Hamilton received near-universal critical praise, including from New York Theatre Guide. Our five-star review reads, "Hamilton is a magnificent tapestry where all the elements of theatre are called upon to be their very best... The end result is something much more than the story of one man. It is the story of how we each create our destiny and our mark on the world."
