'Hamilton' gets a second national tour because we deserve something nice
If you're wondering if the Hamilton buzz has died down, it hasn't. The Tony-winning musical, which continues to sell out its New York and Chicago residencies, is going to get a second national tour in 2018.
"There has been tremendous interest in the show from markets across the country," producer Jeffrey Seller said in a release. "The best way to get the show in front of as many people as possible is to form a new company to crisscross the country. Beginning in 2018 more than 8000 people a night will have the opportunity to see the show somewhere in North America. Indeed, Hamilton is for everyone."
The musical's first national tour just got underway, beginning in San Francisco on March 10. The second will begin in Seattle on Feb. 6, 2018. A London production is scheduled to open in November.
So, what cities made the next cut for a slice of the Ham?
