1976 ad for Whizzer and Chips. Out Monday May 17! I used to think Whizzer and Chips were two different comics that had merged in the time honoured tradition. Not in this case though. It was called Whizzer and Chips from the first issue in 1969 with the twist being they were two 'rival' comics inside the same comic. Treasury of British Comics.

Hi falsettos nation (extra down yonder 👇👇👇)

[amazing-spiderlad]

It will never not be funny to me that Chip Zien sang the lyrics "He's on his knees, I'm lying flat, just like a bad idea, he starts to blow" and didn't realise his character was supposed to be gay. Man just straight up didn't realise he was doing a sex scene. Legendary.

back at it again with the falsettos obc

OG Falsettos casts Revival Falsettos in an old playbill article.

Well, one of them guessed right. It probably helped that Michael did two previous shows with Christian, during which Christian fangirled about Falsettos and Marvin. It is really cute that he did think of him.

Leslie did attend opening night and I think this is the first time I’ve heard from Jonathan since the original closed. It’s cool that he came back for this.

Whizz Kid or Chip-Ite

what went through chip ziens mind when he literally sang "hes on his knees, im lying flat, just like a bad idea, he starts to blow, i start to fight" and thought that song was about whizzer going to florida... what a guy 💕

[late4dinnerlateagain]

I was listening to music at work and during Subway by Chappell Roan my coworker looked at me and said “where did she get away? I hope it was somewhere nice like Hawaii” and all I could think was this is the same energy as Chip Zien thinking Whizzer going down was about Whizzer going to Florida.

Little things from the 1993 Falsettos that I love

Literally anything Chip Zein does

Bitching at the bed

The almost kisses are torture

Mavin introducing Jason to Whizzer

They're so fucking dramatic

These karate moves

More drama

I love that at the end of this one of them goes "MWAH!"

"It's queer Mr. Marvin..oops" and when Marvin says "What gives with you today?" (and basically all of Marvin at the psychiatrist)

Pinch

The way Michael Rupert sings "That's what pretty boys should do!"

I love Breaking Down in the revival but something about this staging just gets me

Honestly same Mendel

This little heel kick

Whatever the fuckl this is

More fantastic staging

Marvin throwing a tantrum

Stop I love them

I don't know what this choreography is but I love it

Get it Jason

"What was the name of that BITCH?"

"I wanna see the BALD SPOT!"

Cordelia braiding Charlotte's hair in Everything Will be Alright

The way Heather MacRae sings "Do you know how great my life is."

Boop

Marvin's little victory lap

"You people are so white."

"Look at your couch it's homo-baroque."

I wish this was in the revival

:,)

Marvin whispering "Stop, stop" during this scene always gets me

This little I love you gesture breaks my heart

He's so fucking over this

Guy's we're in a hospital keep it down, jesus

Marvin's soft "Oh, fuck." at the end of Something Bad is Happening (reprise)

When Whizzer leaves the stage for the final time he doesn't exit through the door and I don't know the symbolism in that just makes me sob

I probably overall prefer the pacing and staging of the revival, but the obc is so so fucking good. Thank you for coming to my TED talk
