Is Hamilton the most popular Broadway musical ever?

Yes, there is a lot of hoopla regarding this musical. It is breaking the mold with the use of hip hop and a multiracial cast, so I think that is one reason it is getting so much attention-it is a very different musical than we have seen in the past. On e can make the case that currently, compared to other shows that are running now, it IS the most popular musical.

It’s going to be very hard to tell for a while. Hamilton has had quite clearly the most successful first year in a musical’s history, largely on the basis of demand for tickets and the staggeringly successful cast album. The critical success has, likewise, been unprecedentedly great— the show is essentially without detractors.
