The lauded Lin-Manuel Miranda musical Hamilton led the way at the Olivier Awards 2018 ceremony, collecting seven awards from its record-breaking thirteen nominations.

I loved Hamilton when I saw it. I paid £57.50 for a seat in the middle of the top tier of the newly refurbed Victoria Palace Theatre. It was pretty expensive, but I made my peace with it. The show was everything I wanted it to be.

Jeffrey Seller and Cameron Mackintosh announce today (25 January 2018) that a new booking period for the London production of HAMILTON will go on sale on Monday 29 January 2018 at 12 noon GMT.

Does Hamilton live up the hype - and will it appeal to British audiences? Yes, and yes again. It's not like America has a monopoly on national identity crisis, leadership, immigration, parenthood, grief, sex scandals and political rivalries. But beyond that, it's just a blisteringly great night out: universally thrilling entertainment.

Lin-Manuel Miranda joined the West End cast of Hamilton for a special digital #Ham4Ham video in honor of tonight's opening. Lin and the cast mashed up their favorite songs by UK artists with some of the songs from Hamilton and the result was epic. Check out the video here!

'There's a million things I haven't done, but just you wait.' We remember hearing these words for the first time almost two years ago when a friend recommended that we listen to the soundtrack for 'the best musical on Broadway'. These words, illustrative of Hamilton's journey from orphan immigrant to George Washington's most trusted advisor and creator of America's financial system, inspire us in every aspect of our lives.

Lin-Manuel Miranda's Hamilton tells the story of finding a way to fight for what you believe in within a world of chaos. While Hamilton is ready to fight from the beginning he is young, scrappy, and hungry , after all Aaron Burr spends most of the musical waiting for the moment when he feels ready to act, and (spoiler alert) this waiting ultimately damns him.

For Earth Day 2016, Lin-Manuel partnered with the Broadway Green Alliance (BGA) for an epic #Ham4Ham freestyle with BGA Green Captain Seth Stewart.
