APPLETON, WI (WTAQ) – A touring version of the hit Broadway musical Hamilton is coming to the Fox Valley.
It will take the Fox Cities Performing Arts Center stage during its 2019-2020 season.
The show tells the story of the founding fathers, with a musical score that blends various genres.
“Hamilton did a fantastic job breaking through those Broadway barriers and being part of the social conscience of everyone in their community.”
PAC President Maria Van Laanen says the only way to guarantee seats is to purchase tickets for the 2018-2019 season when they go on sale on March 5 and then renew them for the following year.
“Otherwise, for people who choose not to become season ticket holders, they’ll have to wait until the single-ticket date is announced later in 2019, most likely.”
Lawrence University Professor Kathy Privatt is excited. She’s been trying for months to get a ticket in Chicago.
“There are individual tickets going for $6,000. There are low-end tickets, if you want the worst seat in the house, you might be able to get one three months from now for $160, plus you’re going to need to drive three hours. The thought that people can literally buy season tickets to the PAC and know they’ll have a seat for Hamilton, that’s kind of astonishing.”
Individual ticket prices have not been announced.
