Broadway Across Canada postponed showings of the popular musical because of the COVID-19 pandemic. The show—that tells the story of Alexander Hamilton, a founding father of the U.S.—was originally supposed to run at the NAC in 2020.
The lottery’s name “Ham4Ham” references the fact that Alexander Hamilton is pictured on the U.S. $10 bill.
