  • Sydney Welcomes Another Icon - Hamilton
    Sydney Welcomes Another Icon - Hamilton Mar 17, 2021 SYDNEY, March 17, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- Hamilton is one of the most critically acclaimed and successful musicals of our time. Since debuting in 2015, the Tony®, Grammy®, Olivier and Pulitzer Prize winning musical has sold over 2.6 million tickets, playing at iconic theatres from New York's Broadway to London's West End. And as of March 2021, this global phenomenon will only be playing in one location – Sydney's Lyric Theatre. Sydney is the vibrant capital of New South Wales, Australia. Home to the iconic Sydney Opera House and Sydney Harbour Bridge, the incredible Harbour City is renowned for its natural beauty, world-class dining, vibrant nightlife, multicultural heritage and rich and exciting arts and events scene, making it a sought-after tourism destination the world over. It is only fitting that the global city is now setting the stage to host an icon of the musical theatre world – Hamilton. Commenting on Sydney as the host city of the Australian premiere, original Hamilton producer Jeffrey Seller said: "Sydney is our bright light and our rising sun. Sydney represents what I hope will be the rebirth of theatre, and Hamilton across the entire world. It is thanks to Sydney that we can open Hamilton on schedule, as we have been planning for the past 3-plus years with the Michael Cassel Group." Hamilton will open this March at the Australian family owned and operated, 2,000 seat Sydney Lyric Theatre. Owned by the Found family of Foundation Theatres, Sydney Lyric Theatre is a staple of the NSW musical theatre scene.

As requested I attach two separate documents providing answers to the two questions asked me at the Inquiry as highlighted in yellow in the transcript. Yours sincerely Graham Quint Director, Advocacy The National Trust of Australia (New South Wales) ABN 82 491 958 802 FIRST QUESTION The Hon. SCOTT FARLOW: Considering the heritage significance that you have attributed to both the site itself and the site as a museum, why did it take the National Trust until after the Government had made the announcement in February 2015 to put them forward for listing? Mr QUINT: With many of these places we had assumed they were already on the State Heritage Register and the Government itself had nominated them or they had been noted by the State Government department section 160 heritage registers. Unfortunately, often when items change hands they drop off these registers and they are no longer listed and protected. At that point, as with the National Art School we then have to take action.
