HAMILTON is the story of America then, told by America now. Featuring a score that blends hip-hop, jazz, R&B and Broadway, HAMILTON has taken the story of American founding father Alexander Hamilton and created a revolutionary moment in theatre--a musical that has had a profound impact on culture, politics, and education.
With book, music, and lyrics by Lin-Manuel Miranda, direction by Thomas Kail, choreography by Andy Blankenbuehler, and musical supervision and orchestrations by Alex Lacamoire, HAMILTON is based on Ron Chernow's acclaimed biography. It has won Tony®, Grammy®, and Olivier Awards, the Pulitzer Prize for Drama, and an unprecedented special citation from the Kennedy Center Honors.
A compelling way to learn about history! The singing was so moving. Live performance trumps on screen performance any day.
I love theater, and I’ve seen most of the popular musicals. In my opinion Hamilton is the best ever! I saw it the first time in 2018, and I’ve seen it 2 or 3 times on television. This wasn’t the strongest company, but it was still entertaining. The orchestra was excellent and the dancers were very good.
We were in obstructed view seats, but I still was able to see most of the stage. The actresses playing Eliza and Angelica had incredible voices and might even have outperformed their original cast counterparts. The actor playing Lafayette was absolutely amazing. Overall the acoustics were outstanding, and even the raising of the chandelier was turned into a performance. I loved every minute of it.
This was my first live stage play and I absolutely love it. The actors were so talented and put on a wonderful show, it made me feel like I was living life right next to Hamilton himself. MUST SEE
I am not a history buff. My sister invited me to watch Hamilton. The production was absolutely awesome. The performance of each character was brilliantly performed. Beautiful voices, costumes were authentic, props were spectacular. I enjoyed the entire show.
MY SETS WERE HORRIBLE. I DON'T THINK THE VENUE SHOULD SELL TICKETS IN SECTION GTIERL ROW AA SEATS 5-12. YES, THE TICKET INDICATED 'OBSTRUCTED VIEW', BUT THE VIEW WAS ABSOLUTELY UNACCEPTABLE. THE SEATING CHART DOES NOT SHOW THE OBSTRUCTION. THIS WAS A LESSON LEARNED FOR ME.
Visually stunning. Mumbling though. Most of the words were lost since it goes so fast (one of the beautiful things about this musical) which took away from everything.
Hamilton was outstanding! The performers & voices were so perfect and fit every single emotion felt. Funny, happy, sad, nervous…. I would definitely recommend it be seen by others.
I finally got a chance to see Hamilton live and it was well worth it!
Fantastic show and performance. This was a birthday surprise for my daughter and she truly was surprised up to the time we walked in. She was thrilled and she enjoyed show immensely. She loves musicals, so this was right up there with the others she has seen. There was one person on our row taking pictures or video. Another on her phone the entire time. Other than that it was superb!
