We finally did it! We are going to see Hamilton . We have seats reserved at the Overture Center for Arts in beautiful Madison, WI. This stunning architectural landmark is conveniently located within walking distance to galleries, museums, great restaurants, and shopping. We will head to Madison in the early afternoon. When we arrive, you will have free time to explore the area and grab dinner on your own. Make your way to the theater for the amazingly popular Broadway production of Hamilton . Doors open at 6:15 p.m., perfor- mance begins at 7:30 p.m. Hamilton is the story of America then, told by America now. Featuring a score that blends hip-hop, jazz, R&B and Broadway, Hamilton has taken the story of American found- ing father Alexander Hamilton and created a revolutionary moment in theatre—a musical that has had a profound impact on culture, politics and education. With book, music and lyrics by Lin-Manuel Miranda, direction by Thomas Kail, choreography by Andy Blankenbuehler and musical supervision and orchestrations by Alex Lacamoire, Hamilton is based on Ron Chernow’s acclaimed biography. It has won Tony®, Grammy® and Olivier Awards, the Pulitzer Prize for Drama and an unprecedented special citation from the Kennedy Center Honors.
