“electrifying adaptation… a Broadway musical destined for the record books.” – Deadline

“Hamilton is the best and most important Broadway musical of the past decade.” – Wallstreet Journal
How does a bastard, orphan, son of a whore and a Scotsman rise to fame on Broadway? Through the masterpiece created by Lin-Manuel Miranda! Hamilton is undeniably one of the best Broadway productions right now. A story of America’s Founding Father, Alexander Hamilton, brought to audiences in the most thrilling and encapsulating way. The musical is based on the 2004 biography Alexander Hamilton by Ron Chernow. It features direction by Thomas Kail, choreography by Andy Blankenbuehler, and musical supervision and orchestrations by Alex Lacamoire.
The New York Times instantly became huge fans of the production and said, “I am loath to tell people to mortgage their houses and lease their children to acquire tickets to a hit Broadway show. But Hamilton, directed by Thomas Kail and starring Mr. Miranda, might just about be worth it…”
Hamilton had brought out a series of praises even before opening on Broadway. Jonathan Mandell from the DC Theatre Scene had already called it “groundbreaking and breathtaking.” Its premiere on Broadway however, gave Lin-Manuel Miranda all the praise and attention he truly deserved. Hamilton was hailed as revolutionary theatre in 2015, with its rapping 18th-century statesmen, upbeat, feel-good hip-hop, and a racially diverse ensemble. What would old America think about black Founding Fathers? Dazzled – we hope!
Eight Drama Desk Awards were given to the production – making these awards the first of many to come. Hamilton garnered a record-breaking 16 nominations for the 70th Tony Awards and took up 11 prizes, including Best Musical. The 2016 Pulitzer Prize for Drama was also awarded to the production. Its fantastic tracks are carefully crafted and appeals to audiences outside of theatre. It even won the Grammy Award for “Best Musical Theatre Album,” and was honored at the Billboard Music Award as “Top Cast Soundtrack/Album.”
“The hottest ticket in town… Hamilton has only grown as a phenomenon with its move to Broadway.” – BroadwayWorld.com
“Miranda’s demonstration of talent, skill and savvy earn him a well-deserved gold star, and a goldmine too.” – Huffington Post
The production offers a completely sung-and-rapped through dramatization of Alexander Hamilton’s life – as he takes on the world and starts a revolution. Hamilton discusses revolution with his friends in a pub, including the Marquis de Lafayette; suggests a new form of government as a delegate at the Constitutional Convention; and acts as the first Secretary of the Treasury for the new country. Hamilton is shown as both the aggressor and the victim of political intrigue, the main character in the country’s first major sex scandal, and a survivor of numerous catastrophes. Of course, let’s not forget the themes of love woven into the production, as Hamilton woos his wife Eliza – slightly charmed by her sister Angelica.
Variety said “After six months, the show’s initial impact hasn’t dulled a bit; in fact, the qualities that made it so extraordinary the first time around are all the more striking…That rapper style, with its interlocking interior rhymes and pounding cadences, perfectly captures Hamilton’s feverish intelligence and hyperarticulate manner. But instead of keeping to a single uniform musical style (hip-hop or otherwise), as traditional shows often have, Miranda continues to draw from all available styles and musical sources, from nursery lullaby to rock ‘n’ roll and operetta, in order to capture the soul of a character and the spirit of the moment. If this sort of thing catches on, the old, reliable Broadway showtune may be a thing of the past.”
