Aside from those , the other major divergence with watchingHamiltonon Disney+versus viewing it in a theater is that you do n’t necessitate to wait for the pause to take a toilet or refreshments give away . The musical ’s runtime is around 163 minutes , and if you go to see the musical live , the pause inHamiltoncomes roughly 1 hour 15 minutes into the show . The final song of Act 1 is , fittingly enough , " Non - Stop " , and while you do n’t get 15 transactions as you would in the theater , Disney+ has factor out this in : at the end of the song is an intermission countdown of one instant .

" Non - Stop " and the subsequent rupture mark a material turning point in the narrative , as it shifts from Alexander Hamilton , George Washington et al direct the fight from American independency , and into the questions of how that governing body in reality works in Act 2 ; " Non - block " not only countersink this up , but also further establishes the rivalry between Hamilton and Aaron Burr , and the non - stop study ethic that will also lead to further problems for Alexander .
Since Act 2 brings in a bunch of newHamiltoncharacters , play by actors who appeared as unlike ones in Act 2 ( such as Daveed Diggs swapping out Marquis de Lafayette for Thomas Jefferson , or Jasmine Cephas Jones trading Peggy Schuyler for Maria Reynolds ) , then it further enhance the need for an intermission , attend as a clean break between the two halves of the story . Of course , it ’s not essential , and the runtime is n’t too much that a lengthy prisonbreak is all necessary - and conversely , the beauty of it being on Disney+ is that you may pause at any time you like - but if you ’re striving for as much authenticity as possible , then after " Non - Stop " is the time to take a faulting fromHamilton .
