So, you wanna know when Hamilton was in LA, huh? Well, buckle up, buttercup, because we're about to dive into a historical deep dive.

A Brief History of Hamilton in LA (or Lack Thereof)
Let's get one thing straight: Alexander Hamilton, the Founding Father who wrote those ridiculously catchy lyrics about “non-stop” and “yo,” was never in LA. Like, ever. The man was more of a New York kind of guy. So, if you were hoping for a juicy anecdote about Hamilton surfing in Malibu or attending a Hollywood premiere, I'm sorry to burst your bubble.
QuickTip: Skim first, then reread for depth.
But fear not, history buff! We can still talk about Hamilton, just not in the context of LA.
QuickTip: Revisit this post tomorrow — it’ll feel new.
When Did Hamilton the Musical Hit LA?
Now, this is where things get interesting. If you’re talking about the musical Hamilton, well, that's a different story. This hip-hop-infused masterpiece about the life of Alexander Hamilton did indeed grace the stage of the Hollywood Pantages Theatre.
QuickTip: Read again with fresh eyes.
The musical opened in LA on August 17, 2021, and, unfortunately, had to pause for a bit due to the pesky little pandemic. But fear not, Hamilfans! The show resumed performances and concluded its run on March 20, 2023. So, if you missed it, you'll have to wait for the next tour or a potential revival.
