Directed by Thomas Kail, with choreography by Andy Blankenbuehler and costumes by Paul Tazewell, Hamilton premiered Off-Broadway at The Public Theater in 2015 before transferring to Broadway later that year. It went on to win 11 Tony Awards, the Pulitzer Prize for Drama, and a Grammy for Best Musical Theater Album. Every detail, from David Korins’s versatile set design to Howell Binkley’s Tony-winning lighting, contributes to a show that feels urgent, emotional, and alive. Hamilton musical on Broadway isn’t just a musical; it’s a modern-day history lesson set to a beat that refuses to stop.
