#broadway shop

[waiting-makes-me-antsy]

okay guys one more question about the shop im opening on saturday (sorry it wont be online)

SO, i'm thinking of doing commissions while im there. for example, i'll have a list of musicals I know really well (newsies, dear evan hansen, be more chill, etc). Now there will be a standard price for a piece of art that has to do with these shows (ex: $3.50 for a fullbody character reference (with color), $5 for a custom sticker headshot of that character, etc).

you could ask for a certain version of the character (like, "oh i only want the west end version" or "the broadway version with [insert name]" or "i want the 1992 version of racetrack" which would cost you an extra 50 cents because I would be doing the original versions of the characters (so like original broadway or original cast recording version but for newsies since the 2017 version is more popular that would be the default))

then, if you want a character from a musical I don't know as well (like say moulin rouge) it'll cost like, a dollar or two extra (just because I don't have too much of a general idea of these characters and i would need to spend more time researching them).

what do you guys think? would y'all buy smth like this?

Musicals are time loops. Every night, the same thing happens except for a few minor differences. It always ends the same. If you want the characters to do something different or to make better choices, too bad. The actors are bound by the script and the score. The only way for the time loop to end is for the show to close. But you (the audience) don't want the show to close, nor do the actors who would like to be employed. It's a lose/lose situation. For the actors, audience, technicians, and for the characters, who are forever stuck in the same stretch of time.

If I had a nickel for every time Jeremy Jordan showed up in random media I’d have-

so many nickels. Someone needs to stop this man. Please.

In order to compensate for the fact that someone decided Cats needed to not have cats in it, we will replace the human characters in at least one musical with cats. We are hosting a poll to determine which musical will go full Jellicle in order to restore the balance of the universe, lest we unleash the flesh monster which resides in Patti Lupone's basement.

Love how in Sweeny Todd Mrs. Lovett and Sweeny Todd are both freaks but they're freaks on completely different wavelengths.

The only reason Todd is bothering to continue breathing is for revenge. The only interest he has in anything or anyone around him is how they might help or hinder his cause. The only relationship he's legitimately emotionally invested in is with his straight razor.

Meanwhile Mrs. Lovett thinks she's in a rom-com where her old crush has come back to help her get her struggling restaurant on its feet, but her crush's ex keeps coming around trying to ruin everything.

Both of them go the whole musical without fully realizing that their brainworms are mutually unintelligible.

Antony is there in the background oblivious to this entire dynamic because he's too caught up in his own gothic romance plot to notice that the castaway he rescued is murdering people.
