Megan Thee Stallion is Zidler in Moulin Rouge! The Musical
"sometimes i'll read a gershwin biography, and i'll have pain, like actual pangs, i should say, that they'll be at a salon in a brownstone singing songs in the biography, and i'll feel like i should be there. how do i get there? what can i do? and it'll hurt." GOD idk if i've never heard anyone else describe this but this is how i feel all the time these days. just like genuine pain. except obviously i'm not kelli o'hara who is, in fact, There. or as close as it is humanly possible to be.
anyways i really appreciate how much of this 45min retrospective she spends talking about feeling out of place as a singer and how she spent ages banging her head against a wall trying to sing like everyone else, because she's NOT a belter but everyone only wanted belters and was only writing for belters. and she's just like. "i can't sing like that. i came up watching sopranos like marin and audra and thought okay i can be like them, but then by the time i got to new york there were no roles like that anymore."
sorry to make this about megan again but reminds me of how meg has also said a similar thing about her early career where she was much more of a classical soprano when she started and didn't know how to belt but when she was trying to book jobs they simply were not Doing That anymore (but then in megan's case of course she just… taught herself to belt and it worked). anyways thank GOD kelli found her place and did NOT go that route bc then truly who else would lead every rogers & hammerstein revival ever
this lost boys broadway still is giving hadestown at the lesbian burlesque
baby butch orpheus. high camp drag king hades. do you see it. do you see my vision.
one drop (don't stop)
it's just you and me
Toxic Yaoi I just made up: Leo Bloom from the Producers was on the cruise that Frank Shepard took midway through Merrily. They shared a passionate, drunk night together, but then pretended not to remember in the morning. You see, their careers are too close. It's just businesses, not personal
it’s march 1st, and it’s cheese
thinking about death becomes her and hadestown and viola as hades and faustian bargains for everlasting life sold to you wrapped in the promise of "Freedom"
thinking about chagall and the fates, the immortals and the workers, the descent into the underworld in live to serve and way down hadestown reprise……… thinking about "live to serve" ("the grand immortal mother, who we serve") as servitude. as labor.
and also kind of separately from this specific parallel framing, thinking about these two images just purely visually
three fates three sirens three witches in macbeth etc etc :)
this one is just jokes for fun but i mean. lol.

i love that the past years of beggars at the feast line changes have created a narrative starting with 'thenardier is homophobic' to 'thenardier has given it some thought, realised some things about himself and is now bicurious' to the current 'thenardier has finally given gay sex a go'. and the thing is that literally nobody asked for this to happen
speaking of things that literally nobody asked for... i do think the best way to experience this journey is to hear it for yourself. so, presenting, the evolution of bisexual icon thenardier:
1. the classic
as a reminder, here is the line as it originally stood. this is from the live recording of the all-star staged concert, where it was still in place:
transcript: here comes a prince / there goes a jew / this one's a queer / but what can you do?
2. the quiche
enter the staged concert of 2021. there had clearly been a behind-the-scenes conversation that went along the lines of 'this line is problematic, we must update it for a modern audience'. and this was the baffling result:
transcript: here comes a prince / he's nouveau riche / this one looks queer / i bet he likes quiche
3. the bicuriosity
quiche made it over to the west end revival and stuck around for a couple of years, but by mid 2023, thenardier had done some personal reflection:
transcript: here comes a prince / there goes a jew / this one looks queer / i might try that too
4. the bicuriosity: part 2
by early 2024, thenardier is actively seeking new experiences:
transcript: here comes a prince / there goes a lord / i'll keep him in mind / in case i get bored
5. diversity win!
which leads us to the current line in which we have a thenardier who is out and proud
transcript: here comes a prince / mais entre nous / this one's a queer / and i've tried that too
anyway, i can't wait to see where this story takes us next! i'm holding out hope for turnchetta finally going canon
She doesn't give a twig about what anyone else thinks. Of course she does. She just pretends not to. I feel awful.
'old friend' is about the homosexualest thing you can call somebody. you might as well be fingering them

next to normal is about being a boymom. sweeney todd is about being a girldad.
in one, someone you think is alive is dead. in the other, someone you think is dead is alive. razors are involved in both.
