Hamilton mania has reached fever pitch since the recording of the transformative theatre experience hit streaming service, Disney Plus.
The production that blends hip-hop, jazz, R&B, and Broadway has taken out any award that’s worth having on the mantle including a Tony, a Grammy®, and Olivier and it’s even won the Pulitzer Prize.
For the uninitiated (where have you been?!), Hamilton is the story of one of the Founding Fathers of the United States, Alexander Hamilton. It’s written by American composer, lyricist, actor, singer, rapper, producer, and playwright, Lin-Manuel Miranda and has become a true cultural phenomenon.
If everything goes accordingly, a production of Hamilton will hit our shores in March next year.
