“Hamilton” is the runaway, rap-musical success about founding father Alexander Hamilton. The Broadway show’s story begins with Hamilton’s immigration to America and follows him through the Revolutionary War, where Hamilton was Washington’s right-hand man. The musical was written by Lin-Manuel Miranda, who created an unprecedented sound for Broadway, blending hip-hop, blues, jazz, and R&B.
Hamilton earned the most Tony Award nominations ever, with 16 and 11 award wins.
Hamilton will anchor Bass’ extensive 2019-2020 season, which will include “Miss Saigon,” “Roald Dahl’s Charlie and the Chocolate Factory” and “Disney’s The Lion King.” The season includes special performances of “The Color Purple” and the Blue Man Group.
“Our 2019-2020 season is a real blockbuster. These are some of the biggest and best titles Broadway has to offer,” President & CEO of Performing Arts Fort Worth Dione Kennedy said. “Many of them are still on Broadway and many will be making their Fort Worth debuts. It’s a very, very exciting lineup.”
Tickets to individual shows are not up for purchase at this time. Bass Hall is selling season packages that start at $343.50, which is an average of $43 per show.
