One of the main reasons why Times Square is so popular is the sheer amount of theaters along Broadway, in Lincoln Center, and the Theater District. You can catch award-winning plays and musicals all year long. The area is busiest during annual festivities, especially New Year’s Eve.

Walking to the theater where it plays the musical Hamilton
Inside the theater – the muscial Hamilton is a sung-and-rapped-through musical with music, lyrics, and a book by Lin-Manuel Miranda, based on the 2004 book Alexander Hamilton by Ron Chernow. The musical tells the story of American Founding Father Alexander Hamilton.
Alexander Hamilton is one of the founding fathers, but he is not well known to the public. This musical wants to change that. He did many good things for the country; his face is on $10 bills.
