Hamilton at Orpheum Theatre San Francisco

After appearances in the world’s most well-known theaters including Broadway itself and London’s West End, Hamilton will now also be performing for a limited season this December in Orpheum Theatre of San Francisco, an especially renowned theatre acclaimed for its greatest facilities fit to host world-class plays and shows.

Hamilton honors the life of Alexander Hamilton, conceptualized and scored by the multi-talented Lin-Manuel Miranda, basing it off the 2004 biography of Ron Chernow. It recounts the historical life of Alexander Hamilton in a ‘hipper’ format, staying close to the facts behind Hamilton's life but with artistic flair and musical scoring that makes Hamilton extremely entertaining. Hamilton actually began off Broadway in August of 2015 and was instantly met with unbelievable reviews from its premier. As well as numerous press articles and audiences, The Washington Post, called it “making ecstatic history”, as the Musical’s premiere with its unbelievable cast including the likes of show creator Lin-Manuel Miranda himself in the title role and Tony Award winner Jonathan Groff, wowed audiences in its premiere with a spectacular opening night. The show went on over the next decade to earn 11 Tony Awards from 16 nominations, as well as Olivier, Grammy, and Pulitzer Prize Awards.

Ever since its debut, Hamilton has toured to perform in lots of locations across the globe, where it has been met with continuously raving reviews. BroadwayWorld calls Hamilton “the hottest ticket in town”, as it appeals to a wider range in audience due to it being accessible to both the older generations who were interested in the history behind Hamilton, and the newer audiences that came for the exciting and artistic approach behind this show. Over in London’s West End, TimeOut mentions their worry behind the show being overhyped, but that “Lin-Manuel Miranda’s musical about Alexander Hamilton, the first secretary of the U.S. Treasury, is actually better than the hype suggests”. Even just recently with a touring cast in its Manila, Philippines’ performance, PEP PH describes Hamilton as a “visual and sensory feast that adds layers of depth to the narrative”; “This musical is a masterpiece not because it tells a flawless story, but because it brilliantly captures the essence of the imperfect human experience, and in doing so, it achieves perfection on the stage”, they stated.

Magazine critics and viewers alike agree that Hamilton is a must-see this winter as it picks up its tour all over the Nation.
