Drew Sarich as Graf von Krolock 🩸 TANZ DER VAMPIRE

[erebus0dora]

look, since i spent the first week of the year sorting out 20+ years worth of personal archives, i return with just some fairly quiet ramblings, and i hope 2025 is treating you well

I KNOW HE DRANK A BLOOD

The German musical scene is so funny, because we got like 5 (five) dudes who have all played the same roles plus a bunch of Dutch women

Thinking about that time Drew Sarich completely abused his baton privileges as Javert and it was the best thing

[24601orwhatever]

I get the whole appeal behind the “JVJ despises Marius” thing, but in the context of the musical, their relationship being more tender is so SO good

Marius being so excited to have a father again, only to lose him immediately after … valjean saying goodbye to “the son [he] might have known” 🙅🏻‍♂️

Drew Sarich is such a king for yassifying both roles

[emptymasks]

so @mangledpuppet made this post asking if this was drew sarich in 'tanz der vampire'

and i'm here to say yes it is and i have videos! i wanted to add this as a reblog but you can't upload videos in a reblog of someone elses' post so i hope making a new post is okay!

it's from the 2009 vienna revival. he took over the role from thomas borchert before that production ended in 2010. as someone else said in the replies of the original post, they never ended up having him fly in the actual production as far as i'm aware. i've never seen any photos of videos of thomas borchert flying so i don't know if they tried this with thomas and didn't follow through and then tried again with drew and didn't follow through. or if they introduced this idea for drew and then didn't end up including it.

here's a trailer for the 2010 revival once drew took over the role, there's a couple shots of him flying in this

can't post more than one video in a post anymore turns out so here's a link to where you can watch the trailer: vk.com/video-9610195_159404875

but better than that, there's a behind the scenes video of drew learning to fly (which i found some years ago on the 'tanz der vampire 'tanz der vampire (wien)' facebook page, they posted it in 2011.

i don't know why this screenshot in particular is so funny to me, it's like he's descending to greet the people

given the outfit is what he wears in the finale (of the kentaur re-staged productions) and the backdrop seems to be the outdoor scene where alfred and sarah are before the final number i wonder if krolock would have flown right before the start of the final number?

here's concept art of the wings:

and i'm sure i have this trailer somewhere but it's late and i couldn't find it but i do have a gif of it

there he goesss.

i hope this was interesting and not annoying to tag you in

HOWLING BARKING WOOFING SNARLING

[marijuanaragdoll]

With so many people getting into The Vampire Chronicles I think it’s time for a resurgence of Lestat, the musical. Particularly this song.

Euch Sterblichen von morgen Prophezeih' ich heut' und hier Bevor noch das nächste Jahrtausend beginnt Ist der einzige Gott, dem jeder dient Die unstillbare Gier.

Graf von Krolock in TANZ DER VAMPIRE 🩸

[a-pigeons-soliloquy]

OKAY FIRST OF ALL THERE'S A LESTAT MUSICAL???

and it's drew sarich playing armand????? mr vampire/queer musicals himself??

i need rockstar lestat having a broadway phase and playing himself in a dramatic musical about his life and singing songs from this musical (i mean he's basically had a trial run in the théâtre des vampires)

[erebus0dora]

just adding stuffs created during the livestream; it was... calming, in a way. page 9 out of 20, yet another portrait study, totally should paint him with tentacles...

i mean, he's been Judas, Jesus, Armand, and Lestat at different points of his career, hear him sing, he's amazing (and also a gentle beautiful soul)

we should repeat this livestream thing I've day, methinks

[colourfulshadows]

So, when I say that Count von Krolock from Tanz der Vampire (Dance of the Vampires) is Armand-coded imo, this is what I mean :D Because "I want to be free and even freer, but I can't break the chains that bind me I want to be a saint or to be a criminal And yet I am nothing but a creature that crawls and lies and has to tear apart whatever it loves" like helloooooo???? (fair, there's also a dash of Lestat in him) Meet my personal vampire-musical-god Drew Sarich who has played Armand, Dracula and Count von Krolock on stage Oh, and tdv fans: go engage with the vampire chronicles

[eddienonense]

“Drew Sarich abusing his baton privileges” has been very popular recently so I felt it was time to drop the extended version…

I know, I’m abhorrent for keeping it from y’all, but in the full video Valjean wipes his mouth after okay
