Hamilton is going on its first ever UK tour this year, with performances announced in Manchester and Edinburgh.<\/p>\n

Easily the biggest show of the last decade, Lin-Manuel Miranda\u2019s award-winning musical will be hitting theatres from November 2023 and carrying on into 2024.<\/p>\n

The stage show tells the story of US founding father Alexander Hamilton on his journey to achieve American independence and establish the country\u2019s status as a global superpower. Since its off-Broadway beginnings in 2015, all other musicals have been helpless against it as the show has gone on to win the Pulitzer Prize for drama, 11 Tony awards and seven Olivier awards.<\/p>\n

In 2017, the show reached the West End and found a home in London\u2019s Victoria Palace Theatre, where it has stayed for five years.<\/p>\n

Now, the musical will be embarking on a new tour around the country, starting with the Manchester Palace theatre on 11th November 2023. After a 15-week showing there, it will go on to the festival theatre in Edinburgh for a two-month stint from 28th February to 27th April 2024.<\/p>\n

The show\u2019s producers, Cameron Mackintosh and Jeffrey Seller, have also said that further locations will be announced soon.<\/p>\n

On the topic of the tour, Seller said: \u201cSince the day the show opened at the Victoria Palace Theatre, London has embraced Hamilton with an enthusiasm we could never have imagined.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe are excited to embark on a UK tour and share this special musical with audiences in Manchester and Edinburgh first.\u201d<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, Mackintosh spoke about the importance of going to Edinburgh: \u201cOpening first in Manchester, followed by Edinburgh \u2013 not far from where the real story of Alexander Hamilton began in Ayrshire, where his father was born in the 1700s, before he moved to Nevis in the West Indies.<\/p>\n

\u201cTomorrow we start casting for a brilliant new company. We look forward to welcoming audiences to \u2018the room where it happens\u2019.\u201d<\/p>\n
