I found a czech Troy musical...

Yeah, translating the plot, it seems to be more based on the 2004 movie than the Iliad. So, no gays and no gods sadly...

But I rarely see things that aren't from France, Germany or Russia (maybe a small amount of hungarian RetJ) on here, so I think it is still worth mentioning.

Keep in mind that I don't speak czech, so everything I say here might be wrong, if my online translator failed me.

This is a rock ballad between Agamemnon and Menelaos, probably singing about how they're gonna torch Troy because Menny's wife left him. If you can't ballad about invading a country with your brother when your wife left you are you even brothers?

This is the finale of act 2 and honestly, this is one of my favourite songs on the album (the other one is achillova pata (achilles heel)). It has the surviving roles singing an anti-war song, which is actually a czech cover of a german song by Reinhard May. The title translates to "I won't let you take my sons".

So, now you know that this exists. If you want more, there is at least one more song on their channel and you can listen to the album on spotify and youtube.

Hope you enjoyed getting pulled into this small rabbit hole by me or are at least a bit intrigued by this odd little musical.

The Fall of Doriath musical stream

Do you especially enjoy the doom and despair parts of the Silmarillion? Then I have the musical for you! Pád Doriathu is about the end of said forest realm, and the downward spiral at the end of the first Age of Beleriand. It's by Falešné Společenstvo (a czech musical theatre group who has 6 full-length Silm musicals so far).

If you don't speak Czech, like many of us, all of the songs and the prologue have automatic english subtitles from the original script. With the dialogue, it's more context/vibes-based. But still very enjoyable, and the beautiful music of course transcends language barriers.

You can watch the musical here on yt, but if you would like to watch it in a group, the Last Homely Server is hosting 2 watchparties again. Hope to see you there!

Stream 1: 30th of November, 18:30 CET Stream 2: 1st of December, 10:00 CET

Maedhros in defiance and despair after the Sack of Doriath

A collection of graffiti tags and murals found on Cesky Drahy trains. This journey in particular was the S7 from the main station in Prague to Beroun. The City Elephant type trains dont cross borders, and thus are not as regulated for graffiti and tagging. Here is a compilation of artwork featured on the trains of Prague, with a live recorded electronic music score.

Tři oříšky pro Popelku / Three Wishes for Cinderella (1973 režie Václav Vorlíček)

Tak už znáš odpověď na mou hádanku? Tváře umouněné od popela, ale kominík to není. Klobouk s peřím, luk a kamizola, ale myslivec to není. Šaty s vlečkou, stříbrem vyšívané, ale princezna to není, jasný pane. Kdo je to?

Only music from the Vltava River Valley is truly “Prague Rock,” similar music from elsewhere is merely “Sparkling Nerdcore.”

You, Silmarillion fan, do you enjoy pain?

Then come to our stream of Děti Húrinovy (Children of Húrin) by Falešné Společenstvo (a czech musical theatre group who has to date 6 full-length Silmarillion musicals). There is loss, grief, pain and anguish in spades, and the occasional unexpected, but very welcome humorous interlude. Also gorgeous music.

"But I don't speak Czech?" Me neither! But luckily for you they have just added english subtitles :D

"Ok so where can I watch this?" The full musical is here on yt, but if you would like to watch it in company, the Last Homely Server is hosting 2 watchparties. See you there!
