Those interested will be able to register from 5:15 to 7:15 PM in front of the Richard Rodgers Theatre (226 W. 46th St.), where Hamilton performs.
New York State and local primaries will be held September 13 with the deadline to register August 19. Members of the cast who participate in the registration have been trained by voter registration volunteers from the Hispanic Federation, an organization providing community services to the Hispanic community in New York, New Jersey, and Connecticut.
Hamilton producer Jeffrey Seller stated,
"Voting honors our democracy; honors our founding fathers; and honors the spirit of our show. We want to do our part to help all citizens participate in an election that will deeply affect the direction of our country.”
Hamilton is the story of America's Founding Father Alexander Hamilton, an immigrant from the West Indies who became George Washington's right-hand man during the Revolutionary War and was the new nation’s first Treasury Secretary.
The musical won 11 2016 Tony Awards, including Best Musical, Score, Book of a Musical, Direction of a Musical, Choreography, and Orchestrations.
