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 helped shape the very foundations of the America we know today. The score blends hip-hop, jazz, blues, rap, R&B and Broadway - the story of America then, as told by America now.
Hamilton has book, music and lyrics by Lin-Manuel Miranda, is directed by Thomas Kail, with choreography by Andy Blankenbuehler and musical supervision and orchestrations by Alex Lacamoire and is based on Ron Chernow's biography of Alexander Hamilton.

No wonder Hamilton has taken the world by storm! The cast, the orchestra, the story all served to bring history to life for a new generation of youth, as I was 50 years ago seeing Man of La Mancha in Paris, or Les Miz in London in 1987! Thanks for the memories!

Hamilton is a revolutionary musical that seamlessly blends history and hip-hop, narrating the life of Alexander Hamilton. The musical has captivating lyrics and energetic performances.

We were wowed by the sheer energy of the production. It didn’t matter that we took in little of what was being said or sung. All the performers were obviously fully engaged and having a grand time.

As we all know, Hamilton is a world class show, no issues there and the actors were amazing! We were seated in the royal circle and the seating was beyond awful. No space for legs at all, no room for our bag and coat. We were practically sat ontop of the person next to us. There should be warning when you buy the seat that there is only room for children to sit there. The view we had was also only of the top of the actors head, making it hard to enjoy the show. For the price you pay for the seats i thought was far from acceptable. I have woke up the next morning with chronic leg and neck pain due to this.

Didn't know what to expect and knew nothing about the man. Would have followed it better better if I'd read up first. Not a big fan of rap as such but the choreography was amazing and the production very slick. Warmly recommended

I’m not usually a fan of musicals, however this kept my interest from start to finish. The story line, music, dancing were all outstanding. The orchestra didn’t get enough of a look in at applause time. Definitely keen to re-live it again!

Had heard so much and expectations were so high it is unfair to say that I was only really impressed rather than completely dazzled. Totally original, spectacular songs and dancing, and a great story. Lyrics not always clear given rapid fire delivery, but not to the detriment of the show. Performances excellent individually and collectively

The show itself - or what we saw of it - was amazing. We were evacuated in the second half - with no communication, into pouring rain, no idea what was happening and ended up missing the rest of the show. We still don't know what happened and it ruined our daughters birthday.

The show was incredible and insights different emotions in an audience: the music and vocals are just as good. This is my second time attending the show and it’s inspiring to see the cast shake up their roles and fit into them so perfectly

As a 58 year old British male I was unsure about an American rap music even though my daughter said it was amazing. Well blow me down with a feather she was right and I was completely ‘blown away’! I know it sounds unlikely that a story about a founding father and American Independence told completely in rap would work in London but it absolutely does - I loved it from start to finish! Thanks to all the cast!

Hi everyone, I was unable to attend my booking for Hamilton and contacted the box office to see could I perhaps move my tickets to another time, the box office hadn’t the courtesy to answer my query, will never book with them again

We can’t recommend the show enough, what a fantastic performance. We would also like to give a huge shout out to Pippa (theatre supervisor) who was super helpful when my wife wasn’t feeling well due to the height and her being pregnant. A great day out.

Am not really a musical enthusiast, same with my 14 year old daughter, but we were told that this one is different. So bought tickets for us and my friend and her 12 year old daughter. It was simply really good, we all loved the story, music, performance and the whole stage presence of the performers! So much energy, talent and great beats combined with a well needed history lesson Only the 12 year old found it a bit too long, I think she was just that bit too young. Hence a 4 out of 5 would definitely recommend it, and we all think that the creator is a genious!!!

Right from the off you feel the passion and energy of the cast supported by a powerful musical accompaniment for this stunning tale Sound is clear and strong and the night drives a long like a juggernaut to its climax

I was never really a fan of musicals but have grown to love them now. Going to see a musical with the addition of my preferred genre stepped up many levels. The cast were amazing, very talented and put on a great show. I will never forget going to see Hamilton, and will spread the word as a ‘go to see’ as much as I can. I could not think of a better way to spend my afternoon. THANK YOU!

I love the actress for Angelica and the mister for Washington! However, there has been some ‘accidents’ on stage, for instance during the first part, a string instrument made an disturbing unexpected sound; Elisa during her last song had skipped the climax of that song (but when my time is up, have I done enough…) I can tell that she seemed upset after that show, but the show does not match my expectations, or even match the standard for a musical. I have watched Hamilton so many times and this is the most (I would say) disappointing show :(

Watched the recorded version on Disney several times so knew what to expect and was not disappointed. What a thrill, the cast were superb, the music captured us and the setting was lovely. Just what live theatre is all about. Can't wait to see it again.

Having heard so much about it and having studied it in detail for a musical theatre degree we were blown away with how amazing Hamilton was to see live. The male harmonies were incredible (especially when you’re used to listening for the female ones)! A never to be missed opportunity to watch such a great musical story.

What an amazing production! The set was mesmerizing as were the performers. There was so much energy on display it was breathtaking! I was transfixed the whole performance. I also loved the lighting and how well it was used to enhance the show. Highly recommend this show for so many reasons!

You always know when you have been to a good show when on the way out there is this electric buzz among the audience complimenting on what they have just seen and complete joy of what they have just witnessed-It’s why I keep coming back to live theatre.

So much energy, so dynamic, so intelligent. I laughed, I cried, I would’ve never imagined a musical about someone who wrote a lot of documents could be so emotional. I understand the hype completely.

Hamilton was simply fabulous! The theatre, bar area and seats were so great. The cast was wonderful and we thoroughly enjoyed it. It was the best performance I’ve seen- now I want to see it again.

Been to seen Hamilton twice and always came out with a buzz. Unfortunately last night felt nothing. Found no consistency in the characters and to be honest couldn't wait to get out. The settings seemed different from previous shows. Sounding poor too but that could be due to the grand circles seats booked. Unfortunately will not return to see.
