Cameron Mackintosh said: “Jeffrey Seller and I are delighted to announce the on sale dates next January for tickets to Lin-Manuel’s eagerly awaited London production of “Hamilton”. We have already started the casting process and are very excited by the tremendous diverse talents that we are already seeing for the production which opens at the Victoria Palace in just over a year’s time, December 2017.
The recently acquired Victoria Palace Theatre is currently in the process of a major renovation and expansion that will bring it into the 21st century so that it can offer the public the same mix of glamour and comfort enjoyed by my other West End theatres.
I couldn’t be more thrilled that the brilliant “Hamilton”, already acclaimed as one of the landmark musicals of the 21st Century, is going to re-launch the much loved theatre on its next 100 years.”
Winner of 11 Tony Awards including Best Musical, the 2016 Pulitzer Prize for Drama, and the 2016 Grammy Award for Best Musical Theater Album, HAMILTON has smashed box office records on Broadway and has become a cultural sensation.
HAMILTON, currently playing on Broadway at The Richard Rodgers Theatre and in Chicago has book, music and lyrics by Lin-Manuel Miranda, is directed by Thomas Kail, with choreography by Andy Blankenbuehler and musical direction and orchestrations by Alex Lacamoire, and is based on Ron Chernow’s biography of Alexander Hamilton.
HAMILTON is the story of America’s Founding Father Alexander Hamilton, an immigrant from the West Indies who became George Washington’s right-hand man during the Revolutionary War and was the new nation’s first Treasury Secretary. The score blends hip-hop, jazz, blues, rap, R&B and Broadway – the story of America then, as told by America now.
HAMILTON’S creative team previously collaborated on the 2008 Tony Award-winning Best Musical In the Heights, which is currently enjoying a very successful run at London’s Kings Cross Theatre.
