#rip European lyrics. We will honour you in our hearts
Europeans translating American musicals: So we worked closely with the original composer to make sure our translation is as faithful as possible while remaining a singable rhyming translation. If a literal translation is not possible, we use a localized replacement that works in the target language. Please don’t hate us, we tried our best!!!
Literally anyone translating European musicals: *splotches lyrics on a plate like spaghetti, spits in it, and shoves it in your general direction* Here’s your stupid Eurotrash pop slop in English, happy now???? Also, we turned your corny-ass fauxpera into a comedy and replaced half the score with useless reprises. As is PROPER.
friends. romans. countrymen. i am asking. i am begging. please use headphones when consuming audio content in a shared space.
dere you go
I would be the worst spy of all time because on one hand I overshare like hell, but on the other hand I also have THE shittiest memory so it’s really a lose/lose scenario for everyone involved.
Alright today's question. could you get away with naming your kid after your favourite blorbo yes or no
And what I mean is would it work both as a name for an actual child and is it a common actual name or is it something more obscure. And is it from a media where people won't recognize where you got the name depending on whether or not that's a good or bad thing
Neither enemies to lovers nor slow burn but a secret third thing called Schrödinger's intimacy. We are in love and we are not in love do NOT open that lid I swear to God.
#what about giving Tod a sword instead of a fishing rod/whip like in the Hungarian production
#also I'm very curious what these two would do with the 2005 staging (the Matè staging 😂)
todolf is alive and well.gif
This is so true...
Also Maté!Herbert strikes me as being the most sincere one; like with the modern ones I get the impression that they're being "fake" nice to Alfred to lull him into a sence of security/mock him, but Matè!Herbert is just so 😃😃😃
Very sincerily trying to be on his best behaviour...and all his little sweet smiles! And, of course, the sudden switch to the Vampire Hunger is a bit of a contrast, but then again, Matè!Herbert is VERY sincere and his face shows what he feels...and well...for vampires, hunger/thirst can be pretty strong...
We don't talk much about what kind of love-filled Herbert is played by mate karamas
Ahhh I'm watching the tape of the speech and just CMON HRRBERT JUST KISSSSS HIS LIPS WHILE YOU'RE DANCING PLEASEE
Herbert is just glowing with love for Alfred, isn't it noticeable?
"Zero chemistry" is so mildly put 😂
For the ones who only saw the award video - this is like, a 122% better than what happened in the production on stage.
On stage they just. Took two ends of a rope. And pulled a bit. À la whip-pulling from the German staging. But with a think rope. Except of that no eye contact or touching whatsover save for ONE moment when Der Tod stroked the cheek of a kneeling Rudolf with the butt of the gun
(@fitzrove about Rudolf - I suspect he has a condition, because one side of his face is like "frozen"; especially visible in interviews)
Hi there! The Dutch Musical Awards were yesterday evening, and they always include some performances from the nominated shows and what else is in the theatre at the moment. And they did "Er valt een zwarte schaduw" (which is "Die Schatzen werden langer" in German?) From Elisabeth the musical! The performance is on YouTube, check it out:

Thanks for the link!
Milan sure is doing something (tm) as Death (he's fine, there have been much worse ones in Germany - not sure about that falsetto opt up lmao but idk, he's decent) but wow, these people have zero chemistry😭😭 I don't think the guy that plays Rudolf is even acting or trying to show what the character is feeling in this scene, he's just kind of there???
me skipping german class for the 4950697th time because i don't feel like travelling to uni
