Gatsby: An American Myth's creative team being largely female driven is especially felt in its big climactic number, The Dream Fought On. Taking place right at the peak of the Plaza Hotel fight, the song initially focuses on Gatsby's rising panic before it's taken over by two women lashing out against a society that has locked them in place: Daisy's realization that Gatsby's need to have her is no different from the objectification she's endured her entire life ("I'm not a light you can reach to, but someone to love" - sung from her to Gatsby), and Myrtle's declaration that she's wasted on the Valley of Ashes and deserves to be surrounded by people who live instead of haunt ("You're not a man, you're a ghost I could walk right through" - sung from her to Wilson).

That said, the song ultimately ends with a reminder that these two women are not sinking in the same boat as Myrtle's attempt to break out of her poverty is brutally torn apart by Daisy taking the wheel of her own story, the latter's wealth and race allowing for an escape from all consequence ("Salvation's coming" - the ensemble ironically sings as Daisy races towards Myrtle). While it should be noted that the original book's ambiguity on these characters' thoughts serves as its own commentary on the role women were expected to play, this team's desire to earnestly capture their voices and the nuances behind them is what is makes this such a thrilling adaptation in my eyes.

I feel like instead of the Maze Cutter series, we would enjoy a Maze B TMR series. Like, yes, I know we already know what's happened in the books, but it would be great to see other POVs

I think it should go something like this:

The Maze Runner (Group B) - Rachel, since she's Thomas's opposite.

The Scorch Trials (Group B) - Aris, because I need to see what was going on with his and Teresa's planning.

The Death Cure (Group B) - Sonya, because she's a part of the group that escapes before Thomas and the others do, and she's one of the ones chucked back in the Maze.

Or Aris for all three, because my Roman Empire is Movie!Aris and I really wanna love Book!Aris.

Just a thought.

i think we as a society should talk more about the girl gladers in group b so here's a moodboard inspired by it <3

If Comet really does go to the West End next year, I need Mia Kobayashi and Rachel Clare Chan to play Natasha and Sonya more than I need to breathe tbh

[astralpenguin]

Sonya slammed on the door.

“Sorry,” came Rachel’s voice, not sounding the slightest bit sorry. “We’re not letting you out until you’ve admitted how you feel!”

Sonya let out a frustrated groan and turned to Harriet. “Wanna help me break the door down?”

Harriet looked around the tiny closet they’d been shoved into. “I don’t think we have enough room.”

The slightest movement made them brush up against each other.

Not that they minded.

Sonya sighed. “Sorry,” she said. “I know you wanted to keep things just between us for now.”

Harriet smiled. “Don’t worry. Turns out we’re not subtle.”

The New York Times Review:

The Broadway revival of “Romeo + Juliet” plays to the TikTok crowd. But maybe that’s a good thing.

Source: New York Times Oct 24, 2024 (X)

Mostly positive, which is impressive from the NYT! Hopefully offsets the negative reviews. (X)

Kit Connor and Rachel Zegler and a viral pull-up

…Connor needs no help in keeping and maintaining the emotional temperature, easily enlarging the tenderness and obliviousness of his Nick on “Heartstopper” to fit the stage. When he looks into Juliet’s eyes, you see what he wants and how seriously he wants it; when he walks among his riotous peers, as they hump Teddy bears and sniff out insults, you see how little that means to him now.

Connor is also a very physical actor, or at any rate his recently beefed-up, often tank-topped body is given a workout. Instead of just climbing to Juliet’s balcony — represented by the design collective dots as a flowery bed that descends from the heavens — he does a leaping pull-up from the ground to get there, then lifts himself farther to achieve full face time. This is a lover with lats.

But a manly Romeo and a tiny Juliet — Connor is nearly a foot taller than Zegler — creates, or reinforces, a problem. It’s disturbing enough in the Shakespeare when Lady Capulet tells her 13-year-old daughter that “ladies of esteem” her age are “already made mothers.” With an actor who, despite his baby face, looks much older than his years (Connor is 20) and an actress who looks much younger than hers (Zegler is 23) you’re left in an indeterminate space between ancient and current levels of ick.

It’s wise, then, that despite the supercharged sexuality of the staging otherwise, Gold limits the pair’s lovemaking to gropes and kisses.

…Gold’s staging is perhaps the busiest and funniest I’ve seen, a lot of the humor coming from the dotty nurse, whom Shakespeare designed for that purpose. (She is played with Valley Girl snark by Tommy Dorfman, who also plays Tybalt.) And though there is, of course, violence, it is broadly mimed and deliberately mild. What the production emphasizes instead is unfairness, as teenagers tend to do as well, wanting limits to excuse their whining.

The play is thus less terrifying than teenifying — hence the plus sign instead of the “and” in the title. The lobby, lit like a junior high school prom, offers not just the expected merch and specialty mocktails but a table where ticket holders can learn about registering to vote. The choreography by Sonya Tayeh lands perfectly in the zone between professional movement and what a nerd might do in front of a mirror. Fangirling and fanboying are strongly encouraged. There is nothing unlikable about any of this.

It’s a little slick, though, at least for seen-that adults. The play’s twisty language, expressive of twisty thoughts, is largely untangled but, in the process, flattened. (Gold’s edit brings the running time, not counting intermission, to “the two hours’ traffic of the stage” Shakespeare mentions, but some of that traffic is stop-and-go.) I smiled a lot but never came close to crying.

Is that a reasonable response to aim for when staging the world’s most famous weepie? For me, seeing so many young people engaged, it is. Perhaps, as Shakespeare commands in the play’s closing speech, they will “Go hence, to have more talk of these sad things.” And so what if the production achieves that goal by protecting them from too much unruly feeling, just as the Capulets aimed to protect Juliet? Probably, the Capulets were right.

Have you heard much about the Broadway Gatsby show (or maybe even seen it)? I have an opportunity to see a show this summer, deciding if it should be Gatsby, and I feel like you're the top authority on "is this Gataby thing worth it" :)

So, here’s where and how Gatsby stage adaptations are having a WILD year:

There are two different Gatsby musicals that have, or are about to, premiere.

1) The one that has already premiered and been running performances is titled The Great Gatsby—A New Broadway Musical. The creative team behind it is Marc Bruni, Dominique Kelley, Kait Carrigan, Jason Howland, and Nathan Tysen. This one has not gotten terribly spectacular reviews in spite of a strong core cast. I have not seen it and do not plan to, because…

2) …second one, which has literally just begun preview performances at American Repertory Theater in Cambridge, MA, is GATSBY: An American Myth, and I am seeing it on Saturday. This is the one by Florence Welch, Thomas Bartlett, Martyna Majok, Sonya Tayeh, and Rachel Chavkin. I haven’t been able to find reviews yet because it’s literally in the process of premiering, but as soon as I see it Saturday, I’ll be writing an in-depth review. I’m both ecstatic and terrified.

I guess what I’m saying is, one has already been around for a bit and there are many reviews available out there that don’t excite me, whereas the involvement of Welch and Chavkin alone on the other production has set my expectations high. I’m also seeing the touring company of Beetlejuice again on Sunday, so I’m likely to be an entire holy terror babbling about musicals this weekend. Watch this space!

[notebookmusical]

save me gatsby: an american myth at the american repertory theatre (music by florence welch & thomas bartlett, choreographed by sonya tayeh, directed by rachel chavkin, book by martyna majok, with isaac powell as gatsby, ben levi ross as nick ("from the beginning the creative team wanted to portray Nick as a gay man who is at a turning point in his life—leaving the war, leaving his twenties, searching for purpose, safety, love, and excitement"), solea pfeiffer as myrtle, eleri ward as jordan ... save me ...
