Danganronpa Trigger Happy Havoc - The Musical!

Danganronpa Trigger Happy Havoc - The Musical!

Project Overview

DEADLINE WILL CONSTANTLY CHANGE UNTIL WE HAVE ENOUGH PEOPLE/I HAVE FINISHED WRITING!


WILL BE ADDING MORE DANGANRONPA 1 CHARACTERS OVER THE NEXT COUPLE OF DAYS!


Are you a fan of Danganronpa? Are you a fan of musicals? Then this project may interest you!



I am currently writing of musical version of Danganronpa: Trigger Happy Havoc and I am looking for talented singers and voice actors to help me out! At the moment, all you'll need to do is singing parody versions of pre-existing musical theatre songs. (For example, the opening number for this musical will be a parody of "In" from Carrie the Musical. Check the musical out if you haven't already!) I MAY end up writing scenes as well, but as of right now the musical will be singing only (in character, of course!)



This will be done on Smule. If you have a Smule account, then great! If you don't, it's very easy to get one! You can find it on the App Store, and it's free! It's a platform where singers and voice actors alike can share their performances.



Songs, after being recorded on Smule and posted there, will also be posted on a Tumblr blog and on YouTube. If anyone is uncomfortable with this for any reason, please let me know! I will make sure you are respected.



Ok, so. Roles! Here is the list of roles that are unfortunately taken:



  • Makoto Naegi

  • Byakuya Togami

  • Kyoko Kirigiri

  • Toko Fukawa 

  • Sayaka Maizono

  • Leon Kuwata

  • Kiyotaka Ishimaru

  • Celeste Ludenberg

  • Chihiro Fujisaki

  • Hifumi Yamada

  • Mukuro Ikusaba

  • Monokuma

  • Junko Enoshima 




I will be taking the role of Junko Enoshima in this, and I hope that is ok with you all.




This will NOT be the only Danganronpa Musical I am doing! I am writing songs for Danganronpa 2 and both arcs of the Dangan Ronpa 3 anime. So look out for those!



If you guys are interested, please comment your vocal range underneath your audition. If you don't know it, then please include the highest and lowest note you can comfortably sing in your audition.



Good luck guys and thank you for checking this out!

Latest Updates

  • First Round of Casting Complete!

    First of all, thank you so so much to everyone who auditioned. I had a tough time casting some roles, which is why I haven't cast every single role here yet. You are all so talented and I feel blessed to have so many of you want to take part in this project. That being said, the roles of Naegi, Togami, Asahina, Kuwata, Celeste and Maizono have been CAST! Congratulations to those who were casted. If you did not make it, PLEASE do not feel disheartened! I would STRONGLY encourage every single one of you to audition for Danganronpa 2 Goodbye Despair the Musical, Danganronpa 3 Future Arc the Musical and Danganronpa 3 Despair Arc the musical. I think a lot of you here, if not all of you, would be perfect for some roles from those. I would also advise you to perhaps audition for another role from this musical if you would like. You can audition for more than one musical, even if you were already cast in this one. However, if, say, you were cast as Makoto Naegi in Trigger Happy Havoc, you would keep this role for DR2 and DR3 Despair Arc the Musical so would be more likely to receive a smaller role if you did audition. I will be sending all cast members a link to the CAST ONLY discord server via PM, so look out for those. The casting call for DR2 Goodbye Despair the Musical WILL be up today (11/07). I will link it in this project's description, so please look out for that! Finally, if you guys want any feedback on your audition(s), please slide into my DMs. I'd be more than happy to give it. Whoa, I think that's it! Thank you everyone once again! <3
  • Hifumi Yamada, Sakura Oogami, and Sayaka Maizono added!

    All roles for this musical will now be open to audition for (hopefully!) and casting calls for Danganronpa 2: The Musical will start going up shortly. Thank you for your patience! You may have noticed that some of the roles are being cast to offsite actors. This is because I am also casting singers from the Smule app. Don't worry though, each audition is considered and I am not giving auditions from one platform special treatment over the other. All auditions will be listened to very carefully. I have also made a general discord server for those who have auditioned for/interested in this project! I'm a bit of a discord newbie, so I'm sorry if it's a mess haha. Here it is if anyone is interested! https://discord.gg/HeWTdJx Please keep auditioning! I'm loving all of the submissions so far. Much love~
  • Celestia Ludenburg, Mondo Oowada and Chihiro Fujisaki auditions are now open!

    More auditions will open up either tomorrow (22/06) or the next day (23/06), including auditions for Super Danganronpa 2: The Musical. I am absolutely blown away by the amount of talent! Thank you so much to those who have auditioned so far; I can tell already that I will have some very tough decisions to make. Please please please spread the word if you can; I would love to hear more voices! Feedback on auditions might be slow, but it will be given! I will carefully consider each and every audition I receive, so there is no need to worry about that. Once again, thank you so much!

Role assigned to: harena

The Ultimate Lucky Student and the protagonist of the musical! Although he appears to be completely average in every aspect, his optimistic attitude truly earns him the title of the Ultimate Hope.


Looking for someone (preferably a guy) with a tenor vocal range, with a good belting ability. A VERY strong voice actor and singer.

Looking for someone who sounds as close to the official English dub as possible! A cheerful, medium-pitched voice sounds best. Think: generic, optimistic protagonist!

  • #1 Before we go any farther, I guess I should introduce myself. My name's Makoto Naegi. As you can see, I'm nothing but a hopelessly average high school student. Average on the inside, average on the outside.

  • #2I refuse to give up! I refuse to get bored! I refuse to throw it all away! I refuse to despair! Because all I have going for me is the desire to keep moving forward!

  • Sing a musical theatre song that you believe would suit this character. Some examples include: "Corner of the Sky" from Pippin or "Empty Chairs at Empty Tables" from Les Miserables.

Which is why I've decided to tell you what I have. I want you to understand WHY I can't tell you. I can't show you myself, just like I can't show you what's underneath these gloves. I can't imagine a point where I would show them over again."
