Concord Theatricals has announced it has secured exclusive worldwide secondary stage licensing rights for Lin-Manuel Miranda’s Hamilton.
The Tony Award®, Olivier Award, and Pulitzer Prize-winning musical will initially be made available to young performers through a Teen Edition, currently in development and expected to launch in 2028.
“I am thrilled that Hamilton is joining In The Heights and 21 Chump Street as part of the Concord Theatricals family,” said Lin-Manuel Miranda. “I fell in love with theater not by seeing a lot of Broadway shows, but via my parents’ vinyl cast albums and participating in our high school’s annual musicals. I’m excited to see students take on these roles and to share this story from school stages in their communities. It’s only a matter of time.”
Sean Patrick Flahaven, Chief Theatricals Executive of Concord, added: “We couldn’t be prouder to continue to represent Lin-Manuel’s work and to bring his astounding, game-changing show to educators and students worldwide. His genius combination of history, politics and dynamic music is unique and thrilling. And on a personal note, this is a full-circle moment, having had the honor to be involved in its development, production and recording.”
Hamilton tells the story of American founding father Alexander Hamilton through a score that blends hip-hop, jazz, R&B and Broadway. With book, music and lyrics by Lin-Manuel Miranda, direction by Thomas Kail, choreography by Andy Blankenbuehler and musical supervision and orchestrations by Alex Lacamoire, the musical is based on Ron Chernow’s acclaimed biography.
The production has won Tony®, GRAMMY® and Olivier Awards, the Pulitzer Prize for Drama, and an unprecedented special citation from the Kennedy Center Honors.
