Off FaceBook: Hamilton, Cirque: Luzia, Jumanji

 

Live from Los Angeles! So I managed to get away for a few days to LA. Of course my friends like to mess with me while I’m here and this time was no different, like having me run into the mother of a couple of my clones. They know in advance where I’m going and doing and can set up some fun and funny scenarios. So, we had tickets for Hamilton in the evening and during the day we took a tour bus. What made this funny? Besides having Tia Carrera sitting in the second row (I had just watched some of Wayne’s World) they had the star of Hamilton leading the tour. I didn’t recognize him during the tour but spotted him as Hamilton in the play! Here’s where it got interesting…he left me a few clues during the tour to piece some things together, you know how I pick up on things. From what I could tell it appears that that the guy who played Hamiltong in the show was none other than Jay Z!!! and Aaron Burr was Puffy Sean Combs or P. Diddy. As a matter of fact the play was loaded with rappers!!!! Most of the play is rapped but man do these guys have voices. I spotted Nicki Manoj who I suspect is Lady Gaga and about twenty other world class singer and rappers. Here’s where it got really good. The next day I caught an uber and the driver, a lanky black guy talked about how he’s a trainer and lost all this weight. One of the ladies mentioned we saw Hamilton. My spider sense went up with this guy and I suspected he was a rapper, planted in the Uber, but not in the show. He was a rapper but I eventually figured out he was in the show and was George Washington. So who was he? It took less than a minute or two to figure out who he was, I figured he was a rapper and he lost 70-90 pounds. Now let me see…who could that be? None other than Notorious BIG or Biggie Smalls!!! Not quite dead and you know what? Not too big a jump to go to Rapper Rick Ross who sure looks to be Biggie Smalls. Also not a jump to find his lady, Missy Elliott in the play. This is tip of the iceberg. I’ll try and piece the rest of it together but it’s full of rappers, and Justin Bieber as one of the white guys and Trey Parker who played King George of England, perfectly cast as his dad is George W. Bush. I’ll fill in people as I study them. Incredible musical!!! I never new these rappers could really sing!!! Oh, Missy Elliott who played the Super Bowl with Katy Perry a couple years ago appears to be Scary Spice of the Spice Girls. Bonus points at the concert…I ran into the Reverend Al Sharpton at the concert. He denied he was Al but a big smile gave him away first. That was a real treat. Al was embedded into NYC history and really grew on me after a while. I wish I took a photo. Also, Richard Pryor had a tremendous voice and I suspect he’s in the play. Some of these people may be listed as deceased, forget all that, they’re not. I spoke with Biggie last night and ran into him again today. He was unnerved that I figured all this out, and more but I got green lighted to put this up. Great group of people…. oh wow!!! Javier Munoz appears to be Drake!

Ed Baruch Also managed to catch Luzia from Cirque du Soleil, my friends messed around with me again but this was pure fun and enjoyment!!! It was brilliant!! It would be worth coming out here to see it. It was largely a Mexican Romance encased as a circus style show. I’d love to see this again. Acting, acrobatics, trapeze, water, flying , spinning, contortionist , juggling, beautiful women, beautiful guys and great Mexican Music and I love horns and Spanish music. The cast was really warm and wonderful. what was missing? Nothing! Absolutely nothing.

Ed Baruch Follow up on Hamilton: Great facial analysis requires systematic study which takes time, patience and vigilance. I believe every great rapper is in this play but not all at the same time, they switch them around so statistically let’s see who’s probably in the show as well as those mentioned: Lil Wayne, Kendrick Lamar, eminem, chance, kanye, yacht, tupac, 50 cent, dr dre, has, gucci, future, 2 chains, young thug, TI, j cole, common, travis, ice cube, ludacris, Lauren Hill. I’m not saying all these people are in the play but this is the group I would start with. I’d throw some money on beyonce being in the play too. No wonder the tickets cost 5 billion dollars each…how else do you get an ensemble like this together. Not related, saw Jumanji and recognized Gary Coleman in it who was hysterically funny as…you got it…the short black guy. Sadly the family went to the bathroom right before he exploded after eating a piece of cake, good sequel to a great film.
