It was announced in April that “Hamilton” would soon be taking the stage at the Koger Center in Columbia.
But on Thursday, promoters said that single tickets for the 2024 performances of the smash-hit musical will go on sale beginning Nov. 2. Prior to this announcement, the only way to see “Hamilton,” or any of the other Broadway in Columbia performances, was to purchase season tickets.
Beginning at 10 a.m., single tickets for “Hamilton” will be available online at kogercenterforthearts.com via phone by calling 803-251-2222, or in person at the Koger Center box office on Park Street in downtown Columbia.
The cost of the tickets will range from $49 to $129, promoters said in a news release. There also will be a select number of premium seats available from $139 for all performances, as well as a lottery for 40 $10 seats for all performances, according to the release.
There is a maximum purchase limit of eight tickets per account for the engagement, promoters said.
“Hamilton” is scheduled to run at the Koger Center from Feb. 27 through March 10, 2024.
“It’s tempting to get tickets any way you can. There are many sites and people who are selling overpriced, and in some cases, fraudulent tickets,” show producer Jeffrey Seller said in the release. “For the best seats, the best prices and to eliminate the risk of counterfeit tickets, all purchases for the Columbia engagement should be made through kogercenterforthearts.com.”
This will be “Hamilton’s” only performance in the Carolinas on the current North American tour.
Promoters described “Hamilton” as the story of America presented in the theatrical telling of founding father Alexander Hamilton. Based on Ron Chernow’s acclaimed biography, “Hamilton” is the brainchild of Lin-Manuel Miranda, who’s credited with the show’s book, music and lyrics.
The musical features a score that blends hip-hop, jazz, R&B and Broadway to create “a revolutionary moment in theatre — a musical that has a profound impact on culture, politics, and education,” according to the release.
It has won Tony, Grammy and Olivier awards, the Pulitzer Prize for Drama, and an unprecedented special citation from the Kennedy Center Honors, according to the release.
A New York Times review of “Hamilton” called it a “theatrical landmark (that) has transformed theater and the way we think about history.”
