Crossroads Live UK has launched a worldwide recruitment drive for production staff to support a new international tour of Hamilton. The tour is scheduled to begin its run across Asia in late 2026.
Why it matters
The move marks a significant expansion of the musical's global presence following its initial 2023-24 international tour. This hiring effort provides the logistical support necessary to bring the production to multiple new Asian markets.
Hamilton famously secured seven Olivier Awards and debuted in New York in 2015. The production will eventually utilize performance spaces like the 148-seat hall and the 5,000-square-metre dance house at the upcoming WestK Performing Arts Centre.
