Graeme Farrow, Wales Millennium Centre’s artistic director, said: "We know just how long people have had to wait for it, but now we know: next Christmas our Donald Gordon Theatre will finally be the room where it happens. What better way for us to celebrate our 20th anniversary?

"The story of Alexander Hamilton has taken the world by storm, so there was no way we could say no to this. I hope you'll buy your tickets and meet me inside."

Hamilton is the story of America then, told by America now.

Featuring a score which blends hip-hop, jazz, R&B and Broadway, Hamilton has taken the story of American founding father Alexander Hamilton and created a revolutionary moment in theatre - a musical which 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.
