happy 273th birthday to my favourite woman ever eleonore schikaneder 🎉🎉

Okay I realized I was so consumed with making sure anon knew

Mark Seibert wird das Phantom spielen

That I never answered the other part of the question. So here is my Vienna revival cast speculation/hopes

To be honest, I have not really kept up with German language musical theatre these past few years, at least not like I used to, so there's probably some obvious candidates I'm missing. So this is my list that is heavily skewed towards people who have been in Schikaneder or in Phantom before (in different roles or as understudies). Also some of these people are probably booked with other projects.

Christine: I've said for a while I thought Milica Jovanović would be a great choice. Not sure it will happen this time around though. But I'm fairly certain that Lillian Maandag will get a shot at the role in some capacity. Just a gut feeling especially because I anticipate a lot of the Rebecca cast auditioning and being cast in Phantom at the same theatre. Would be cool to see her sisters Annemarijn (who played the role in Oberhausen) or Willemijn Maandag getting a chance too. And I know Mercedesz Csampai is very busy with lots of projects but I still want her to return to the role of Christine.

Phantom: As we've established, Mark Seibert will play the Phantom. But I'm pretty sure there will be an alternate/standby/double casting situation. I think Thomas Borchert would like to return to the role based on social media. It's probably going to be someone who played Krolock tbh. I think I would like Robert David Marx to be an understudy Phantom because he took some cool photos of the Dance of the Vampires cast and I listened to his voice and liked it. Other names that frequently get thrown around like Jan Amman could be cool. I would not be shocked if Lucius Wolter is a Phantom cover, he was a Raoul understudy in Essen (appearing in the infamous Uwe Kröger video).

Raoul: I liked Florian Peters in Schikaneder and Mozart, plus he's engaged to Lillian, so it would be cute to see them together. I also like James Park as an option based on what I've heard and his past roles. I wonder if we'll see Oedo Kuipers return as principal Raoul. And I hope Toby Joch is in the cast, he was legendary on social media and I liked him as Raoul on audio.

Carlotta: I am a big fan of former Christines returning as Carlotta, so maybe Colleen Besett? I also am thinking of Katja Reichert. Karin Seyfried played Meg in the original Vienna production and has since played more legit musical theatre singing roles like Jellyorum in Cats, it would be cool to see her as Carlotta or Giry.

Managers: Thorsten Tinney, Hardy Rudolz, Martin Pasching, Armin Kahl?

Madame Giry: I really really want Eva Maria Bender to return to the show. Ana Milva Gomes or Silke Braas-Wolter or Shari Lynn Stewen or Maya Hakvoort if she decides to break away from Elisabeth concerts.

Meg Giry: Myrthes Monteiro! She was a ballerina in the original Brazilian production and is now based in Germany.

Piangi: Reinwald Kranner? Raymond Sepe returning? Chris Georgetti surprise return? That one is wishful thinking, I think VBW is less likely to cast random Americans that Stage Entertainment and also as much as I'd love to see some Broadway cast members in the show again, I think it's pretty unlikely we see that happen.

no context only schikaneder in mind

Anyone know how I can get my hands on a script or entire English lyric translation for the entire Schikaneder Das Musical ? I am in love with all of the songs but I have no idea what they’re saying, and I’d like to read along as I listen. 🥺

In my room a Schikaneder accent was urgently needed, so.

very, very sexy to use the opening number of a musical to structure the entire show as a flashback

requests open for musical chords!

So this might seem kind of random, but in my free time I've been working out and writing up chords for various musicals that I love. Elisabeth, Mozart and TDV already had a couple chords up on ultimate-guitar written by other people, but I sort of really want to get up the chords for every single song from those musicals.

However, that’s a lot, a lot, of chords and it’s hard to know where to start some days so while I’m going to get to them all eventually, if there’s someone who wants a particular song done first I’ll gladly get to that one before the others!

Musicals I’m taking requests for:

Elisabeth Das Musical

Mozart Das Musical

Tanz Der Vampire

Rebecca Das Musical

3 Musketiers / 3 Musketiere

Мастер и Маргарита / The Master and Margarita

Roméo & Juliette / Roméo & Juliet / Rómeó és Júlia / Romeo und Julia*

Rudolf: The Last Kiss / Rudolf: Affaire Mayerling*

Schikaneder

Artus Excalibur*

35MM: A Musical Exhibition

Lestat*

The Scarlet Pimpernel*

Dracula*

Jekyll and Hyde*

The Count of Monte Cristo*

Wicked

(*Will take a little longer to get to because I haven’t listened to these musicals all the way through get so don’t know the songs that well yet)

This also includes various versions of a song. For example, Zeit in einer Flasche from Rebecca is longer in the Vienna version than the Stuttgart one and I’d be willing to make chords for both versions.

I’ll only not make the chords for a song if someone else already has and uploaded them on ultimate-guitar.

You can click here to see the list of chords I’ve already done. Tumblr won’t let the post show up in tags and I can only imagine it’s once again because of linking to another website (it’s so stupid that you get soft blocked for that) so www.ultimate-guitar.com/contribution/39230186-emptymasks/tabs I guess you’ll have to copy and paste that.

Also, I’m going to ask for a cheeky favour, if you have a free minute I’d really appreciate if you could rate/review my chords. If you scroll to the bottom of each page there’s a row of five stars you can click on. That’s all you have to do, it’s real easy. There’s levels and perks within ultimate-guitar and I can only move up if my chords get rated but 90% of people don’t leave a rating and not that many people are going to be looking for these chords in comparison to the insane amount of people looking at Perfect by Ed Sheearn everyday

Somehow I didn’t realise this before, but Schikaneder premiered exactly 225 years after Die Zauberflöte.
