‘Hamilton’ Returns to Pantages Theatre With Performance for L.A. Public High School Students
Wyatte Grantham-Philips editorAfter almost a month and a half with no performances, Broadway on Hollywood’s production of “Hamilton” returned to the Pantages Theatre on Wednesday with a special audience: 2,600 Los Angeles public high school students.“I can’t imagine a better way to start our last six weeks here in the Pantages,” James Viggiano, company manager for the Los Angeles company of “Hamilton,” told Variety — adding that the return also marks the production’s last leg at the Pantages. “The cast always looks forward to having a house full of students because it’s an energy unlike anything else.”As countless theaters across the country know all too well, the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic has led to significant delays and uncertainties for bringing live performances back to the stage.
