Hamilton has been on a success high since its first show in 2016 and it is showing no signs of dying down any time soon. Infact, where it was simply one of the many shows on Broadway, it has now broken at least twelve different types of records and launched simultaneous shows in four different cities. New York, Chicago, Los Angeles and London all now have their own Lin-Manuel Miranda approved in-house company of Hamilton. As if that is not enough, the Broadway chapter is currently on a national tour, with stopovers planned in Denver and Salt Lake City. Hamilton Salt Lake City tickets for their show at the George S. and Dolores Dore Ecces Theatre are available now.

About the Play

The musical follows the life of America’s founding father and first Treasure Secretary, Alexander Hamilton. While it borrows closely from history, the show’s creator Lin-Manuel Miranda has tweaked some historical facts in order to also turn this play into a symbolic commentary on modern times. Miranda does not mean to give another history lesson: he wants instead for America now to connect with the ghost of America past. The foundation of this country rides on its essence of being a melting pot and so the founding fathers’ story is one of every single immigrant who has learned to call this place home. Not only that, but reimagining the characters of this play as hip-hop artists is ingenious since hip-hop is the music of the marginalized; the underdogs who have made it big.

Hamilton has become nothing less than a cultural benchmark and it completely changed popular culture. From Beyonce to ex-President Obama, people from various walks of life have united under their praise for this production. Having won a record number of eleven Tonys in 2016, Hamilton is considered an inspired and inspiring production which achieves one mile stone after another.

Nation-wide Tour

Anyone who has ever tried getting a Hamilton ticket on Broadway would know how near-to-impossible that ordeal is. Nevertheless, the Hamilton National Tour gives fans a chance to witness the play multiple times, perhaps in their own city as well! Hamilton Salt Lake City tickets are your chance to watch it at the George S. and Dolores Dore Ecces Theatre.
