I know nobody believes us Finnish Gelphie truthers who were there in May 2011, but I don't care, I make memes to make fun of myself anyway.

“They must go out of the theatre with the strength they live by strengthened from looking upon some passion that could, whatever its chosen way of life, strike down an enemy, fill a long stocking with money or move a girl's heart.”

― William Butler Yeats

Helsingin Kansallis-Työväen Kaupunginteatteri esittää syksyllä 2023 suurmusikaalin Sweeney Todd. Mestarisäveltäjä Stephen Sondheimin luoman klassikkoteoksen teemat, kuten yhteiskunnallinen eriarvoisuus, vallan väärinkäyttö ja inflaatiosta johtuva ruuan hinnan voimakas nousu, ovat tällä hetkellä ajankohtaisempia kuin kosk

THEY MADE OUT ON STAGE?????? (Re FINNISH WICKED???)

They did!! I wish I could prove it somehow, but alas, I can't </3 Me and a couple of other finnish Wicked fans have told about this before but nobody really took us seriously. Honestly, can't blame them since there's no footage of it. But yeah, Elphaba and Glinda full on kissed after finishing For Good (or "Tuun aina muuttumaan" in finnish) and apparently it was planned, since both of the leading ladies were all smug and satisfied about it.

"The event of theater reminds me of sand painting; a ritual intended to lead to a higher consciousness. These monks spend huge amounts of time making these elaborate, amazing mandalas in the sand by the sea. And the ocean washes them away."

—Philip Seymour Hoffman, BOMB 103, 2008
