A certified sensation, Hamilton has won numerous Olivier, Tony, Grammys, and Pulitzer Prizes since in first premiered off-Broadway in 2015. Following an acclaimed Broadway run, the show hit the UK two years later at London’s Victoria Palace Theatre – where it’s sold out crowds ever since.

 

Hamilton offers a ground-breaking take on the history of Founding Father Alexander Hamilton, using an eclectic score to create a revolutionary piece of theatre that offers a unique take on culture, politics and education. The book, score and lyrics are courtesy of Lin-Manuel Miranda (Mary Poppins Returns, Encanto, Moana).

 

This UK touring production boasts a creative team that previously collaborated for the Tony Award-winning musical In The Heights as well as a cast that stars Shaq Taylor (Beauty and the Beast) as Alexander Hamilton. With hit numbers including ‘Guns & Ships’, ‘You’ll Be Back’, ‘My Shot’ and ‘Wait For It’, this is going to be special!

 

In addition to Bristol, Hamilton’s tour of the UK and Ireland will drop by theatre venues in Edinburgh, Birmingham, Dublin, Cardiff, Bradford, Southampton, Liverpool, Sunderland, Plymouth and Norwich. Visit the production website for details.
