Her sisters sadly sing a reprise of “The Schuyler Sisters” without her, with Alexander chiming in morosely. Unfortunately, Peggy fades to the side as Angelica and Eliza mingle with Alexander it’s explained that she dies between acts, so her actress can play Maria Reynolds. As long as she’s present, Alexander is faithful to Eliza, who tethers him to common sense. Alexander treats her like a little sister, as he should, while Lafayette ignores her in favor of Angelica. She also is the only Schuyler sister considered the baby no officer flirts with her onstage. She thinks beyond what is possible and about consequences. Alexander provides that mind, flirting with the older two sisters and becoming a confidante to Peggy. They do agree that they’re looking for intellect and a mind at work, and are finding joy in the middle of war. In their titular song, they hold hands as they assess that they live in the “greatest city in the world.” Peggy doesn’t want to wander so late or fight in the war, Angelica wants to share Hamilton with Eliza as she jokes, and Eliza laughingly refuses. It’s important that the girls don’t agree all the time but they love each other. It’s no surprise that the Tony Awards in 2016 would close with this song.

Peggy is worried about curfew and their father, General Schuyler, going to war and fighting for the country. We first meet the three girls in Hamilton when they’re exploring New York late in the day.

Twin sisters Sunshine and Margot are as different as chalk and cheese, but what they do have in common is a complete lack of luck when it comes to love.
