Hamilton last night at the Palace Victoria Theatre was a once in a lifetime experience! Myself and two teenaged children from Australia, have had our tickets booked for months and have been very excited! Booking was very easy and we received a reminder yesterday with ticket links working perfectly and all running smoothly! The theatre is very cozy with its dim lighting and gorgeous architecture. King George! An absolute highlight for us! All performers were amazing! We were in awe of the whole production and were singing along to all our faves! Thank you for such a wonderful experience. We are already telling all our friends and family in the UK and back home! If we had more time in London we would definitely see the show again!

I am not the biggest fan of musicals with that are 'sung' all the way through so I was a little hesitant about seeing Hamilton live, BUT there was nothing to worry about, IT WAS AMAZING and I LOVED every moment. It's innovative, fresh, contemporary and culturally relevant. Lin Manuel has created something truly inspiring. It was so refreshing to see such diversity in the cast, score and music styles. I hope we continue to see more shows like this in the West End.

It was an extraordinary experience seeing this musical. It’s not a musical you watch because you feel you have to, but because it is a masterpiece — from the costumes to the actors, the choreography, the music, and the humor. You might think you’ll get bored during the 2.5 hours, but the show doesn’t give you time to feel that way. Congratulations to the actors and everyone involved — your work is truly seen and deeply appreciated!

The smash-hit musical Hamilton, inspired by Ron Chernow’s biography, tells the story of America’s Founding Father through hip-hop and R&B, ideal for history buffs, theater lovers, and music fans.

From its Broadway debut to the West End, Hamilton has won a Pulitzer Prize, 11 Tonys and 7 Olivier Awards, powered by Lin-Manuel Miranda’s score and Thomas Kail’s direction.

Themes of revolution, ambition, and legacy unfold through its Grammy-winning Best Musical Theater Album, with tracks like “My Shot,” “The Room Where It Happens,” and “Wait For It.

A Disney+ filmed version with the original cast turned Hamilton into a cultural juggernaut, making this London run the best way to see the sensation on stage.

Playing at London’s Victoria Palace Theatre, this record-breaking show remains one of the city’s most popular musicals. Book your Hamilton London tickets to witness history reinvented live.

The story

Set in late 18th-century America, Hamilton follows Alexander Hamilton, an ambitious immigrant from the West Indies who rises to power as George Washington’s right-hand man. Through battles, political rivalries, and personal struggles, the musical charts his journey from obscurity to shaping a nation. Alongside figures like Aaron Burr, Thomas Jefferson, and Eliza Schuyler, Hamilton’s legacy is forged in revolution and tested by betrayal. But how far will ambition carry him before it all comes crashing down?

Seeing Hamilton was an experience that can only be described as electrifying. From the first note the energy in the theater was palpable. While the show is a global phenomenon, this particular performance felt incredibly personal because I shared it with my daughter. As a dancer, singer, and musical theater student herself, her appreciation for the technical demands of the show made the evening truly special. The caliber of talent on that stage was staggering. Every lead delivered a performance that felt both historically grounded and vibrantly contemporary. The vocal precision required for this score is immense, but the cast made it look effortless. The energy reached its peak whenever the ensemble took the stage. Their choral power and synchronized movement raised the energy of the entire theater. There is an intensity in those ensemble numbers that is hard to put into words—a wall of sound and motion that leaves you breathless. As we watched, my daughter and I were fascinated by how the "beautiful dances" integrated seamlessly into the storytelling. We were particularly struck by the excellent choreography. The dances are beautiful, intricate, and purposeful. Every movement tells a story -- the way the ensemble pivots, the fluid transitions, and the constant motion capture the relentless "hurry" of Alexander Hamilton’s life. It is a masterclass in how modern movement can elevate traditional musical theater. Hamilton is more than just a musical -- it is a powerful reminder of the beauty of live performance. Watching my daughter be inspired by such high-level artistry made an already special night absolutely perfect: it wasn't just a night at the theater, it was a powerful reminder of why we love the arts.

I saw Hamilton twice, slightly different cast, different seating, both times a fantastic experience. First of all, Mirandas score and lyrics are absolutely fantastic! To enjoy the performance, people should absolutely make themselves familiar with the story and the music on beforehand - otherwise, it must be really overwhelming. I heard the music several times, saw the film once and read part of the Chernow book, and all of this heightened the experience. The London cast was fabulous! On the first night, Jay Perry as Aaron Burr and the Adam J Bernard (understudy) as Hamilton. This was my favorite night. The second night, the Manaia Glassey-Ohlson as Aaron Burr and Alex Sawyer as Hamilton. They were excellent, I just personally favored the interpretation of Perry and Bernard. Of other actors, I was so very impressed with * Hume as George Washington! He absolutely embodied Washington, as general and as president * Yeukayi Ushe as Jefferson (and Lafayette) * Jordan Caste as Hercules Mulligan. His elegance & comedic wit!! Emily-Mae and Bente Mulan were excellent, their roles just give less possibility for the kind of individuality that other actors got to display in Jefferson and Mulligan. A note for Miranda's next work, maybe? Seating: * In early January, it was NOT hot! * I personally preferred being in Stalls, row B - I loved being so close to the actors and I had no problem with vision. I am tall, though, and did not have a tall person in front of me. Good leg space (am 175 cm) * Second night I was in Royal Circle, row B and that was uncomfortable leg space-wise. There were a few things that I saw better than from the stalls, but there were also things I saw from stalls that were not visible when in Royal Circle. Do go watch it - unless you dislike rap and political history!
