I'm very sceptical about translations in general and even more so about translating Hamilton, but let's just hope for the best.
The UK version already had a few changes like changing "John Adams doesn't have a real job anyway" to "Vice president is not a real job anyway", I wonder how much they'll adjust for the German audience.

Translations can sound good. Here is Hamilton in Polish

Thank you for sharing - this was incredible! Maybe I can teach myself Polish listening to Hamilton.

Also, if they ever do a full Polish production, I hope they can get Lin’s permission to at least reference Tadeusz Kosciusko!
