One of the coolest features about Hamilton is the ability to enter for $10 tickets in a daily lottery. The additional locations for Richmond and Norfolk will be added to the page come fall. It is not recommended to use the lottery method if you really want to see the show since the tickets are not guaranteed.

In case you need a reminder or are new to the show, Hamilton tells the compelling story of Alexander Hamilton through entertaining music. The musical adds a modern twist by including genres such as rap and hip-hop.
