Hamilton

The bad news: Performances of Hamilton have been canceled again, and this time they’re through June 2021. But raise a glass: The touring production of Lin-Manuel Miranda’s immeasurably popular musical will relaunch in October 2021. Awesome. Wow.

Before the world turned upside down, the hip-hop history of Alexander Hamilton’s life had just returned to the Pantages Theater for a run that was initially slated through September and then extended through November. But as events across L.A. were canceled, so too progressively were performances of Hamilton—initially for just a few weeks but eventually for a year and a half. Its new run dates: October 12, 2021 through January 2, 2022 (The Lion King will be occupying the theater over the summer).
