Hamilton West End tickets


The infamous Hamilton musical, a sung-and-rapped-through production about the life of American Founding Father Alexander Hamilton with music, lyrics and a book by Lin-Manuel Miranda, has taken the West End's Victoria Palace Theatre by storm.

Hamilton West End may be miles from the USA, but it tells the story of America’s Founding Father Alexander Hamilton, an immigrant from the West Indies who became George Washington’s right-hand man during the Revolutionary War and was the new nation’s first Treasury Secretary. Featuring a score that blends hip-hop, jazz, blues, rap, R&B, and Broadway, Hamilton tickets give you the oppurtunity to witness the story of America then, told by America now.

The hit musical also details the lives of other important figures in American history, including former US presidents Thomas Jefferson, James Madison, and George Washington as well as Aaron Burr, Angelica Schuyler, Elizabeth Schuyler Hamilton, Gilbert du Motier, Hercules Mulligan, John Laurens, Marquis de Lafayette, Peggy Schuyler, and Philip Hamilton.

A Presidential Affair

The spectacularly successful hit Broadway musical made its off-Broadway debut at The Public Theatre in February 2015 and quickly sold out. Hamilton later transferred to Broadway’s Richard Rodgers Theatre in August 2015, opening to rave reviews and enthusiastic critical acclaim -and it goes without saying, that Hamilton tickets became extremely popular!

The Hamilton musical on Broadway has won a Grammy Award for Best Theater Album and Pulitzer Prize for Drama. The off-Broadway production received 14 nominations while the Broadway production has been nominated for an all-time record-setting 16 Tony Awards. The West End transfer of Hamilton is noted for winning seven Olivier Awards in 2018, including the award for Best New Musical.

The Hamilton film was released nearly a year and a half before its intended theatrical release at a time when people around the world were in desperate need of entertainment. The taped Broadway performance was just the ticket for an entertaining night at home. Hamilton Disney Plus cast stars the show’s creator Lin-Manuel Miranda in the titular role.

Critical Acclaim And Fun Facts

  • The original cast album has sold millions of copies worldwide, attracting the likes of former President Barack Obama, Oprah Winfrey, and creator Lin-Manuel Miranda's fellow Broadway star Ben Platt.
  • The Hamilton musical is a delightful and genre-defying fusion of style, wordplay, historical references and emotional depth.
  • Lin-Manuel Miranda was vacationing in Mexico when he came across author Ron Chernow's biography of Hamilton, after reading it, he began to wonder - what would the founding father's life look like as a musical?
  • Hamilton was composed over a seven-year period from 2008 to 2015. It was definitely worth the wait!
  • Hamilton is historically accurate, with both the story and the lyrics being thoroughly researched. An example of this is that lines from personal letters and other documents and often featured in the song's lyrics. 
  • The Guardian ranked the Hamilton musical the second-greatest theatrical work since 2000.

Who are the main characters in Hamilton?

Who are the main characters in Hamilton?

Lin-Manuel Miranda's award-winning musical Hamilton has made a significant impact since its debut, transitioning from Broadway to the West End in 2017. The show has garnered numerous accolades, redefining the musical landscape with its innovative blend of hip-hop, rap, and R&B, differentiating from the traditional musical style. 

The compelling narrative and incredible score bring to life the lesser-known story of Alexander Hamilton, one of America's founding fathers. The show explores Hamilton's pivotal role in the American Revolution, his role as the first Secretary of the Treasury under George Washington, and his complex personal life, including his relationship with his wife, Eliza Hamilton. The production, staged at the Victoria Palace Theatre, captivates audiences with its characters. Take a look at the Hamilton characters below.  

Who are the main Hamilton characters? 

The characters in the show are based on the real men and women involved in the American Revolution and the American democracy. The show offers a fresh, modern take on the American Revolution by reimagining its historic figures as diverse characters reflecting today's multicultural America. 

Alexander Hamilton 

Alexander Hamilton, his name is Alexander Hamilton and he is the star of the show! The character of Alexander Hamilton is portrayed as a tenacious and ambitious founding father whose life is marked by both triumph and tragedy. Hamilton's dedication to his ideals and career is both celebrated and criticised by those around him, reflecting the complex nature of his personality and relationships. His ambition often comes at a personal cost, as he prioritises his career over his marriage, leading to tension and envy among his peers. 

Aaron Burr 

Aaron Burr serves as both narrator and rival to Alexander Hamilton. Unlike Hamilton, who is outspoken and eager to share his political beliefs, Burr is more cautious and reserved, often holding his cards close to his chest. His reluctance to openly declare his stance can make him appear untrustworthy to others. This contrast in values and methods highlights the tension between the two men, ultimately leading to their infamous duel. 

Eliza Hamilton 

As the wife of Alexander Hamilton, Eliza's journey throughout the show is one of resilience, loyalty, and profound emotional depth. From her first meeting with Alexander Hamilton, her character is portrayed as loving and devoted, yet she faces numerous personal challenges and heartbreaks. Her unwavering loyalty is tested by her husband's infidelities and political ambitions.  

King George III 

King George III is portrayed as immature and spoiled, which underscores his role as the main antagonist. This is particularly true when he performs the song “You’ll Be Back,” which defines his entitlement and over-the-top behaviour. His character juxtaposes the other characters, using humour and immaturity to contrast with more serious or noble figures.  

George Washington  

The first president of the US, George Washington’s portrayal highlights his strong-willed nature and confidence, which contrast with Alexander Hamilton's impulsive and ambitious demeanour. Despite their differences, Washington recognizes Hamilton's brilliance and potential, often acting as a mentor, guiding him through the complexities of governance. 

Thomas Jefferson  

Thomas Jefferson emerges as one of Alexander Hamilton's most formidable political rivals, embodying a stark contrast to Hamilton's ideals. Jefferson's character is portrayed with a flamboyant flair and charismatic presence, which brings both humour and tension into the narrative. 

Angelica Schuyler  

Angelica Schuyler, is portrayed as an intelligent and articulate woman deeply devoted to her family, particularly her sisters. Despite her instant connection with Alexander Hamilton, Angelica prioritises her sister Eliza's happiness and future, choosing to step aside and encourage the relationship between Hamilton and Eliza.

Everything you need to know about the Hamilton songs

Everything you need to know about the Hamilton songs

Lin Manuel Miranda changed musical theatre forever when his groundbreaking rapthrough show, Hamilton, hit the Broadway stage. Since then, it’s become a global phenomenon.

There are 46 Hamilton songs in total. So, learn more about them with our breakdown so you can stay ahead of the game when you’re in the room where the musical happens… the Victoria Palace Theatre

All of the Hamilton songs in order

Hamilton Act One songs

Alexander Hamilton 

Performed by Aaron Burr and the rest of the supporting cast, Alexander Hamilton tells us the early history of the title character. When we meet the man himself, we hear of his ambition and determination to make a name for himself.

The song was originally part of the Hamilton Mixtape project, which evolved into the Hamilton musical we know today. In 2009, Lin Manuel Miranda performed the first iteration at a poetry jam at the White House. In 2016, Miranda and the original Broadway Cast performed Alexander Hamilton and other Hamilton songs at the White House once again. This time, the world knew both their names. 

Aaron Burr, Sir

When Alexander Hamilton arrives in New York, he meets Aaron Burr and tries to make a kinship with him. This is the first of the Hamilton songs that show the stark difference between Hamilton and Burr’s approach to life and politics. We also meet the group of young, brash soldiers who will become Hamilton’s buddies in arms. 

My Shot

The ferocious song is the first time we hear about Hamilton’s confidence, drive and plans from the man himself. The ambitious and, in some ways, naive student aligns his ideals with his friends, and they begin their journey to the revolution.

It’s the first time we see the overly confident Hamilton as vulnerable, thanks to a quick aside towards the end of the song.

The Story of Tonight 

Firmly part of the group, Hamilton, Lafayette, Mulligan and Laurens drink to their freedom and the start of the impending war. 

The Schuyler Sisters

Harmonious. The best way to describe the Schuyler Sisters song and the sibling trio.  As each sister is introduced, we learn that they are intelligent, vivacious, savvy, and excited about their prospects. We also learn that soldiers and young men are seeking them out thanks to their wealth and position in society. 

Farmer Refuted

When a farmer comes and disputes with Hamilton and his friends, Hamilton unleashes his sharp tongue to break down the farmer’s message and ideas.

You’ll Be Back

Performed by King George III, You’ll Be Back has a completely different style and tone from other Hamilton songs. Dismayed at the impending American War of Independence, the King threatens the rebels with violence and suffering, believing they’ll regret their actions with time.

Right-Hand Man

As the American Revolutionary War kicks off, Hamilton has his eyes set on a position of command in the Continental Army. Knowing he needs the approval of General George Washington, Hamilton attempts to prove his worth. While Hamilton speaks with his actions and impresses Washington, Burr attempts to charm the leader but is rebuffed.  It’s the first time we meet the larger-than-life George Washington and he imposes his presence, leadership, and humanity.

A Winter’s Ball 

Burr’s bitterness and jealousy grow as Hamilton’s career in the army progresses. But as a distraction, the men are excited about a ball and the prospect of meeting the eligible ladies in society.

Helpless

When the middle Schuyler sister, Eliza, meets Alexander Hamilton, she instantly falls in love. Helpless covers their brief dating history before they get married. During the song, we hear references to 1990s and early 2000s R&B songs, as well as a hint that Angelica may have feelings for Alexander. 

Satisfied

At Alexander and Eliza’s wedding, the eldest sister, Angelica, makes a toast to the loving couple. But while she celebrates their union on the surface, she reflects on the affection she feels for the groom. Knowing her familial obligations, she sacrifices her feelings in favour of Eliza’s. 

The Story of Tonight (Reprise)

At Hamilton’s wedding, his friends celebrate his marriage and Alexander’s new status in life and society. We also see the way Burr is viewed by his peers. While the group mocks Burr, Hamilton is supportive and friendly.

Wait For It

While Hamilton's tenacity is proving successful, Burr decides to take a different tact and play the long game. Obsessed with control and doing things properly, he decides to wait for his opportunity. 

Stay Alive

As the war progresses and resources are dwindling, morale is low. Washington and Hamilton plan to move the effort forward. All the while, Washington prevents Hamilton from going into battle, favouring others who turn out to be weaker options.

Ten Duel Commandments 

When Hamilton is ordered not to address false allegations made against Washington, Laurens steps up to challenge Charles Lee. They enter a duel, and we hear a set of unspoken rules. These rules are repeated in several Hamilton songs throughout the show. 

Meet Me Inside

When Lee is shot, Washington confronts Hamilton for his defiance. The pair comes to blows, which results in Hamilton being sent home.

That Would Be Enough

When Alexander arrives home, he discovers why Washington prevented him from entering harm's way. Eliza is expecting their first child.

Guns and Ships

One of the most challenging songs to perform in musical theatre, Guns and Ships is a speed rap performed in a French accent. Originated by and written with speed rapper Daveed Diggs in mind, the explosive song details the desperate efforts made by the Americans with the support of Marquis de Lafayette. With victory in sight, Washington asks Hamilton to return and lead the troops into battle. 

History Has Its Eyes On You

Reflecting on his past mistakes, Washington helps Hamilton realise there’s more to their actions than the moment. Everything they do on the battlefield will be recorded in the history books, and they can’t control that narrative. 

Yorktown (The World Turned Upside Down)

In the battle that changed American history forever, Hamilton and Lafayette utter one of the most famous lyrics of all the Hamilton songs, “Immigrants, we get the job done.” 

With his pregnant wife waiting at home and victory within their grasp, we hear the plans to win the battle of Yorktown.

The grand ensemble song is an adrenaline-pumping number that brings a new era to America and the show. 

What Comes Next?

After the Americans defeat the British, we hear King George III’s reaction.

Dear Theodosia

As Burr and Hamilton welcome their respective children into the world, the pair vow to provide a better world and life for them.

Non-Stop

As Hamilton and Burr’s lives continue in parallel, we once again see the differences between them. While Hamilton’s brash and confident manner sees him excel, Burr’s proper approach leaves him in Hamilton’s shadow. 

While Burr is cautious and afraid, Hamilton’s rewarded and made the Secretary of the Treasury.

Throughout the song, we hear of the growing friction between Hamilton and his friends and family.

Victoria Palace Theatre Best Seats

News / Features

Victoria Palace Theatre Best Seats

London’s Victoria Palace Theatre is a Grade II listed building which has been home to many large scale productions, including the popular musicals Billy Elliot, Annie, Fame, The Buddy Holly Story and most recently Hamilton. The original structure began life as the Royal Standard Hotel and was extended to become Moy’s Music Hall in 1850 until it was demolished in 1910, before being rebuilt by prolific theatre architect Frank Matcham and opening to the public a year later. With so much history in this building, there’s a lot to take in! So where’s the best place to sit and soak up the atmosphere? We’ve taken a detailed look at the Victoria Palace Theatre seating plan to give you the best options!

What are the best seats at the Victoria Palace Theatre?

There are three floors at the Victoria Palace Theatre; the Stalls, which are located on the ground floor, offer over half of the allocated seating of the building! The 717 plush red chairs are a top choice for those wanting to be immersed in the action on stage.

The Royal Circle is located above the stalls offering excellent views of the stage, and unlike some other theatres of its age it does not have any pillars creating restricted views within its auditorium.

The Grand Circle on the third floor of the theatre is severely raked, which means every row gets an excellent view of the stage. However, the legroom isn’t as roomy as the levels below, which is something to consider if you’re quite tall!
