You don’t have to make the trek to NYC, Chicago or even Orlando to see Hamilton anymore. The wildly popular musical is coming to Tampa Bay’s Straz Center this winter.

Lin-Manuel Miranda’s hit musical tells the story of America through hip-hop, rap, jazz, and Broadway music — with a diverse cast.

Tickets on sale today at noon. Book online at www.strazcenter.org or call 813.229.827. Buyers are limited to 8 tickets — which range from $49 to $169, with premium seats available for $229.

The show runs from Dec. 28 — Jan. 22, 2023. Plus, there will be a $10 ticket lottery for all performances (details to come).

Raymond James Stadium is full of Bucs fans. There is sun shining on some of the stadium, with shadow creeping across from the near side to the far side. Floodlights are beginning to turn on as players warm up on the field, and the mostly blue sky sits ahead.
