HAMILTON -GENDERBEND musical project-
maiko sakuai for Joan Laurens/Ophelia Hamilton (John Laurens/Phillip Hamilton)
And here is the sweetheart that broke our hearts... twice. So, for Joan/Ophellia, I want the voice to be either soprano or alto and I want it to sound warm, kinda playful, and just... the sound of someone enjoying life, ironically.
(Airen Burr, Ma'am -Aaron Burr, Sir-)
Show time! Show time! Yo!
I’m Joan 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!
Cuz I will pop chick-a pop these cops till I’m free!(Story of Tonight)
Raise a glass to freedom
Something they can never take away
No matter what they tell youRaise a glass to the four of us
Tomorrow there'll be more of us...
Telling the story of tonight
(Sing only YOUR part please)
(Blow Us All Away)

Mom, if you had only heard the shit she said about you
I doubt you would have let it slide and I was not about to—
[Alexandra]
Slow down
[Ophellia]
I came to ask you for advice. This is my very first duel
They don’t exactly cover this subject in boarding school
I doubt you would have let it slide and I was not about to—
[Alexandra]
Did your friends attempt to negotiate a peace?
[Ophellia]
He refused to apologize, we had to let the peace talks cease
[Alexandra]
Where is this happening?
[Ophellia]
Across the river, in Jersey[Alexandra/Ophellia]
Everything is legal in New Jersey…
