Hamilton at Richard Rodgers Theatre

Show producer Lin-Manuel Miranda, fresh off his success from his previous Broadway production, In the Heights, conceptualized Hamilton for a few years before it debuted in the Richard Rodgers Theatre in 2015. It was in this debut that Miranda also acted the role of Hamilton. The whole Musical, including its stellar cast and impressive score received highly regarded feedback from both critics and new fans alike.

The Musical, as almost all know, is a historical story that centers on one of the Countries Founding Fathers, but the show takes a fresh and forward-thinking approach, as seen in the music styles chosen and more so in its diverse casting. Plus, the 2016 Tony Awards, where Hamilton took home 11 out of 16 nominations, is a testament to its success. the Musical’s debut cast consisted of the actors and actresses, Philippa Soo, Leslie Odom Jr., and Jonathan Groff. Individually, the cast was already filled with both well-known nominees and awardees, but their diverse and rich performances taken collectively brought Hamilton to a brand-new level. The production team, just as equally talented, earned Tony Awards for the production. Thomas Kail for Best Direction, Andy Blankenbuehler for Best Choreography, Alex Lacamoire for Best Orchestrations, Howell Binkley for Best Lighting Design of a Musical, Paul Tazewell for Best Costume Design of a Musical, and of course Lin-Manuel Miranda himself for Best Original Score and Best Book of a Musical, all stole the show at the 2016 Tony Awards. Additionally, and unsurprisingly, the production also grabbed Best Musical for the year. The current cast and production crew in each new entertainment venue where the production is on tour brings the same passion and enthusiasm in their shows, with overwhelming positive reviews maintained regularly.

Hamilton’s meteoric rise to fame led to opening many doors worldwide for the fans to experience the production. It has continued for the past decade to perform not just in the U.S., but also on London’s West End and in a number of venues across Asia. The show’s limited season will be heading to New York throughout October (and on Saturday 4th October 2025) at Richard Rodgers Theatre, selling out at yet another world-class stage with the premier facilities and sound engineering that could surpass even Broadway and West End theaters.
