#music for shops

[whoareyoueventhough]

Shoutout to my tragic theatre kids. My girls born to play Elle Woods who have dark hair. My people destined to be Misha Bachinski who are 5'2". My people who should be analyzing newsies choreo who have face blindness. My Cats fanatics with no flexibility. My girls made to be a Veronica but are forced to be a Martha. Female Audrey II s. Male Janet Weiss's. The wrong range for the right role. You are meant for this character but they weren't designed for you and there's nothing you can do

*by live theatre i mean plays, musicals, operas, ballets, concert versions of musicals, staged readings, & things of that nature. EDIT: YES this includes amateur, local, kids, high school, & community theatre. almost every show i've seen has been local

if you want, list the names of the shows you've seen in the tags!

Little Shop of Horrors (1986) dir. Frank Oz

Musicals are time loops. Every night, the same thing happens except for a few minor differences. It always ends the same. If you want the characters to do something different or to make better choices, too bad. The actors are bound by the script and the score. The only way for the time loop to end is for the show to close. But you (the audience) don't want the show to close, nor do the actors who would like to be employed. It's a lose/lose situation. For the actors, audience, technicians, and for the characters, who are forever stuck in the same stretch of time.

imagine jade with a drumset - girl who has never had to worry about keeping the volume of her bass down (and in fact has it blasted so that it could be heard across the whole island) gets access to instrument that blasts your ears out. itd be like the vast glob 2

Now that there's an insanely-accurate recreation of the Wii Shop Channel music (thanks to DonnieTheGuy) I've taken it upon myself to whip up a version where the melody is Update Day from Nirvana the Band the Show
