Don't Throw Away Your Shot: HAMILTON to Hold Open Call in London!

According to The Stage, the producers of Hamilton will be holding an open call in London to cast the roles for the musical's upcoming West End production. Singers who rap and dancers of all ethnicities in their 20s-30s are encouraged to attend, although at this time the producers are not auditioning actors to play the role of King George III.

Hamilton is slated to begin performances at the Victoria Palace Theatre next fall, with rehearsals beginning in August, and tickets going on sale next month. Auditions will be held November 7th, and in order to attend, performers most have a UK/EU Passport and a one-year working visa that will be valid during the rehearsal/performance dates.

From the creative team behind the Tony Award-winning In The Heights comes a wildly inventive new musical about the scrappy young immigrant who forever changed America: Alexander Hamilton. Tony and Grammy Award winner Lin-Manuel Miranda wields his pen and takes the stage as the unlikely founding father determined to make his mark on a new nation as hungry and ambitious as he is. From bastard orphan to Washington's right hand man, rebel to war hero, loving husband caught in the country's first sex scandal to Treasury head who made an untrusting world believe in the American economy, Hamilton is an exploration of a political mastermind. George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, Eliza Hamilton, and lifelong Hamilton friend and foe, Aaron Burr, all attend this revolutionary tale of America's fiery past told through the sounds of the ever-changing nation we've become. Tony Award nominee Thomas Kail directs this new musical about taking your shot, speaking your mind, and turning the world upside down.
