Lin-Manuel Miranda Launches Contest to See HAMILTON in Puerto Rico

Lin-Manuel Miranda and Prizeo announced today that fans now have the chance to win the trip of a lifetime to attend opening night of Hamilton in Puerto Rico on January 11, 2019. For more information or to enter, visit Prizeo.com/Ham4PR.

Miranda is returning to his lead role as Alexander Hamilton for 24 performances only when he brings HAMILTON to the island January 8-27, 2019. This is the first, and only, scheduled time he will return to the role since leaving the original Broadway cast in 2016.

For a $10 donation to the Flamboyan Arts Fund at Prizeo.com/Ham4PR, one lucky winner and a guest will win VIP tickets to opening night of Hamilton in Puerto Rico, tickets to the opening night after-party with Lin-Manuel Miranda and the cast, and a signed and framed photo with him, in addition to roundtrip airfare and hotel accommodations in San Juan. Multiple surprise rewards will also be announced throughout the duration of the Prizeo campaign.

Miranda and his family and the producers of Hamilton have partnered with the Flamboyan Foundation to create the Flamboyan Arts Fund to preserve, amplify, and sustain the arts in Puerto Rico. The fund supports all facets of the arts community including music, theater, visual arts, dance, literature, and youth arts education to ensure that the arts and culture continue to flourish during the rebuilding of Puerto Rico.

"Puerto Rico is my family's home - I used to spend summers there. The island is very much a part of who I am as a person and as an artist," said Miranda. "I always knew I wanted to bring Hamilton to Puerto Rico and now, in the wake of Hurricane Maria, it makes even more sense to work with Prizeo to raise funds for the arts, while getting to spend time with a lucky winner who is excited about both Hamilton and supporting efforts in Puerto Rico."

Marriott International is the official Hotel sponsor for Hamilton in Puerto Rico, offering the Grand Prize Hotel Stay at the exotic sanctuary of Dorado Beach, a Ritz Carlton Reserve.

Round trip airfare is provided for by JetBlue.

The Hamilton Puerto Rico Prizeo campaign runs until October 29th at Prizeo.com/Ham4PR.
