Do they sell Hamilton souvenir programs at the Richard Rodgers Theatre? I could not find them to order online.

Hi, Unfortunately, they do not have souvenir programs at the theater. I saw it for the fourth time on Friday, September 25th (so fairly recently) and there was still no sign of programs... though I have been told a larger selection of merchandise is forthcoming - let's hope it includes a program!

How about a keychain? My son collects then from his favorite shows and was disappointed they didn't have one on August
If we're not having fun, then why are we doing it?

No keychains yet. The small items they have are buttons, a lapel pin, magnets & a dog tag. The only new item they had when I went on 9/25 was souvenir cups if you purchased a drink at the bar (had the Hamilton logo imprinted in black on it). I'm going again on 11/17 (yes, I'm addicted - it will be my 5th time) - I'll post on here if there is anything new.

They've had the cups since sometime in August, as we have one. But thanks for the update.

May be holding off on a program, since Lin is writing a book about the show, which will probably include a lot of photos, etc,?

Thanks everyone for your responses. Hopefully they will have a souvenir program soon. Hope you enjoy the show tonight Steve C. I'm not seeing the show until December and can not wait!

There will be a hardcover book available in April (already available for presale on amazon). Supposedly it's going to explain all the references and the making of the show. I wouldn't think that would be in lieu of a souvenir program but who knows.

I'm sure they'll have a program pushdabutton.
I've already pre-odered the book.
Here's the description:
Hamilton has it all-romance, drama, violence, patriotism, adventure, and more-combine that with the foundational story of our nation, and you've got a book that's bound to be an American classic. "One of the most exhilarating experiences I've had in a theater." said David Brooks. "This show will be talked about in years to come as a benchmark experience," said Peter Marks, theater critic for the Washington Post. Audience members leave Hamilton wanting more--more details about the many dramatic episodes in Alexander Hamilton's life and further analysis of the musical's lyrics and their meaning. This book will include behind-the-scenes photos of the show and evokes the spirit of the musical, giving readers the same enthralling mix of history, personality, and inspiration that Miranda has achieved on stage.
Release date: April 12

Hiya push
Well there were still no souvenir programs as of last night. There were postcards, lobby cards, window posters and of course t-shirts and all the other stuff.
As for the show, WOw, WoW, wOW, whoosh! Just unbelievable! I don't like to spoil things but go,go,go. I can't wait to schedule my schedule and see it again. Now I can listen to my download i tunes and go over parts that I missed in the theater. The dialogue and songs are so rapid fire fast, at times, I missed some of the dialogue. Groff almost steals the show.
Let me know if you find any programs, I'd like to get one too.

Thanks for the description of the book tazber. I am definitely going to preorder one.
Thanks for sharing your thoughts about the show Steve C. I am so excited to see it this December. I wish I didn't have to wait so long. Hopefully they will have a program by then. I will probably pick up a window card.

Does the Playbill Store usually get most of the merchandise sold in the theaters? I'd love to get some of the postcards/pins/lobby cards but so far the Playbill selection is limited

You can try the gift store on the first floor of the Marriott Marquis, Schubert Alley store, and of course also the Triton Gallery.
Sometimes they get or have show merch even a week or two before the theater. I think though, if it's not at the theater then good luck.

I emailed the Hamilton merchandising company from their website in early September to ask about souvenir programs. They responded that one had just recently been approved and it was going to be printed. They did not give an estimated date as to when it would be available.
Tickets From $73
