Leslie Odom Jr. returns to Broadway’s HAMILTON as Aaron Burr
Tony and Grammy Award-winning, three-time Emmy and two-time Academy Award-nominated performer Leslie Odom, Jr. will make a highly anticipated return to Broadway this Autumn in his critically acclaimed, Tony Award-winning role as Aaron Burr in Hamilton.
The original star is set to reprise his wildly successful and iconic portrayal of Aaron Burr, which comes nine years after he took his final bow in July 2016.
Odom begins performances on 9 September for a strictly limited engagement until 23 November at Broadway’s Richard Rodgers Theatre.
This return engagement comes as Hamilton prepares to mark a major milestone: the revolutionary musical will celebrate its tenth anniversary on Broadway this summer, on 6 August 2025.
Leslie Odom, Jr. said: “Returning to Hamilton is a deeply meaningful homecoming. I’m so grateful for the chance to step back into the room—especially during this anniversary moment—and to revisit this brilliant piece that forever changed my life and the lives of so many.”
Last season, Odom made his Broadway return as a producer and star in the acclaimed revival of Purlie Victorious: A Non-Confederate Romp Through the Cotton Patch by Ossie Davis. The production earned six Tony Award nominations, including one for Odom’s performance, and aired as part of PBS’ “Great Performances.”
