HAPPY SUMMERTIME SPRINGLE BING aka second anniversary of The Watermill Theatre's The Lord of the Rings: A Musical Tale! I can't believe it's been TWO WHOLE YEARS since this show opened!! I miss this cast so much, not least of all Louis Maskell as Frodo and Nuwan Hugh Perera as Sam. The hobbit duo of all time. 💖

I couldn't really focus my energy on the bingo board, because I had to finish my works for the LotR Musical art show I have coming up, but I hope these lads are anniversary celebration worthy regardless! This painting was a BEAST, and I'm still not 100% happy with it, but the deadline for this anniversary celebration nicely coincided with my art show deadline, so I am making peace with it for now. This is the biggest piece I've done, along with Galadriel, and I'm very proud of myself for finishing it, so huzzah!

Once again, HAPPY ANNIVERSARY to the Watermill production and the entire fandom! What a fabulous two years it's been! ❤️

Your kiss of life has opened my eyes The place where my heart breaks you have mended Your gift of love has given me life My sorrow and heartache you have melted I love you I love you

You can't see the face here, but I would recognize those wobbly legs anywhere.

A video of this performance, lasting about an hour, is available on YouTube.

HELLO lotrm watermill Louis frodo fan reporting for duty

Wriggliest frodo to ever wriggle. So bloody tall. Exceptionally haunted but also very silly when he's with his friends. Wild amounts of homoeroticism with aragorn. Seems to very much ship Samfrosie, like the choices they made God damn. I have a photo of Louis with his arms around both Nuwan and Charlotte when they're talking about Sam and Rosie's wedding. Terrifying when ring possessed - idk if you've seen the musical, but when he gives in before Shelob, his voice has been steadily getting so sad and raspy and weak, and then when he claims the ring his voice is SCARILY normal. Crying all the time. He starts crying in lothlorien on some nights. It's a lot.

His accent is delightful. We (lotrm discord server, please join) have nicknamed it the baggcent.

Ummmm wow I have so many Louis thoughts I could go on forever but I'm gonna send this now

This is incredibly helpful omfg thank you!! I was especially curious about how he went with the descent into ring sickness, as I felt it happened very abruptly with the Frodo I saw last night - and I know from Louis' Grinpayne how WELL that man can do suffering. Devastating to know that he's a crier, I wish I could have seen him in the role for that reason alone 😭

And you're more than welcome to keep going on omg my chat DMs are very much open to your Louis feelings - or I can join the discord server if that's easier!!
