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.
Featuring a score that blends hip-hop, jazz, blues, rap, R&B, and
Broadway,
HAMILTON is the story of America then, as told by America now. With book, music and lyrics by
Lin-Manuel Miranda, direction by Thomas Kail, choreography by Andy Blankenbuehler and musical supervision and orchestrations by
Alex Lacamoire, Hamilton is based on Ron Chernow’s biography of Founding Father Alexander Hamilton.
