RICHMOND, Va. -- Four years after its record-breaking debut on Broadway in New York City, HAMILTON has arrived in Richmond. The three-week, 24-show engagement runs November 19 thru December 8, 2019, at the Altria Theater.

"A limited number of tickets for each performance will be sold to winners of a random lottery drawing from all entries. A separate lottery will be held for each performance. Winners can only purchase up to two $10 tickets ($20 Total)," the explanation of the process posted to the HAMILTON app read. "Entries for the lottery for each performance will be accepted until 9 a.m. the day before the performance. Winner and non-winner notifications will be sent through the App at approximately 11 a.m. the day before the performance via push notifications if the user has enabled push notifications."

The Richmond performances have been added to the HAMILTON app . Of course the odds of winning the lottery are not great, so don't rely on this method if you REALLY want to see the show.
