Hamilton - An Online Musical
spreeeest for Minor Roles
Lee: Charles Lee is a general who fought for the colonists and was given a command by George Washington, instead of Hamilton. His command is taken away at the Battle of Monmouth for his incompetent leadership. He blames Washington for the losses of the colonists, leading to Laurens challenging him to a duel where Lee is injured.
Seabury: Samuel Seabury is a bishop and loyalist who takes to the streets and vocally urges people to support the king and Great Britain. He is met with substantial backlash, and challenged by Hamilton to support his beliefs.
Eacker: George Eacker is a New York lawyer who makes a speech disparaging Alexander Hamilton. He agrees to a duel with Philip Hamilton over the same remarks. In the duel, which takes place at Weehawken, New Jersey, Eacker dishonorably shoots and kills Philip, who was aiming his pistol at the sky, a sign meant to show the shooter's intent to throw away their shot.
Doctor: Present at Phillip Hamilton's death. He explains to Alexander what has happened to his son.

Sing this section of "Farmer Refuted":
"Hear ye, hear ye! My name is Samuel Seabury
And I present “Free Thoughts on the
Proceedings of the Continental Congress!”
Heed not the rabble who scream revolution
They have not your interests at heart
Chaos and bloodshed are not a solution
Don’t let them lead you astray
This Congress does not speak for me
They’re playing a dangerous game
I pray the king shows you his mercy
For shame, for shame…"Do some type of talking monologue (this can be anything)!
