Super Paper Mario The Musical

Super Paper Mario The Musical

Project Overview

Welcome to the newest project for Game Rec Room on Youtube, Super Paper Mario The Musical! (SPMTM)

This project will be a compilation of lyric videos set to the music of Super Paper Mario, stitched together into one overarching storyline/musical. It will include Artists, Mixers, Editors, and Voice Actors all coming together to put this project on its feet. Please feel free to audition for as many roles as you want, the more of your voice we get to see, the better. Versatile cast members are especially appreciated.

If you are familiar with channels such as Man On The Internet's "Undertale The Musical" or any similar projects, you will understand the general outline of this project as well. A few rules to go over before auditioning:

  1. Be at least 14+ to audition

  1. Be open to working on Discord, that is where the majority of communication will occur

  2. Please do your best to submit with the best quality you can in your auditions as well as keeping vocal effects to a minimum. We want to hear YOUR voice most importantly, not an edited product.

  3. This is a very large-scale project and will require positive and consistent communication through all aspects and people. If you are unavailable for stretches of time, please communicate that in a way that will not interfere with the process.

  4. Every role, unless otherwise specified, requires a singing audition as well as the spoken section. Please sing something you feel would fit for the character as stated in the descriptions

  5. Please include your discord in your audition description due to Rule #2

  • Final Cast List/Closing Casting Call

    Good afternoon everybody!

    This will be the final announcement for this project! The casting for this project has been nothing short of near-impossible for me to put together, but I appreciate everyone who submitted an audition. It was truly a pleasure to listen to you all, especially with over 400+ auditions! I wish there were enough roles for all of you, but as it stands there are only so many roles to cast. With that being said:


    The cast list has been created and everybody who has been cast has received a message on discord. If you did not receive a message, then unfortunately this means you did not get cast in the project. I encourage all of you to keep your eyes open for future projects that come out of this channel, and to enjoy viewing Super Paper Mario the Musical as it gets released on our channel, Game Rec Room!

    Once again, we appreciate everyone who submitted something, and your assistance on making this process the best it can be.

    Hope you have a wonderful day!

    -Game Rec Room

    With only 3 days left until the deadline closes, we wanted to give a quick update to everyone about the next steps of the project.

    A New Role has been added, the Narrator! This role is purely spoken, not sung open to everybody who wants to. If you also auditioned for a singing role, feel free to audition for this one as well

    Callbacks will begin for major characters! NOTE: General Auditions are still open! We have just begun reaching out regarding callbacks. This is not our finalized list! We will begin reaching out to people over Discord to begin the process of deciding between the finalists for specific roles.

    If you are not immediately reached out to, understand that we may be considering you for a specific character that would not require an audition, or have wanted to bring you in as "Chorus/Assorted Voices". We will try to reach out to everyone by the end of the week, or by April 15th.

Dimentio

Dimentio is the pleaser of crowds, master of dimensions, and backstabbing, self serving mastermind. His voice should have a very playful touch and bounciness to it. With a certain, Je ne sais quoi.

He uses French and Italian phrases throughout his songs so feel free to attempt a slight accent should you feel it works for your Dimentio.

Role assigned to: boog

Mimi is an effervescent girl who presents herself as sweet and innocent, but she is not at all what she seems. Her voice remains the same between her forms, but with slightly different intonations; as her regular self, she should be light and bubbly, and as her TRUE self, she should be more sharp, grating, and menacing. She should be more on the high-pitched side.

The narrator should be a well-spoken male or female voice. Not as grandiose as a storybook narrator, but still as wise. Try to find a balance between the playful/hopeful and grand adventure tone in his lines. A double cast of this role and a singer for this project is always very helpful.


No singing is required for this role

  • This prophetic book was a mysterious tome full of stories of future events. Of course, many people craved this book, wishing to glimpse their futures. But no person, after obtaining this amazing book, ever found happiness.

  • Count Bleck's servant Mimi had laid a nasty trap for Mario and friends... But with the help of Merlee, faithful defender of the Pure Heart, the day was won.
