Theater fans can rejoice because Hamilton finally premiered at the Hollywood Pantages Theatre.
The first preview for Lin-Manuel Miranda's big hit is scheduled for 6:30 p.m. on Friday, much to the anticipation of fans who purchased tickets when they came out in late April.
Opening night will be held Aug. 16. Tickets are still available for the musical.
The play focuses on the story of one of America's Founding Fathers, Alexander Hamilton. It features a score that blends a variety of genres that awarded the original Broadway cast recording a Grammy for Best Musical Theatre Album in 2016.
Book, music and lyrics were created by Miranda while Thomas Kail directs and Andy Blankenbuehler choreographs.
The Pantages is offering orchestra seats starting at $650, while verified resale tickets are available from $236 for rear mezzanine.
Not to fret if your fiscal budget cannot cover those prices, for the Pantages is offering a $10 ticket lottery for all performances. The lottery will raffle 40 orchestra seats for each performance.
