Not only does Daniel Craig look indescribably adorable in this play, but his co-star Jason Isaacs describes it as “shagging each other senseless for seven hours a day”, and says they used to tug each other’s balls to try and make each other laugh in the middle of a line…

⚠️HAMILTON THEORY⚠️

So, so, SO

Y'all know and love the musical Hamilton, right? Well I do. And idk if this theory is *entirely* original, so my apologies if it isn't. BUT:

Angelica and Elizabeth Schuyler, both have iconic songs which highlight their feelings for our controversial bastard orphan Alexander. Eliza uses the phrase "Helpless" throughout the song frequently (it's also the name lol), and Angelica uses "Satisfied" (ALSO the name of the song).

BUT, stay with me, the two eldest Schuyler sisters aren't the only ones who uses these phrases.

In Say No to This, Maria Reynolds says "I'm helpless", almost like a nod to Eliza's song.

Whereas in Meet me Inside, John Laurens says "I'm satisfied" after his duel with Charles Lee. Now, while this may be a coincidence, as it's fitting that it rhymes with "shot him in the side" (referring to Lee's current condition), it's still something to consider.

My thought is this:

The characters in Hamilton that quote or say the word 'Helpless' in their respective songs, are those who openly showed affection and expressed their love to Alexander Hamilton. Those being Eliza Hamilton, his wife, and Maria Reynolds, the one whom he had a "torrid affair" with, as that became public later on.

But, the characters who had used the term 'Satisfied' were the ones who never broadcasted their love, only really admired him from afar or never spoke about their relationship. And who were those, you may ask? None other than John Laurens, Hamilton's close friend who many shippers are speculating an affair between the two, as well as Angelica Schuyler, who talked about her repressed feelings in her spotlight song.

Reblog if you love Hamilton ;)

I have previously discussed the fact that the TOS crew are all musical theatre kids, meanwhile TNG are all traditional/spoken theatre kids-- but I've finally figured out what's up with the DS9 and ENT crews.

Enterprise crew are all improv/ComedySportz kids.

The DS9 crew are all techies.

I've cracked the code.

Apparently Daniel Craig is trying to get funding to make a movie of that version of Othello he did on stage in 2016 and it just made me think about those cute rehearsal pics where i always think he looks like he’s at school idk why (probably the little notepads and sitting on benches listening to someone talk)

I woke up this morning bc my feet were cold and I also had Epic the Musical stuck in my head so these are the lyrics my brain came up with:

My feet are cold

My foe is blind

The socks I lost

I'll never find

Is this what it means to be

the warrior of the mind?
