    HAMILTON: Sands Theatre, Marina Bay Sands *Top Family-Friendly Events In Singapore

    Hailed as a theatrical masterpiece, the Tony®, Grammy®, Olivier, and Pulitzer Prize-winning musical “Hamilton” narrates the tale of America’s past through the lens of contemporary America. The New York Times describes it as a “theatrical landmark” that revolutionized both theatre and historical interpretation. With a groundbreaking fusion of hip-hop, jazz, R&B, and Broadway, “Hamilton” reshapes the narrative of Alexander Hamilton, a founding father, into a transformative theatrical experience, leaving an indelible mark on culture, politics, and education. Crafted by Lin-Manuel Miranda with direction by Thomas Kail, choreography by Andy Blankenbuehler, and musical supervision by Alex Lacamoire, the musical draws inspiration from Ron Chernow’s acclaimed biography.
