Tickets Available for Lin-Manuel Miranda’s appearance at Hamilton College
Clinton, N.Y. – A very limited number of tickets for Lin-Manuel Miranda’s appearance at Hamilton College will be made available to the general public beginning on Wednesday, Sept. 10, at 9 a.m. To obtain free tickets to the event, visit hamilton.edu/greatnames.
As with all Sacerdote Great Names events, the College distributes tickets only for the number of seats available in the venue.
Miranda, composer, creator, and star of the Tony Award-winning musical Hamilton, will appear on Monday, Sept. 29, at 7 p.m., in the College’s Margaret Bundy Scott Field House. Miranda will engage in a conversation on stage with Broadway producer and three-time Tony winner Eric Kuhn, a 2009 Hamilton College alumnus.
An award-winning songwriter, actor, director, and producer, Miranda began writing the song-and-rap Broadway smash Hamilton in 2008 after reading Ron Chernow’s biography of Alexander Hamilton. The writing and development process continued until the musical’s premiere in 2015. Hamilton received the 2016 Pulitzer Prize in Drama and earned a record-breaking 16 Tony nominations, of which it won 11, including two for Miranda for Book and Score of a Musical. The original Broadway cast recording of Hamilton won the 2016 Grammy Award for Best Musical Theater Album.
Miranda also created and starred in the Broadway musical In the Heights, contributed music and lyrics to Disney’s Moana, wrote original songs for Disney’s Academy Award-winning Encanto, and made his film directorial debut with tick, tick… BOOM! He has received a MacArthur Foundation Award, the National Arts Club Medal of Honor, and stars on both the Puerto Rico and Hollywood Walks of Fame.
Parking and shuttle information will be available soon at hamilton.edu/greatnames. Guests who need special assistance accommodations should call 315-859-4529.
