Cabaret is relevant and trending again.
Annie Leibovitz: Alan Cumming backstage at the Kit Kat Club, New York City, 1998
One of the biggest differences between the 1998/2014 runs of Cabaret and the most recent run is the ending. Alan Cumming’s Emcee, for his final act, does a strip tease. He winks lasciviously and toys with his buttons. The audience laughs. Then, when he finally drops his coat, he reveals he is wearing a concentration camp uniform. If you don’t know it’s coming, it’s utterly shocking. This was not how the original Broadway run ended. Community theaters and smaller productions basically all adopted this way of doing things, putting their own little spins on it but fundamentally not changing anything.
In the most recent Cabaret revival, the Emcee is much more sinister. About halfway through the play, he is no longer wearing makeup. He wears a brown suit reminiscent of a Nazi uniform. His hair is shockingly blond. But I think this interpretation is not just about the transformation of the soul of Germany as it bent towards fascism — I think it is also a tragic ending. This vibrant, queer character goes back into the closet to try to survive. It’s not death, like it was for Cummings’ emcee.
But I think about the slogan I hear from some friends — “death before detransition.” Re-closeting is its own kind of death. This Emcee lives at the end, but does he really? What does it cost him?
hey sorry i acted weird the other day i was trying so hard to act normal that it backfired
This whole fucking post is a rollercoaster
You know how it is with Skyrim
this shit just got so real i feel faint
Another really big day out here for former 16 y/o emo girls who are now adult men paying taxes
“we fell hard and fast in 2009 and now here we are 16 years later” GIRL WHATEVERRRRR
so bECAUSE OF THE HARDLAUNCH I WENT OUTSIDE AND STARTED SCREAMING AT 12AM SO NATURALLY SOMEONE THOUGHT I WAS BEING MURDERED AND CALLED THE POLICE AND WHEN THEY GOT HERE I HAD TO GIVE THEM MY EXPLANATION FOR SCREAMING AT 12AM SO I JUST SAID DAN AND PHIL AND ONE OF THE COPS EYES SUDDENLY GOT REALLY BIG AND THEN HE SAID “THEY HARDLAUNCHED?” AND THEN HE WATCHED THE VIDEO ON HIS PHONE I HAVE A GROWN POLICE MAN SITTING IN MY DRIVEWAY CRYING AND CURSING AT DAN AND PHIL UNDER HIS BREATH HIS PARTER GAVE HIM A SHOCK BLANKET OH MY GOD
Can I just say, I am so proud of them
Dan has struggled with his sexuality and identity for so long. Worried of what people will think and what people will do. To the point of pretending to be straight while actively in a relationship with a man
Phil, a man who hasn’t really struggled with that, going back into the closet for almost a decade, for the man he loves so much. And doing so without (public) complaint and with a smile on his face
Both dealing with their own medical, emotional, and mental issues. Dealing with fans who won’t respect boundaries and leave them alone. Who try to pry into everything little thing they do. Dealing with life as a whole
Both somehow coming out the other end better and nicer people. Forgiving each other and their fans at the same time. Being able to move to the future with joy and happiness and peace
I cannot even imagine what their relationship has gone through. The stress it put on them
I am just so happy they are both able to be their authentic selves now
I hope the future holds nothing but prosperity for them
They deserve it
I'm so proud of Dan for trusting Phil enough to stay. I'm so proud of Phil for understanding Dan enough to stay.
Next time someone asks you if Dan and Phil are dating you can just respond with “yes they’ve been together since 2009” instead of sending an essay back to them
This has been a very normal day except that every 30 minutes I remember Dan and Phil confirmed their relationship and I get hit with psychic damage for 20 seconds before continuing to go about my day
on their clit like morse code
"S.O.S. we're going down"
fuck dont be funnier than me on my own post
No stop that

uhh?
In 1947, an British flight from Buenos Aires, Argentina to Santiago, Chile reported their status over Morse code as "ETA SANTIAGO 17.45 HRS STENDEC". That last word is nonsense, so the tower asked for clarification. They repeated: STENDEC. STENDEC.
They were never heard from again. 11 people vanished, apparently along with their plane, and the only clue is that last word.
And no one knows what the fuck "STENDEC" means.
She STEN on my DEC until I'm never heard from again.
