OH?

[my-burnt-city]

i've been doing some reading around sleep no more extracurricular events to see if i can get a sense of how the tbc ascension spring party (sprinty) might shake out, but now i just have a new chaos casting for my wishlist, if paul ever one day feels like returning to me woolwich and picking up a whole new vibe

(and austin should absolutely come too)

Greek mythology reference

In this year’s Mayfair, Paisley Players were performing a play loosely based on the Greek myths of Hades and Persephone.

Hades, the God of the Underworld, was played by Paul Zivkovich; Persephone, Hades’ wife, queen of the underworld, daughter of Zeus and Demeter, was played by Alex Jenkins; Demeter, the goddess of the grain, agriculture, harvest, growth, and nourishment, was played by Troy Ogilvie; and Hecate, goddess of magic, witchcraft, the night, moon, ghosts, and necromancy, was played by Austin Goodwin.

ALRIGHT, CHRISTMAS IS OVER, TIME TO GET OVER-EXCITED FOR THE *REAL* BIG EVENT OF THE HOLIDAY SEASON

[my-burnt-city]

Welp, whether we like it or not, it's the holiday season, and I believe I have been fairly good this year, so this is a list of things that I would most like for Christmas please

- more shows with missing characters, for the opportunity to see how the show carries on in their absence (specifically a Lonely Zagreus Show please, but I'd love to see a Lonely Hades Show too)

- the chance to see my faves in the roles I have yet to see them play (such as Ali Laocoön or Stephanie Macaria)

- the chance to see my faves in roles they have yet to play at all (you *know* this is about Fania Hades but also Ali Aegisthus)

- existing cast members to take on new roles generally (which has already started, and I understand that more is coming, and I'm very excited about it!)

- ideally with just a bit more gender-blended casting in favour of the female performers (Miranda and Maya would absolutely SMASH Neoptolemus and Patroclus and you know it)

- a few more TDM alumni to join the cast (literally all I want out of 2023 is Omar Gordon Agamemnon, ideally with Fania Clytemnestra, but any of the remaining TDM cast would be a delightful addition)

- at least one good production photo or clear video appearance of every character (EXCEPT LAOCOÖN, WE MUST NEVER LET THE OUTSIDE WORLD KNOW THIS CHARACTER EXISTS, purely because it's funny)

- THE SOUK (I understand there are reasons why we will never get this space dressed for public consumption, but I'm still going to dream about it)

- a really great time at the Remix (please no 1:1s!) and the subsequent New Year's party!!!

- and, like, some snacks and a cool keyring, idk

my main takeaways from shopty are that vini needs to be invited to every party ever, and eric's personal wardrobe is my most unexpectedly favourite thing

happy new year, it was sick as fuck to see in 2023 in such a stupidly meaningful place to us and you're all the very best of people, very much looking forward to our continued association in the months ahead

It has been suggested that it might be useful at the Burnt City Remix if there's some kind of hand signal that can be deployed if there's any sort of Drowned Man reference or content, so that people who are newer to Punchdrunk who wouldn't get it can still be made aware that something multi-level and super cool is happening

For the record, we do not need to prearrange or come up with a special hand signal, because if I see or hear ANYTHING that takes me back to Temple Studios then I will be doing this

feels like an official announcement might be imminent............... 👀👀👀👀👀

don't tell anyone, nothing's official or announced yet, but a little birdy (a particular ticketing app) suggests that you might wanna clear your diary for sunday 30th april, someone's off to visit her mother and might be throwing a going-away party......... 👀👀👀

give Apollo a dodgeball at the sho+pty

[te-pu-si-ti]

I've had this necklace for several years, I wore it to the party portion of the sho+pty, and two separate people at different times mentioned it's "very Hecuba"

It did not occur to me at all, but they're so right (even though it's made of zippers)

[te-pu-si-ti]

Someone will post a picture of a messy desk and Punchdrunk fans will lose their goddamn minds
