I know the show kinda wants me to dislike Shakespeare taking over and making big changes behind Anne’s back, and like yeah that’s a dick move 100% don’t get me wrong.

…but…he did give us Frankie/May, one of the best act 1 finale’s I’ve ever seen, the himbo bicon legend himself Romeo Montague, and is the reason the DuBois family band gets back together and performs Everybody, so like…I can’t be that mad about his choices tbh.

what if i saw a jukebox musical about Juliet Capulet and then i started loving myself? hahaha thatd be wild and totally isnt a real thing that happened

I can’t believe Juliet Capulet is teaching people self love. what a legend.

[trashy-alyssa]

WHAT DO YOU MEAN STARK SANDS AS SHAKESPEARE KISSED ROMEO ON THE CHEEK DURING IT’S MY LIFE FOR HIS FINAL SHOW????

[trashy-alyssa]

Let it be known I can never refer to Frankie as “Francois.” Like that’s Frankie de Boi wdym????

if I had a nickel for every time my tumblr posts were used to market some of my favorite musicals, I’d have two nickels. which isn’t a lot, but it’s weird that it happened twice!

[trashy-alyssa]

I’ll really be like “I’m fine” and then cry over a comedic jukebox musical about Juliet Capulet…

[trashy-alyssa]

Romeo from & Juliet is babygirl. He told me so himself. Sorry 🤷‍♀️

To anyone reading, thank you, thank you, thank you. It means the world to me to know that the McCarter RTC run wasn’t for nothing, and that it touched people like you.

As for how you and others can help, I would ask that you contact Arena Stage, where RTC will be produced next with the same production team from Princeton, and let them know how the fans feel. I did my own outreach to their Executive Producer/President, and had no success. The PDF showing my conversation with him [linked here] can also be requested by emailing me at yannickemirko@gmail.com, you’re welcome to share the thread upon receiving it.

The most important things to let Arena Stage know are that RTC fans demand their production do the following:

1. Cast an actor with the appropriate disabilities necessary to play Ricky.

2. Ensure the set is not just Equity compliant but ADA compliant for that actor’s safety.

3. Recognize the contributions of disabled actors, namely yannick-robin eike, toward making the RTC script humanizing to Ricky rather than explicitly ableist.

If you or others would like to make these demands known to Arena Stage, you should tweet at them @ArenaStage on Twitter and direct your emails to edobie@arenastage.org as well as press@arenastage.org.

I mulled over whether or not to reach out to Arena for the whole year, and when I did do it, I thought I did so with professional candor—yet, it didn’t work. So I don’t know what else I can do beyond asking for help and taking this to the press, such as Playbill, etc. I am scared, but I have been given a gift that I thought was impossible: I don’t feel alone in this anymore.

 Yours,

yannick-robin eike mirko

TLDR: I was fired for being disabled, and am watching the erasure of disability history before my very eyes.
