“We are thrilled to offer our customers a piece of the groundbreaking musical Hamilton,” said Anne Keating, senior vice president of public relations, special events, and corporate philanthropy at Bloomingdale’s. “Bloomingdale’s seeks relevant, of-the-moment partnerships to excite our consumers and there is nothing more electrifying right now in pop culture than Hamilton.”
 
Hamilton is the story of America’s Founding Father Alexander Hamilton, an immigrant from the West Indies who became George Washington’s right-hand man during the Revolutionary War and was the new nation’s first Treasury Secretary. The Lin-Manuel Miranda musical is based on Ron Chernow’s biography of Alexander Hamilton. The musical is now on Broadway at the Richard Rodgers Theatre.
