Your best opportunity to see Lin-Manuel Miranda’s famous musical is to download the official Hamilton app. At 10 a.m. every Friday through the month of September, a lottery will open with an extremely limited number of tickets. App users will enter the lottery and later get a notification anywhere from 1 p.m. to 4 p.m. if they’ve won, after which they have two hours to purchase their tickets. If you’re not much of a gambler, about fifty seats are left for each showing at the Cincinnati Arts site at the time of this article’s writing.

Hamilton will play the Aronoff September 6 to October 6, Tuesday–Thursdays at 7:30 p.m., Fridays at 8 p.m., Saturdays at 2 p.m. and 8 p.m., Sundays at 1 p.m. and 7 p.m. Its hip-hop-infused retelling of America’s founding is the best-selling musical album of all time, and has won Tony, Grammy, and Olivier Awards throughout its run.

Tickets for Hamilton start at $59 are currently on sale. Check www.cincinnatiarts.org/events/detail/hamilton-1 for late release seats which may become available on short notice.
