literally screaming at everybody “pete and ted can’t ever interact with each other, they’re played by the same actor : (“ DO YOU FORGET WHO WE’RE DEALING WITH HERE??

there are the insane quick changes of which we have: joey richter himself playing what i can only assume to be the entire population of independence (plus an ox) in one song:

and then, of course, the master himself, brosenthal, playing frankly 80% of the cast, but ESPECIALLY in this one scene. ONE SCENE:

“oh but joey left the scene for some of the quick changes in tto, he can’t do that if the spankoffski bros are supposed are supposed to have a conversation” FINE, the other option: just play two characters at once. which starkid has done before.

exhibit one, twisted. these two are not the same:

exhibit two, tgwdlm, a hatchetfield show. this already happened in a hatchefield show:

(also, it is two different characters, do not fight me on this. this scene is too confrontation from jekyll & hyde-coded to be the same character) SPEAKING off confrontation:

joey did already. play two different characters at once. i’m not here to argue the semantics or implications about personhood of saying confrontation and let it go has two different characters each, i’m just saying, acting-wise, there’s two distinctive characters in both songs. like. guys. absolutely joey could just simply play both of them simultaneously. they literally do this all the time. what’s your excuse now

So Broadway's Aladdin contains a Jewish joke that is actually funny and not offensive and I'm a little surprised nobody laughed.

Jafar: You're the Chosen One! Aladdin: Actually, I think the Chosen People are a few hundred miles west.

Aww! They’re Genie and Beetlejuice

latest art drop for my friends at new amsterdam theatre. some wall hangings of Babkak, Omar, Kassim and Iago! i added beading on them as well that reflects their costumes and to add to that agrabah vibe.

i brought these a few weeks ago when i went for my birthday, so they have probably been hanging in the new am since which is very cool!

Forget the Disney Live Action Remakes. They should just record the Broadway Shows and make them available for purchase or on Disney Plus. Who’s with me?

Please help me out, Tumblr!

I've recently realized that the fandoms I'm in are too small for me to talk about with most people. I've been having HORRID anxiety where I can't even think about my fixations without feeling anxious and insecure. Of course, my audhd doesn't make this any easier either.

Pretty much the only requirements are kinda be around my age (I'm almost 18) and participate in engaging conversation with me (I freak out more if people just listen and don't respond. It makes me think they don't care)

Here are some current fandoms I'm in:

The Emperor's New Groove (the sequel, the show, and Kingdom of the Sun!)

The Hunchback of Notre Dame! (Mostly musical but I'm down to talk about the movie)

ALADDIN. (Literally everything in the franchise. Although, it'd be nice to talk to TV series/musical fans instead of the usual movie fans. I also know too much useless information about this franchise-)

The Great Mouse Detective! I eat this movie UP

I'm also starting to get back into James and the Giant Peach mwahahaha >:3

Sooooo, yeah! Interactions/asks are encouraged! I hope to make some new friends!!

I’ll never get tired of looking at this wall

"when will they make the emperor's new groove into a live action movie" my opinion on this is hopefully never but they should make it into a broadway musical. and disney should release professional recordings of all of their musicals. <3

my brother has decided to come with me to theatre box offices and ask for playbills. we got lucky and also got a couple autographs at stage doors.

i love Babkak and Omar's relationship so much. we don't get a ton of vocal interactions between them on stage, but physical interactions? they are always hanging out and they're very affectionate with each other.

this scene could be happening:

a) while Kassim is explaining his newest potential crime scheme

or b) during one of Al and Kassim's arguments
