But, don’t get too excited. Mirvish Productions says a touring production of the 11-time Tony Award-winning show will be part of its 2019–20 subscription season.
Two years is a long time.

Here’s more bad news: because it’s part of a tour, it won’t be a sit-down production, so it will only be limited run, making tickets even harder to come by.
Catch me in 2019 spending a months rent on a ticket to see Hamilton in Toronto

It gets worse.
ICYMI To have a shot at Hamilton tickets for Toronto you will need to buy the entire season of Mirvish shows, otherwise it's online & big $ pic.twitter.com/7RgCGfT47g

Thrilled that HAMILTON finally coming to Toronto as part of @Mirvish 19/20 season. Though was really hoping for a Canadian cast sit-down… pic.twitter.com/7McQpiqNq7

So, unless you’re a Mirvish subscriber willing to pay for the whole season, tickets will be nearly impossible to come by.
