Lin-Manuel Miranda's hip-hop musical about Alexander Hamilton, with performances at 2.30pm and 7.30pm at the Victoria Palace Theatre.
Hamilton is playing at the Victoria Palace Theatre on Wednesday 2 December, as part of its ongoing London run. The show follows Alexander Hamilton, an immigrant from the West Indies who became George Washington's right-hand man during the Revolutionary War and helped shape the foundations of the United States. The book, music and lyrics are all by Lin-Manuel Miranda, with direction by Thomas Kail, choreography by Andy Blankenbuehler and musical supervision and orchestrations by Alex Lacamoire, all drawing on Ron Chernow's biography of the man.
The score blends hip-hop, jazz, blues, rap, R&B and Broadway, told by America now. It's a production that's collected a fair few awards: 11 Tonys including Best Musical, seven Oliviers including Best New Musical, the 2016 Pulitzer Prize for Drama and the 2016 Grammy for Best Musical Theatre Album. It's recommended for ages 10 and over.
On stage, Stephenson Ardern-Sodje takes the title role of Alexander Hamilton, with Yeukayi Ushe as Aaron Burr, Georgina Onuorah as Angelica Schuyler, Bente Mulan as Eliza Hamilton, Akmed Junior Khemalai as George Washington and Daniel Boys as King George. Ashley J. Daniels plays both the Marquis De Lafayette and Thomas Jefferson, and they're all backed by a large ensemble.
