How many shots do you get to watch the Tony, Grammy, Olivier, and Pulitzer Prize-winning musical Hamilton on the big screen with its original Broadway cast? Don't throw yours away!
Premiering on Broadway in 2015 and returning to theaters to celebrate its 10th anniversary, Hamilton is the story of America then, told by America now. Featuring a score that blends hip-hop, jazz, R&B, and Broadway, Hamilton took the story of American founding father Alexander Hamilton—inspired by the book Alexander Hamilton by Ron Chernow— and created a revolutionary moment in theatre with a musical that has had a profound impact on culture, politics, and education. Filmed at the Richard Rodgers Theatre in June of 2016, the film transports its audience into the world of the Broadway show in a uniquely intimate way. The 11-time Tony, Grammy, Olivier, and Pulitzer Prize-winning stage musical's filmed version features its original Broadway cast, including Lin-Manuel Miranda, Leslie Odom, Jr., Anthony Ramos, and Phillipa Soo.
