HAMILTON - MATINEE - FULL, WAITLIST

Even if you’re not a musical fan, you have a secret urge to see Hamilton. Why? You want to be clued into what everyone else is talking about. Just like you decide to watch that show on Netflix because you keep seeing memes about it and you want to get in on the joke.
But Hamilton is a lot more complicated than any Netflix show, at least, anyone set in current times. Since Hamilton is set in the past, not only does your brain have to keep track of the fast-moving plot, but it has to think about old customs and events, too. Remember that one history teacher you had who always tried to make class “fun?” Hamilton is what it would look like if they succeeded. Want a quick summary before you go? Here’s an outline of the Hamilton plot for dummies!
### Who is Hamilton?
Alexander Hamilton was never president, so let’s get that out of the way first. He was, however, central to America’s founding and the architect of how we think of capitalism, today.
### The Play Begins
When the curtains first go up, you’ll see young Alexander Hamilton, recounting how he was a bastard and now an orphan. There are quick references to how he pulled himself up by his bootstraps before it moves to war scenes. Hamilton makes some important friends on the battlefield, including George Washington.
He started out in a non-combat role in the war, drawing up plans and strategizing. But never happy Hamilton got bored of that and wanted in on the action. He was an integral part of the battle at Yorktown, VA, against General Cornwallis. If that rings a bell, it’s because that was the battle, in 1781, that won America the war. He doesn’t die in the war, and when it’s over he ends up meeting some very nice women. Those women are the Schuyler sisters, and they internally fight over him.
