The musical has made its creator, Lin-Manuel Miranda, a global superstar, along with original stars of the show, such as Leslie Odom Jr and Daveed Diggs. As Hamilton's record-breaking trajectory continues in the West End, it is now marked as one of the greatest musicals of all time.
The world premiere of Hamilton took place at the Off-Broadway Public Theater and was initially scheduled for a strictly limited run. Audiences, however, couldn't get enough, and Hamilton soon transferred to Broadway at the Richard Rodgers Theatre, where it officially opened on 6 August 2015 and continues to run to this day.
Hamilton began previews on 6 December 2017 in the West End, in London at the newly renovated Victoria Palace Theatre, ahead of an official opening on 20 December 2017.
The musical centres on Alexander Hamilton, who was born in the West Indies and moved to America following the death of his mother in search of opportunity. The fact that Hamilton was an immigrant is poignant and reflects in the diverse cast to show how the United States has evolved as a nation since its beginnings from the Revolutionary War.
Hamilton served in the war as an aide to George Washington, who commanded the Continental Army before serving as the first President of the newly formed United States of America. After the war, Hamilton helped to develop the United States financial system and the Department of the Treasury, which is still relevant today. As an ode to the foundations he set, Hamilton is one of the few individuals whose face appears on American bank notes.
The popularity of the musical shows no sign of abating, and Hamilton tickets are still hot property in London as its fresh, engaging take on historical events resonates with contemporary audiences and has created a modern theatrical classic.
To book London theatre tickets at the Victoria Palace Theatre, it is worth noting that prices can vary due to market forces, and different price bands are available, so studying the seating plan is recommended.
