well the medallion says that's dumb

I have a lot of opinions on theatre. Some of them are valid. I lose my governmental allowance if I don’t gush about Dave Malloy three times a month.

does everyone here know that i made an insane gay puppet opera about the sun and moon on a budget of $25 in college? with like 8 foot tall puppets made visibly out of PVC pipe and rope?

[queercafe]

for @laomelettedufromage and anyone else interested

i had never made a video project before and there are definitely parts i would do very differently now!!!!

Just got back from an incredibly moving symphony and a bunch of posh people in the bathroom during intermission were saying how much they hated it because it made them feel guilty and upset (the composition is specifically about environmentalism and anthropogenic mass extinction) and I just want to say.....

Art isn't supposed to always make you feel happy.

It's supposed to make you feel.

Good art makes you feel, whether it's joy or guilt or sadness or anger or fear. If you're not prepared for art to give you complicated feelings, you don't actually care about art, you just want to be entertained.

Since I made the post about how it was gonna end soon that happened to get widely shared I thought I’d give it a send off post as well.

Lin-Manuel Miranda is not untalented but he shouldn't be making billion dollar disney movies or whatever. This guy should be in a garage making deeply earnest but unpolished rap opera concept albums and posting them online for a niche fanbase of no more than 100,000 too-online theatre nerds. Hiring him to make forgettable paint-by-numbers radio friendly disney princess pop is trying to raise devil's pupfish in captivity. You have to stop giving him money and let him go make cringe in his natural habitat or you're never going to get anything good.

I know no one cares anymore but great comet still makes me feel insane. the play is NAMED AFTER Pierre and Natasha and they only have one scene together. ONE! the only time they’re in a room together is during the penultimate number. they share ONE, prolonged, gentle point of physical contact in the entire 2.5 hour show. she leaves the room smiling!! can anyone hear me? she leaves the room SMILING

[coyote-daniels]

A look through the Great Comet zine I made!! ☄️✨🍷

“come, let us march against the powers of heaven, and set black streamers in the firmament to signify the slaughter of the gods” is such a raw line you’d think it’s from Shakespeare, but it’s actually from the slightly earlier Elizabethan dramatist Christopher Marlowe
