From the Executive Director

Welcome to the Morrison Center!

We have been waiting, and now you are in the room where it happens. HAMILTON in Boise will mark a record three-week run, and there is still plenty of Broadway in Boise season yet to come.

Lin-Manuel Miranda’s HAMILTON tells the story of American Founding Father Alexander Hamilton that debuted on Broadway on August 6, 2015. Since then it has won 11 Tony awards, including Best Musical. It utilizes musical styles of hip-hop, R&B, pop, soul, and traditional-style show tunes. Miranda describes the show “American then, as told by America now.”

How lucky we are to be alive right now! We are eager to share that on December 9, 2021, Boise State University is providing a matinee of the show to degree-seeking students, for $15 a ticket. This musical resonates across generations, and we are excited to have an all-student audience to welcome the HAMILTON cast to campus.

We have more fun in store for the rest of the season —

A sweet start to 2022 and fun for the entire family Roald Dahl’s CHARLIE AND THE CHOCOLATE FACTORY will take hold of your imagination from January 14-16th.

A stunning production of ANASTASIA debuts in Boise from February 25-27th. DEAR EVAN HANSEN, a beautiful and charming show and winner of six Tony Awards, including Best Musical, will premiere in June.

Whether you have seen HAMILTON dozens of times, or this is your first, we welcome you!

See you in the seats,

Laura Kendall
