About the show
Hamilton tells the story of Alexander Hamilton with hip hop, R and B, and show tunes. The score moves fast, and the book packs in politics, love, and the cost of ambition. The turntable set keeps scenes flowing like a film.
It is a story about legacy, about who writes the tale that lasts, and about the price of ideas. The cast works as one unit, and the chorus drives the action with constant motion. It is a landmark of modern musical theatre.
