Frozen Princess Anna

Loving underrated stuff (Anna from Frozen, Song Joong Ki, Arthdal Chronicles, Old K Dramas)

The 2007 Broadway cast was the first and possibly only cast outside of the Philippines to feature three Filipino or part-Filipino performers in lead roles.

Lea Salonga (Fantine, shown here in her Act II barricade boy costume), Adam Jacobs (Marius) and Ali Ewoldt (Cosette).

honestly katie hall is such a good cosette because she plays her as more than just the sterotype.

she adds a real EDGE to her, an anger and passion, but balances with the perfect level of dreamfulness and almost niavity.

cosette is layered character and katie understands her

I like to play this game I call “Love Never Dies as the sequel to other things”, which is pretty much exactly what it sounds like. Because you could swap out The Phantom/Christine/Raoul/Meg for almost anybody else and the character motivations would make just as much sense.

For example:

Les Mis: In 1832, Eponine faked her death at the barricade and subsequently fled to Coney Island and opened an amusement park. Ten years later, in 1907, Marius and Cosette come to Coney Island. Eponine has a son who is just Ten Years Old. Cosette is now an abusive alcoholic. Seven and a half minutes of awkward exposition informs us that Marius and Eponine totally banged the night before his wedding to Cosette. In the end, Marius is shot and killed by a jealous (and also not dead) Enjolras, who has fallen in love with Eponine.

Frozen: In 1845, after failing to acquire a crown of his own, Hans moved to Coney Island and opened an amusement park. Ten years later, in 1907, Anna and Kristoff come to Coney Island. They have a son, who is just Ten Years Old. Kristoff is now an abusive alcoholic. Seven and a half minutes of awkward exposition informs us that Anna and Hans totally banged the night before her wedding to Kristoff. In the end, Anna is shot and killed by a jealous Elsa, who has fallen in love with Hans.

The Odyssey: In the 12th century BC, Penelope’s suitor Antinous was secretly saved from death by some minor deity who owed him a favor and brought him to what would one day be known as Coney Island, where he opened an amusement park. Ten years later, in 1907 AD, Odysseus and Penelope come to Coney Island. They have a second son, who is just Ten Years Old. Seven and a half minutes of awkward exposition in dactylic hexameter informs us that Penelope and Antinous totally banged the night before Odysseus’s return. In the end, Penelope is shot and killed by a jealous Euryclea, who has fallen in love with Antinous.

Gotham: In 2015, Barbara Kean leaves Gotham City, moves to Coney Island, and opens an amusement park. Ten years later, in 1907, Jim Gordon and Leslie Thompkins come to Coney Island. Barbara has a daughter, whom she has named after herself, and who is just Ten Years Old. Leslie Thompkins is now an abusive alcoholic. Seven and a half minutes of awkward exposition informs us that Jim and Barbara totally banged the night before she left. In the end, Jim is shot and killed by a jealous Oswald Cobblepot, who has fallen in love with Barbara.

i don’t think samantha barks was a good éponine. sure, she had a hell of a voice, but her acting was very weak and her éponine didn’t mean anything to me, especially in the plumet attack, where she just flits around — unlike nancy sullivan, who was terrifying there and brilliant altogether. it hurts when fans think of her as the ultimate éponine just because she played the role at the o2.

This is ridiculous. It was a CONCERT. Samantha is an AMAZING actress…unless you’ve seen her at the Queens, you don’t have any right to judge! Why do you think they chose Sam instead of Nancy? 

[annaandelsafrozengirls]

Being chosen at the O2 or even the movie doesn’t mean you’re the best for the role. Would you say Nick Jonas is the best Marius because he was chosen for the O2? Would you say Russell Crowe is the best Javert because he was chosen for the movie?? NO!

Same goes for Sam. I like her and her voice, but while she remains an Eponine I like, her acting and portrayal is not as strong as Nancy Sullivan. Plus Sam’s voice feels too much of an Elphaba/Elsa for it to feel like an Éponine voice.

I really don't think I'll ever be able to forgive them for robbing the West End of the sheer theatrical epicness of The Drape.

Five years later and I'm still devastated every time the music swells and all we get is a piddly cart.
