No, your eyes weren't playing tricks on you — The Umbrella Academy [1] star Emmy Raver-Lampman really was a part of the ensemble in Disney+'s Hamilton [2]. Raver-Lampman actually pursued musical theatre during college and was a part of the original Broadway cast of Hamilton as a member of the ensemble while simultaneously understudying Angelica Schuyler, Peggy Schuyler/Maria Reynolds, and Eliza Hamilton. She's also been in productions of Wicked as Elphaba and Aida as Aida, as well as the ensembles of Hair, Jekyll & Hyde, and A Night with Janis Joplin. As you can see, her singing résumé is stacked with some pretty powerful roles.
If you're not a theatre fan, Raver-Lampman's singing ability may come as a shock, given that you've likely only seen her as as Lily Lofton on Jane the Virgin, Rebecca on A Million Little Things, or Allison Hargreeves/The Rumour on Netflix's The Umbrella Academy [3], which marks her first major television role. While it may be somewhat difficult for Raver-Lampman to sing in season two of the show [4] due to her character's unfortunate encounter with her sister in season one, you can at least check out the videos ahead and imagine what could've been.
