#🧅#non greek speakers you truly don't know what you're missing out on this show is BULLSHIT it's SO GOOD#AND IT'S IN GREEK. AND HAS LIKE. TWO AND A HALF PRODUCTION SHOTS. I STILL LIVE EVERY DAY WITH THE HOPE THAT THEY'LL BRING IT BACK AND I#CAN GO SEE IT it's RIDICULOUS how good it is. if this show was in english y'all would be going INSANE over it#which. it truly should have been.#and not because I don't like my language or whatever. but because greece is very racist#most of the libretto is taken straight put of the book so y'know im not going to come in and tell you moby dick is racist. like hello .#but . like. tashtego is played by a white man.#i haven't seen a picture of dagoo or pip or fedallah ora close enough picture of queequeg to be able to tell if he's white but i wouldn't b#surprised if queequeg was also played by a white man#greece has issues they don't understand anything. however. the music ? the staging ? fuck#this would blow y'alls minds#i truly hope someday it's translated and handled better by people who know what they're doing#with casting i mean#cause greece doesn't understand anything they genuinely don't see the issue with this
