San Francisco Prepares to Launch HAMILTON National Tour!

As BroadwayWorld previously reported, the national tour of the Broadway musical HAMILTON will launch from California in spring 2017. HAMILTON will anchor the 2016-2017 seasons at both the SHN Orpheum Theatre in San Francisco (with performances starting March 2017) and the Hollywood Pantages in Los Angeles (from August 11 to December 30). There might still be over a year until the tour's launch, but San Francisco is ready!

With book, music and lyrics by Lin-Manuel Miranda, direction by Thomas Kail, choreography by Andy Blankenbuehler and musical direction and orchestrations by Alex Lacamoire, HAMILTON is based onRon Chernow's biography of Founding Father Alexander 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 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.
