today on Musical Theatre Stuff That I Would Have Never Expected To Ever Happen

[djjamesryan]

[weclassybouquetfun]

It was a time for reunions for a very good cause. Fundraising for the Wisconsin and Michigan Democrats took form in two virtual live performances.

First up on Friday night was FRIGHT NIGHT (the original flavor)

which reunited the core cast William Ragsdale, Amanda Bearse, Stephen Geoffrey, Art Bell, Jonathan Stark and Chris Sarandon, 

joined by Ben McKenzie, Mark Hamill, Rosario Dawson and in a cheeky bit of casting, fellow film vampire Jason Patric,

Saturday saw THE ROCKY HORROR PICTURE SHOW live event with a stacked cast of who’s whos and who’s that???

The event featured original cast members Nell Campbell, Tim Curry and Barry Bostwick, along with Rachel Bloom, Rosario Dawson, Seth Green, Lance Bass, Colleen Ballinger, Jason Winston George, Wilmer Valderrama

and so many others like Jason Alexander, Frankie Grande, Amanda Palmer with The Dresden Dolls, Patrick Stump of “Fall Out Boy”, Marissa Janet Winokur, Keala Settle, Jenna Uschowitz of “Glee”

Garrett Clayton

and Ben Barnes.

But what would there be without people from the Armie and Timothee Cinematic Universe?

Eiza Gonzalez

and Rumer Willis (who is now going by Rumer Glenn Willis).

There were people surprised that Rumer could sing but like her mother, 

Rumer was on Fox’s “Empire” as a singer

and appeared on Fox’s “The Masked Singer”; and eons ago when The Pussycat Dolls were a thing they would sometimes have guest PCD who would sing and do burlesque with PCD creator Robin Antin’s troop. 

The 1st person to do a Halloween costume sorta homage to Rumer. 

  Two vastly different reunions but they are connected by one thing: Susan Sarandon. How? Susan, of course, was Janet in “The Rocky Horror Picture Show”, but she is also the ex-wife of “Fright Night”s Chris Sarandon

You can understand why she kept his last name. Gotta keep a piece of that hot man.

[i-write-shakespeare-not-disney]

I do plan of having the title of the chapter have a relationship with the song, for example, the second (or first, technically) chapter is 'Learn to smile' and I want to make Smile from R5 the song for that one, but still is fine if it just goes with the lesson. So the themes I have no song for so far are: learn to laugh, learn to make friends, make others laugh, to accept yourself, to accept your past, to say sorry, to open to others...(I have plenty more XD)but well,any suggestions for those?

hmmm off the top of my head: 

> I Hope You Dance by Lee Ann Womack

>The Lazy Song by Bruno Mars

>Real Friends by Camila Cabello

>This is Me by Keala Settle

>All I Want Is You by Barry Louis

>Count on Me by Bruno Mars

>Shake it Off by Taylor Swift

>Give Your Heart a Break by Demi Lovato

>Unconditionally by Katy Perry 

>Sorry by Buckcherry

>For You by Angus & Julia Stone

>Party on the Weekend by Make Out Monday

There’s so many more but here’s the link for my playlist with all the songs on my playlists and then you can check out my profile for more specific playlists by genre/theme and whatnot. I could help a little more accurately if I know what chapters need songs or what they’ll be about, but since you’re on anon, I’m assuming you’re not entirely comfortable with that which is cool! Just let me know if you need more help!

“The Favourite” scores the top spot at the Dorian Awards

This week, GALECA, the Society of LGBTQ Entertainment Critics (of which I am a proud member) announced their annual Dorian Awards for excellence in film and television. It is awards season after all, and this list of winners and nominees were solely curated by queer, trans and non-binary writers and critics who work in the entertainment media world. The acclaimed 1700s lesbian love triangle film, The Favourite, took the top prize as did its star, Olivia Colman. A Golden Globe and a Dorian? Surely an Oscar is next. LGBTQ Film of the year went to the Melissa McCarthy helmed, Can You Ever Forgive Me? which is based on the life of lesbian writer and sometimes con artist, Lee Israel. Just like the Globes, Sandra Oh picked up a Dorian for her excellent work in Killing Eve, the cat and mouse, will they or won’t they, thriller from BBC America. The delightfully delicious A Simple Favor, starring Blake Lively and Anna Kendrick, picked up the Campy Flick of the Year award. Frankly, Lively’s collection of tuxes in the film deserve their own award. The Wilde Wit of the Year award, “which honors a performer, writer or commentator whose observations both challenge and amuse” went to comedian Hannah Gadsby, whose stand-up Netflix special, Nanette, was a real game-changer. Below is the full list of nominees and winners.   Film of the Year Can You Ever Forgive Me?

The lyrics are powerful and so are the kids speaking to us through sign language in a video catching many eyes on YouTube.

When the sharpest words wanna cut me down.

I’m gonna send a flood, gonna drown them out.

They are deaf and hard of hearing students from Bankbridge Elementary School in Sewell, which is part of the Gloucester County Special Services School District.

But nothing they say and do in just over four inspirational minutes is silent, nor is it difficult to understand the concept of acceptance that will make you feel. Trust me. Your emotions will bend,

The lyrics are powerful and so are the kids speaking to us through sign language in a video catching many eyes on YouTube.

When the sharpest words wanna cut me down.

I’m gonna send a flood, gonna drown them out.

They are deaf and hard of hearing students from Bankbridge Elementary School in Sewell, which is part of the Gloucester County Special Services School District.

But nothing they say and do in just over four inspirational minutes is silent, nor is it difficult to understand the concept of acceptance that will make you feel. Trust me. Your emotions will bend, taking on happy tears, pride and sheer joy.

I am brave, I am bruised. I am who I’m meant to be, this is me.

Alyssa Cop, the music therapy teacher, knew the students – ages 6 to 11 - would connect with “This is Me," a song by performed by Keala Settle from the film, “The Greatest Showman."

“It talks about what it means to be different and still be who you are," Cop said. “No matter who you are or what your differences are, we are all connected to the power of music."

The children get it. Their public has, too, after the video posted in March. Cop and classroom teacher, Jen Hansbury, had no idea so many people would be drawn to the video. It has nearly 30,000 views.

Take a look at 9-year-old Raymond leading his classmates down the hallway, his face bearing an intense grit that says he won’t be bullied, that he will ignore bad things people say.

Another round of bullets hit my skin. Well fire away cause today, I won’t let the shame sink in.

“I wanted to have my facial expression right," said Raymond, with Hansbury interpreting. “I was saying this (bullying) is not going to happen."

Look out cause here I come.

And I’m marching on to the beat I drum.

In several parts of the school, they’re marching and signing. Down the steps, and through the hallways with staff and high school students from Gloucester County Institute of Technology dancing and clapping behind them as the vocals take over.

Cop and Hansbury said the students feel like they’re famous and are still surprised about the fuss everyone is making over what they’ve accomplished.

“It’s weird," Kayden, 7, said. “But it’s a good weird."

Josthin 11, said he was a bit embarrassed. Not over the excitement. “It’s hard looking at yourself," he said after watching the video for the first time.

No need to feel that way, Josthin. You did good. The song is proof, and these lyrics you signed with your classmates says it all.

But I won’t let them break me down to dust. I know that there is a place for us.

We are glorious.

The video was a year in the making, a project that students said made them feel brave, strong and proud.

MacKenzie, 7, was determined to do well. After school, she said she had her mother play the song so she could practice.

In one scene, 6-year-old Isaiah is all by himself, but you can’t tell that he’s nervous standing by the school doors.

“Everybody was looking at me," he said.

He nailed it, signing his way through his part, showing grace, timing and innocence. He was convincing.

The best part for their teacher is when the credits roll. Hansbury’s students used different adjectives to describe themselves.

“They are all signing their unique trait," Hansbury said.

And, none of the words had anything to do with their being deaf or hard of hearing.

“That was a big moment for me to watch them do it," Hansbury said.

Diego, 10, signed he is silly, likes to have fun and dance; Isaiah is beautiful. Why? His mother said so. MacKenzie is athletic and good at soccer; Josthin is fast on skateboards and scooters; Kayden is smart and likes school; Cory is an artist. Wait. Can’t forget Raymond. He’s perfect. It’s his way of saying he’s no different than people who want to treat him differently.

“People say, ‘oh poor kid’ sometimes," he said. “I’m fine. There’s no difference. I love you."

Love is all over this video. They huddle in the middle of the gym floor with staff and students surrounding them. The music is loud, reaching its climax. They’re feeling the vibrations and the energy is high.

I’m not scared to be seen

I make no apologies

This is me.

hi again! 👀, 💘, 🧸 for any OC(s) you'd like? :3

hi laya! i got rohan as requested but i've been thinking about my og blorbo keala lately so she's on here too with the other canon ocs. ty for the ask!! sorry it got really long lmao.

does your oc believe that they are attractive? do they use that to their advantage?

rohan never noticed appreciative stares because they only lasted as long as it took to see his brand. on the surface, he was kind of busy, but zevran taught him how to use his body as a weapon in more ways than one.

nicholas is hot and he knows it. he uses it as conflict deescalation. he'll make a joke when his friends personalities clash, he'll distract the guard/nobility from a target so they can escape, etc. other than that, norah might kill him if he tries to use his "feminine wiles" on her one more time. it doesn't' work. stop flexing your biceps. (in the background, varric is banging his head on the table).

cody doesn't personally find herself attractive? but she knows other people do, and totally abuses this power. when she was a barkeep, it was to get better tips and politer customers, as herald to earn more favor, and as cody, it's solely to win friends and influence cullen. cullen has no power in their relationship, his girlfriend is too pretty and rewards him for good behavior, he's completely useless.

keala is attractive but doesn't pay any attention to it at all, and frequently forgets, so no, she doesn't use it.

is your oc a good flirt? are they charming?

rohan is incredibly charming in an innocuous kind of way! and he's not a good flirt in the way that his method of flattery involves telling people that they way they use that knife is really sexy. which really only works on zevran.

nicholas is very charming, and a great flirt. when it comes to women, it's the follow-through he has trouble with. he doesn't know how to take it any further. the bigger problem is once he gets with fenris he doesn't know how to turn the charm off. stop hitting on him! his boyfriend might glare you to death!

cody is an incorrigible flirt. she's terrible at understanding the difference between being friendly and flirting, so most people think she is when she's not. but also, all of her inquisition friends have been on the receiving end before. from cassandra to solas to bull to rylen, she flirts, and they all know she only means it playfully. she and bull are pretty bad about it, but she and rylen are actually worse. they're both solely teasing cullen. he's tired of both of them.

keala is charming in an unintentional way. she's just so earnest about how nice you look today, that you can't help but be endeared.

into public displays of affection or are they more reserved?

rohan will never really get over the idea that it's not safe to show affection. don't let anyone know that you have a weakness, a soft spot. that being said, he will still show affection just in a reserved way about it. brushing against zevran without real intention or purpose. acts of service. eye-fucking, yknow, the usual. things he can get away with in public.

fenris takes a while to open up to public affection. nicholas respects his boundaries about it. when it comes to the hightown market? a brief hand brush or caress is fine. when it comes to their friends, a casual kiss or grope is fine. when the agregio comes out, one will be lucky to avoid having to bleach one's eyes.

cody is as openly affectionate as she can be while still being professional. she has a public image to maintain or josie will kill her and then thedas is doomed, so despite wanting to pinch cullen's ass on the practice yard, for the good of thedas, she cannot.

keala is very openly affectionate! facial kisses, holding hands, or delrin's personal favorite, coming up behind him when he's not in full plate, and wrapping her arms around his waist and pressing her face into his shoulder blades.
