*RECAST FOR LAURENS AND SEABURY* Hamilton (Fan Cast Recording)

Project Overview


Hamilton (Fan Cast Recording)


INTRODUCTION

Hello, everyone! I'm N-Vision and I'm starting a casting call for Hamilton (Fan Cast Recording), a project for my YouTube channel that will consist of a group of Hamilfans re-recording the Hamilton soundtrack in full. Hamilton is my favorite musical and there's no better way for me to express my passion for it than to lead a group of Hamilfans, who are also very passionate about the musical, and make the best fan recording possible!

REQUIREMENTS:

  • Anyone chosen for a role MUST be able to record vocals for their selected roles. You should only audition if you are able to make this commitment.
  • Record your vocals with a decent microphone, with little to no background noise. Avoid recording vocals with any peaking or clipping. Your recordings should NOT sound distorted in any way.
  • The quality of your vocal performance is important. I will be picking the best singers for each role, based on their performance in the audition.
  • You need access to a computer/laptop as Audacity and Google Drive will be used to record the vocals and submit them, respectively. Discord is also required (mobile or computer/laptop, whatever your preference) as a means of communication between the cast members and myself.
  • HAVE FUN! You're a passionate Hamilfan auditioning for this big Hamilton-related project. Give me your all and enjoy the recording process! 😄

FINAL NOTES

I am very excited for this project, especially with the chance of interacting and collaborating with other talented singers, who are also Hamilfans! And not to worry, your hard work and passion won't go unnoticed. I'll be crediting each and every single one of you who works on the project in the video descriptions and the final project credits! I'll also include any social media, YouTube, and/or Twitch links you want me to promote in there too. If all goes well, this will be an amazing experience at the very least and a fantastic fan cast recording at best! I look forward to hearing all your auditions and working with the selected ones on this project!

Latest Updates

  • Recast for Laurens and Seabury

    Hey, everyone! It's N-Vision here, with an important update to make. I will be recasting the roles of John Laurens/Phillip Hamilton and Samuel Seabury/Male Ensemble #3, due to the currently selected actor being unavailable. I'm also looking for people to audition for the roles of Charles Lee/Male Ensemble #4 and George Eacker/Male Ensemble #5. If you're interested in one or more of these roles, I implore you to audition for as many as you'd like! You may land more than one role if you're lucky! Please share this with your friends, family and others who you think may be interested in this! The project is set to premiere later this year so I hope you're all looking forward to it!
  • So Many Great Auditions!

    It's only been about two days and I must say I'm very impressed by quite a few of the auditions that have been submitted thus far. I can especially see that there is some pretty good competition for the role of Eliza. You're all great singers but I can only pick one for each role....so I have a few details to share with you all. Understudies I can't possibly pick all of you for a single role but it would be a shame to not showcase all your talents. I've decided to cast understudies for all the main roles. Basically, those who win "first place" get selected for the role they auditioned for and those who are "second place" will be asked if they want to become an understudy for the role they auditioned for. As an example, you will be guaranteed a part in the ensemble, singing background vocals, should everything go perfectly but if the person playing Eliza needs to back out of the project, even for just a bit, you will take over the role. Whether that means doing the whole soundtrack as Eliza, or just a song or two because the main singer for her becomes available later on, your role as the understudy is very important and you will be a part of the project no matter if plans go perfectly or not. Audition for Multiple Roles There is a chance you might not get selected for a role you auditioned for, but don't fret! You might just get selected for another role, given that you auditioned for it as well! Ladies, this goes especially for you. You're all fantastic singers but you might benefit from auditioning for additional roles like Angelica, Peggy, or even just the female ensemble. I will select you for the role I think is best for your vocal abilities. Just keep an open mind to trying out for more than one role! I am so happy and excited that so many talented singers have already started submitting auditions and I can't to make the final decisions next month. Remember, if you know anyone else who might be interested in this, be sure to share this audition with them! The more Hamilfans auditioning, the merrier! Thanks again for all your auditions so far and I look forward to updating you again soon! 😄

Elizabeth Schuyler

Unpaid
Role assigned to: CathrynArcherVO

Elizabeth Schuyler, sister of Angelica and Peggy Schuyler, is a kind-hearted woman that was alive during America's beginnings. She marries Alexander Hamilton, an immigrant who would play a big role in the American Revolution. She worries for Hamilton's safety during the war and wishes he would stay at home and be with his family, instead of focusing on his legacy.

  • Helpless, look into your eyes and the sky's the limit

    I'm helpless, down for the count and I'm drownin' in 'em

  • I don't pretend to know
    The challenges you're facing
    The worlds you keep erasing and creating in your mind
    But I'm not afraid
    I know who I married
    So long as you come home at the end of the day
    That would be enough

  • You published the letters she wrote you
    You told the whole world how you brought this girl into our bed
    In clearing your name, you have ruined our lives
    Do you know what Angelica said
    When she read what you'd done?
    She said
    "You have married an Icarus
    He has flown too close to the sun"

    You and your words, obsessed with your legacy
    Your sentences border on senseless
    And you are paranoid in every paragraph
    How they perceive you

    You, you, you...

  • I'm John Laurens in the place to be!
    Two pints o' Sam Adams, but I'm workin' on three, uh!
    Those redcoats don't want it with me
    'Cause I will pop chick-a pop these cops till I'm free!

  • Raise a glass to freedom
    Something they can never take away
    No matter what they tell you

    Raise a glass to the four of us
    Tomorrow, there'll be more of us
    Telling the story of tonight

  • Meet the latest graduate of King's College
    I probably shouldn't brag, but dag, I amaze and astonish
    The scholars say I got the same virtuosity and brains as my Pop's
    The ladies say my brain's not where the resemblance stops

    I'm only nineteen, but my mind is older
    Gotta be my own man, like my father, but bolder
    I shoulder his legacy with pride
    I used to hear him say that someday I would

    Blow us all away!

  • Daddy said to be home by sundown

    Daddy said not to go downtown

    Look around, look around at how lucky we are to be alive right now!

    Look around, look around at how lucky we are to be alive right now!

    History is happenin' in Manhattan and we just happen to be in the greatest city in the world

    In the greatest city in the world!

  • I know you are a man of honor

    And I came here all alone

    My husband's doin' me wrong
    Beatin' me, cheatin' me, mistreatin' me

  • You say
    The price of my love's not a price that you're willing to pay
    You cry
    In your tea which you hurl in the sea when you see me go by
    Why so sad?
    Remember, we made an arrangement when you went away
    Now, you're making me mad
    Remember, despite our estrangement, I'm your man

  • You say our love is draining, and you can't go on
    You'll be the one complainin' when I am gone
    And no, don't change the subject
    'Cause you're my favorite subject
    My sweet, submissive subject
    My loyal, royal subject

  • John Adams?
    I know him
    That can't be
    That's that little guy who spoke to me
    All those years ago
    What was it, eighty-five?
    That poor man, they're gonna eat him alive!

    Oceans rise
    Empires fall
    Next to Washington, they all look small
    All alone
    Watch them run
    They will tear each other into pieces
    Jesus Christ, this will be fun!

    Da da da dat da dat da da da da-ya da

  • There would have been nothin' left to do for someone less astute

She is very outspoken for a woman at the time, expressing her ideals without fear. During a ball held in the winter of 1780, she meets, and gets romantic feelings for, a young revolutionary named Alexander Hamilton.

  • I've been reading Common Sense by Thomas Paine
    Some men say that I'm intense or I'm insane
    You want a revolution? I want a revelation
    So listen to my declaration
    "We hold these truths to be self-evident
    That all men are created equal"
    And when I meet Thomas Jefferson
    I'ma compel him to include women in the sequel!
    Work!

  • My dearest Alexander, you must get through to Jefferson
    Sit down with him and compromise
    Don't stop 'til you agree
    Your favourite older sister Angelica reminds you
    There's someone in your corner all the way across the seaIn a letter I received from you two weeks ago
    I noticed a comma in the middle of a phrase
    It changed the meaning, did you intend this?
    One stroke and you've consumed my waking days
    It says"My dearest, Angelica"
    With a comma after dearest
    You've written
    "My dearest, Angelica"

  • (sing it like the final chorus in Satisfied)

    To the groom
    To the bride
    From your sister
    Who is always by your side
    To your union
    And the hope that you provide
    May you always
    Be satisfiedAnd I know
    She'll be happy as his bride
    And I know
    He will never be satisfied
    I will never be satisfied
