les mis arena tour in Amsterdam!! (Notes)

Act 1 I'M WRITING DURING BREAK

The person playing bishop myriel (Hans Peter Janssens) is someone very dear to my mom, since he played Valjean in the very first les mis she ever saw! We didn't know he was on the cast list and my mom was so happy. He has such a beautiful low voice ughh

Javert is one of the best javert's i've seen because he looks so smug about himself, in the runaway cart scene, when he was talking about having found 'Valjean' he has small smirks from time to time. He is slightly unhinged idk how to explain it, the actor totally sells you on the idea of Javert: so good at his job and extremely proud of himself for it. His stars was amazing aswell. He is so self-rightous and you can really SEE that with this Javert.

Milan van Waardenburg as JvJ, i've seen him before in the role and still amazing. His desparation after the bishop gives him the candles and his anger at Javert during the confrontation are so strongly felt ugghh...

I love the intro to another day older it's so goooood

FANTINE'S I DREAMED A DREAM GAVE ME SO MANY CHILLLLLSSSS AMAZING, she's so amazing the sadness in her voice........

I actor that plays thenardier is really funny but i find his song line delivery a bit bland sorry... The litlle bits he throws between are perfectly delivered though. BUT THENARDIERS WIFE ON THE OTHER HAND IS AMAZINGGG SHE DOES IT PERFECTLY NOT A SINGLE MISS I SWEAR

Marius is perfectly in love as he should the actor has such a clear song voice

Enjolras has a really strong voice, he stands a bit awkwardly? But his body language is so clear and he sings beautifully

Grantaire perfect line delivery gudjjd

Eponine has a beautiful voice i'm really looking forward to her solo next act omgggg

Colette's voice i so high i always forget my mouth falls open every time she sings it's so beautiful

The shared song between cosette, eponine and Marius DID NOT DISSAPOINTTT THEY WERE AMAZING

ALSO I WILL NEVER STOP TALKING ABOUT ONE DAY MORE IT WAS SO GOOD SO GOOD CHILLLLS CHILLLS

I'm really looking forward to act 2 I NEED TO LOOK UP THE ACTOR NAMESS ufjdhssjsbz

Act 2

On my own gets me EVERYTIME TIME. Stunning performance by Aviva Tulley as Eponine omghf.

When Gavroche called Javert out he dropped the act so quickly LMAO. He started practically snarling at the barricade boys like a restrained dog 10/10.

A this point Enjolras really clicked with me. Before i thought he stood awkwardly but that's not really true. His body language is really clear and his anger palpable, you can fully see him as an intimidating, angry and passionate revolutionary leader.

Grantaire n Enjolras drink with me was really good. When Grantaire was singing his bit Enjolras walked up to him and looked him dead in the eyes, they held eye-contact for the entire part of Grantaire's bit. After he was done singing his part he kinda slowly reached out to Enjolras and touched him on the lower chest area. The screens cut out then so i missed half a second, but Enjolras kinda shoved him out of the way and went to join the other Amis. Ehm, yeah i see u.

Gavroche's part with picking up the bullets wasn't included :(

When JvJ cut Javert's bounds ohghh. There was a full 5 second staredown between the two, WITHOUT MUSIC. Javert took a tentative step towards Valjean but then growled and turned around when Valjean told him to leave. Ohh it was v good.

The following deterioration of Javert was also really good ejishdidd. His soliloquy was beautiful he sounded incredibly lost. He didn't hold the ending for very long though so :( still amazing tho

JvJ carrying Marius on his shoulder was NOT something i expected. Usually they do a litlle shuffle, arm-over-shoulder type deal. Really hammers home how strong JvJ (and thus Milan) is HELP. Also he carried him off stage in bridal style afterwards.

Drink with me also gets me every time. ITS SO SADD i get close to tears everytime. Marius sounded like he was about to burst out in tears at some point. It was really good.

AND THEN JVJ DYING AND THE ENDING WHERE EVERYONE SINGS TO THE AUDIENCE..... also gets me EVERYTIME oh my god it was amazing

I HAVE TO GET TO THE CAR I'LL FINISH UP EVERYTHING TOMORROW UFGHDHS IT WAS SO GOOD SO GOOD HELP MEEE

The performance was STELLAR. I was sad about the staging because there is very litlle, but it makes sense since they're on tour. Bradley Jaden is one of my fav Javert actors now. I've seen Milan before and he's amazing as everytime before, his 'Bring me home' is AMAZING he hits the high notes without effort almost. All the Amis were really good aswell. Cosette, Marius and Eponine were perfect togheter, all their harmonies were beautiful no notes. I just ughhh... It's really good it really is i'm so happy i got to watch it for my birthday. It's probably gonna be a long time before i can see it on stage again so. This'll be haunting my sleep for at least a few weeks.

Thanks for reading

drinking a latte with 2 shots of espresso only and it’s kinda like … :/ well. what is the point

[natequarter]

every time i see a post about bts issues affecting doctor who all i can think is: you haven't known the triumphs and defeats, the epic highs and lows of charting the state of tom baker and lalla ward's relationship via carefully checking how much eye contact they make in a given serial

Hail, Breaker of Chains.

Also love how the My Boy voice memo kinda confirms the narratives in songs were deliberately muddled and some songs may have been inspired by one situation but as the song was workshopped they evolved for story/style/emotional reasons etc.

At the end of the day she’s a storyteller and she writes the story that serves the song the best, which may grow from the original kernel of an idea (or situation), and that’s why she’s so good at what she does.

Considering David Seymour doesn't want to ban the swastika or other white supremacy symbols, and that a lot of gangs use swastikas as secondary symbols, I think we might be about to see a whole lot of brown "white supremacists" emerge

Being a fan of death metal will have you So Scared to look up music to reblog on this website

unfortunately whatever you think im vagueing about in that last it's actually worse and more embarrassing than that and the fact that im reacting this way is in itself a pretty strong condemnation of my character

just saw someone say they would let a specific guy mansplain to them and then said they didn’t know what he was talking about and like. that’s Not what mansplaining means… i think you just don’t value what men have to say in general

[chilapis]

I should redo my theme. Maybe that’ll motivate me to be online
