Everyone is buzzing about Lin-Manuel Miranda’s blockbuster hit, a sung- and rapped-through musical that tells the story of American Founding Father Alexander Hamilton. It’s the must-see Broadway event of the decade. Witness the magic September 18 to November 18 at the Boston Opera House. It’s located just 0.4 miles from our boutique hotel in the Boston Theatre District– a 10-minute walk!
In case you slept through 5th-grade history, Alexander Hamilton had a huge influence on America’s formation and development. He rose from a Caribbean street kid to the right-hand man of George Washington – a true American dream story. Hamilton was the United States’ first Secretary of the Treasury, a delegate of the Constitutional Convention, and an author of the Federalist Papers. You would probably recognize him, because his face is on the $10 bill. He famously died in a duel with Aaron Burr.
The musical is set in 1776 New York and follows the life of Hamilton, who worked his way up from an orphan childhood in the Caribbean to a political mastermind and a Founding Father of America. As a teenage clerk, he wrote a moving piece about a hurricane that inspired a group of mentors to send him to school in New York. He was soon working for George Washington and led a bayonet charge at Yorktown, the battle that decided the fate of the American Revolution. He got married, had a scandalous affair, made some serious enemies, and spoiled the election of Aaron Burr. And it’s all right there in the musical.
Hamilton opened Off-Broadway in February 2015 and was an instant success, soon moving to Broadway itself with sell-out crowds packed with celebrities. Tickets sell out in minutes, and ticket prices go through the roof for good seats. Broadway fans have shelled out thousands of dollars to see the live show. But why is Hamilton such a hit?
