You will have to wait a year longer if you were
planning on seeing the Broadway hit musical Hamilton
at the Straz Center in Tampa this June. The show
has been rescheduled for November 15-December

to the coronavirus pandemic. If you already have

engagement of Hamilton is still only available for Straz
