The Broward Center describes the musical as the story of Founding Father Alexander Hamilton, based on Ron Chernow’s biography and set to a score that blends hip-hop, jazz, R&B and Broadway. Lin-Manuel Miranda wrote the book, music and lyrics. The official North American tour page confirms the Fort Lauderdale stop through Nov. 22.

What to know before you go

The Broward Center recommends Hamilton for ages 10 and up and notes that it contains some strong language. The listed runtime is 2 hours and 45 minutes, with one intermission. Infants are not allowed in the theater. Children ages 5 and older may attend but must have their own ticket; the venue says all attendees need a ticket.

If an evening outing is difficult to fit in, the scheduled matinees fall on Nov. 14, 15, 21 and 22. A matinee can also make it easier to pair the performance with a meal or another Fort Lauderdale stop. For any date, check the venue listing before heading out for the latest ticket and performance information.
