News: Multi-award winning Hamilton returns to the West End from 19 August

Multi-award winning West End production of Hamilton is set to return to the West End from 19 August at the Victoria Palace Theatre. The show is currently booking until 13 February 2022.

With full casting yet to be announced, the show returns after over a year of shutdown.

Creator Lin-Manuel Miranda said: “For over a year the lights on the West End have been dark and our friends, family and colleagues on and off the stage have been out of work. It is with tremendous gratitude that we announce the return of Hamilton to London’s Victoria Palace Theatre this August. We will safely gather to tell this story again. We’ll be back.”

Hamilton features a book, music and lyrics by Lin-Manuel Miranda, with direction by Thomas Kail, choreography by Andy Blankenbuehler and musical supervision and orchestrations by Alex Lacamoire.  It is based on Ron Chernow’s biography of Alexander Hamilton.

The show also features scenic design by David Korins, costume design by Paul Tazewell, lighting design by Howell Binkley, sound design by Nevin Steinberg and hair and wig design by Charles G. LaPointe.

The musical is an Olivier, Tony and Grammy Award-winning hit, which opened at the re-built and restored Victoria Palace Theatre in London in December 2017 and continued to play there until the start of lockdown in March last year.
