Overview

Sydneysiders, are you ready to sit in the room where it happens? Lin-Manuel Miranda's game-changing, award-winning, rightly raved-about international sensation Hamilton is back in town.

The global phenomenon is returning to the Sydney Lyric Theatre this July and is the absolute last Australian season of the acclaimed production, so do not throw away your shot to see the biggest thing in musical theatre this century.

Who knew musicals about history could be cool? Turns out Lin-Manuel Miranda did. The globally and critically acclaimed hip hop musical, for which Miranda wrote the music, lyrics and book, is about the life of Founding Father Alexander Hamilton, a story that reflects inclusion, ambition and politics in current-day America. In addition to its swag of Tony® Awards — 11 including Best Musical — it has nabbed a Grammy® Award, Olivier Awards, and a Pulitzer Prize for drama. In addition to the award clout and rave reviews, the musical made cultural waves throughout theatregoers and beyond, sparking a newfound surge to the theatre box offices across the globe.

The blockbuster musical first graced the stage in Australia in 2021, opening at the Sydney Lyric Theatre. If you haven't become a Hamilton obsessive yet? We'll give you a few of the highlights of the show.

If you missed the debut Australian run, or even if your Hamilton experience has been confined to Disney+, there's nothing like experiencing this in person, feeling the emotion of these world-class performances, stunning sets and costumes and being blown away by these landmark lyrics.

Hamilton is truly a bucket list experience. Don't miss your last chance to tick it off in Australia.

Hamilton's final Sydney season kicks off on Tuesday, July 30 at Sydney Lyric Theatre and is currently booking through to the end of October. Visit the musical's website for further details.
