#Freddie chess

[officialfreddietrumper]

Okay, but if you imagine The Interview, with the questions and comments actually being Freddie towards himself??

-Here we are face to face once again.

Considering the last time they saw each other, Freddie not only lost the championship, but lost his temper and consequently Florence as well. Freddie might be coming into the Interview as more in a position of power (as he references in ONIB), but that doesn’t mean he’s ecstatic to have this discussion.

-Has being homeless affected your game? No, by a home, I mean real home- the place where your family is.

This song is before PTC, but once you get the reveal- this line just breaks me. Freddie is homeless, by his own definition. Father abandoned, mother uncaring. And at this point in the show, he’s truly alone.

- What are your latest political aims?

Freddie’s here on behalf of Global- just another pawn ♟️ in the game of Chess. What *are* his political aims in the show? In Act One, he’s staunchly anti-communist/Russian, but where does he stand now?

- Your anti-Russian crusade, has it worked?

Clearly, it hasn’t. Anatoly won the championship. Anatoly won Florence.

- What is your true motivation? That is something we all want to know.

For a lot of chess fans, Freddie is a simple character. He’s a jerk. A misogynistic asshole chess phenom. But throughout the musical, and depending on the version/actor, there’s hints that there is more to Freddie. And Chess, as a concept, can literally have character motivations and backstories change from book to book. So, what exactly *is* Freddie’s true motivation? Hard to say!

- Here we see a man under great pressure. Two fights to fight, yet he could not look fresher.

I mean- look at him!! White Suit Freddie my beloved. And he is under pressure. He’s Walter’s pawn, a fallen King.

-Chess and politics, I take my hat off to any champion who can pull that off.

Freddie was crap at balancing the politics and the game itself. He’s a chess player. He’s a champion. I just don’t really ever think that he was in it for the political aspect. Maybe in some versions, I guess? I’m still exploring the Chess Multiverse, but generally, I really think Freddie tells us. He played, because he loved chess. He used being a champion as a way to try and get some of the love he didn’t get growing up. The attention. All just for chess- not politics.

I booked a cameo from Adam Pascal & I asked if he had any insights as to how he approached playing my two favorite of his characters- Roger & Freddie.

And he was super sweet and genuine, talked about how he’s not really much of an actor and more of a singer- but that Roger was natural for him since he was a rocker before moving to premiere in Rent.

He did say that since Chess was a concert version, and that Chess is such a hard show musically, he really just focused on singing it 😂. But he did describe Freddie as just being a huge egotistical phenom and I was like….

Yeah but he’s my blorbo and I love him. 😘

FREDRICK "FREDDIE" TRUMPER - CHESS THE MUSICAL

reasoning: gets called "a fruit" by his opponent, calls himself "probably queer", does NOT seem interested in his girlfriend whatsoever. has some gayass songs. invites his "enemy" to a temple to "talk chess".
