Hamilton at Richard Rodgers Theatre

The portrayal of Alexander Hamilton's life, taking place during the late 1700s, is both inspiring and devastating. The musical remains timeless and captivating because of its expertly explored themes of love, tragedy, pardoning, and ambition. The story is skillfully expressed through hip-hop, featuring a multicultural ensemble of black and brown performers. “It adopts an exclusive meaning when you observe black and brown performers narrating the beginnings of our country,” stated composer Lin Manuel Miranda.

The Guardian commented on the production's unconventional context and shared only laudatory opinions. The author stated, “Its rousing opening scenes remind us of that grand American ideal of equal rights and address slavery and civil rights in the 18th century. “I never anticipate making it past 20. Where I originated, some get half as many,” sings Hamilton at the beginning, and his lyrics resonate the precarious destiny that awaits so many of America’s black or immigrant underprivileged class now, as talks around Black Lives Matter demonstrations have emphasized.”

It’s undeniable - the musical music of Hamilton is distinct from any other Broadway musical. The diversity of musical elements, including hip-hop, pop, and R&B, sets Hamilton apart from other theatrical productions. During the musical's 46 songs, the characters perform and rap roughly 20,000 words at a pace of roughly 144 words per minute. Besides its numerous accomplishments, Hamilton the Musical achieved something few musicals have achieved: a Pulitzer Prize. This critically acclaimed musical secured an additional accolade to its list of honors when it won the Pulitzer Prize for Drama in 2016.

Fun fact: The lines in "Guns and Ships" hold the record for the fastest spoken words in Broadway musical record. It’s indeed a remarkable song!
