty and to power against the backdrop of the American War of Independence.
Explanation:
All of the evidence I have is from the songs they sing.
Forgotten American founding father supporting evidence
Song: Alexander Hamilton
"His enemies destroyed his rep America forgot him"
Song: Who lives, Who dies, Who tells your story
"Every other founding fathers' story gets told every other founding father gets to grow old"
"And when you're gone, who remembers your name? Who keeps your flame? Who tells your story?"
"And when my time is up, have I done enough? Will they tell your story?"
Ascent out of poverty supporting evidence
Song: Alexander Hamilton
"How does a bas***d, orphan, son of a who*e And a Scotsman dropped in the middle of a forgotten spot In the Caribbean by providence impoverished In squalor, grow up to be a hero and a scholar?"
"Another immigrant comin' up from the bottom"
Hamilton's power against the backdrop of the American War of Independence supporting evidence
Song: My shot
"we are—meant to be...
A colony that runs independently"
"So there will be a revolution in this century Enter me!"
Song: Wait for it
"Hamilton doesn't hesitate he exhibits no restraint he takes and he takes and he takes and he keeps winning anyway he changes the game he plays and he raises the stakes."
That's some of the evidence I found. Anyway, this was really fun to research a play I love and listen to the songs again and it was a nice break from my school work.
