The national tour of the hit Broadway musical “Hamilton” will play the Buell Theatre as part of the Denver Center for the Performing Arts’ 2017-18 Broadway subscription series, the Denver Center for the Performing Arts and producer Jeffrey Seller announced Friday.

“Hamilton” recently won 11 Tony awards, including honors for best musical, score and book. The show tells the story of American founding father Alexander Hamilton with a score that blends hip-hop, jazz, blues, rap and R&B.

Patrons who renew their DCPA Broadway series subscription package for the season will have guaranteed tickets to “Hamilton.” Information on the show’s dates and how to purchase group and single tickets will be announced at a later time.

The DCPA is currently promoting its 2016-17 Broadway subscription package, featuring the pre-Broadway debut of “Frozen,” “The Phantom of the Opera,” Roundabout Theatre Company’s “Cabaret,” “An Act of God,” “Finding Neverland,” “Fun Home,” “An American in Paris” and “The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time.” Information at denvercenter.org

The touring production of “Hamilton” will begin at the SHN Orpheum Theatre in San Francisco with performances starting in March 2017 and at the Hollywood Pantages Theatre in Los Angeles from Aug. 11 through December. An open-ended production is also set to open Sept. 27 in Chicago as part of the “Broadway in Chicago” series at the PrivateBank Theatre.

Open call auditions have been held since May for the touring cast.

Denver’s inclusion in the national tour speaks to the city’s reputation as a strong theater market. “We make these decisions based on the size of the market and the power of the market to sell tickets for long periods of time,” producer Seller said in announcing the initial tour cities.
