THE INSPIRATION BEHIND... OWEN RYDER ANDERSON

boston accent / matt nathanson 🎧

the good part / ajr 🎧

young blood / noah kahan 🎧

ryder is ... a gucci tux in a crowded room, skyscrapers, a Boston accent, waking up in a city he's never been in before, hot girls on his arm at parties and a hot boy offering him coffee the next morning, a smear of blue-green paint under a lock of light brown hair, the hum of a sport car's engine, bottles of alcohol on a hotel's dresser top, the product of wealth and toxicity, independence.

There really are no fictional characters or people in my life that inspired Owen Ryder Anderson; he is a product of me wanting to play someone completely different that would fit into this idea that I had of a young character moving to a town that was basically the polar opposite of every place that he had called home growing up... for a girl. Past that, he sort of created himself.

Of course Ryder has some influences from pop culture; characters with big egos but secret, soft hearts. Boys that drank a little too much at parties and got vulnerable, or wheeled around in sports cars but made people wear their seatbelts. Cocky, arrogant types with all the money in the world who didn't really live like it in their every day life. Snappy dressers who looked straight off the runway, but then threw down at the bowling alley in jeans and a t-shirt. Someone famous online for doing something stupid, and probably never creating that magic again... but people still followed them anyway, because why not? Dacre Montgomery himself inspired Ryder, of course -- mostly that era where he was just becoming famous and doing all sorts of photoshoots where he kind of looked like that guy you would hate, but then secretly swoon over. And his artistic side, too, except I went in the direction of abstract painting over poetry.

I knew that I wanted Ryder to have a sort of complicated, borderline unhealthy home life. But nothing triggering or uncomfortable. The kind of life that a lot of rich kids probably grow up with: mom and dad's families pressured them to get married because they each had money and high society standing and would have a blessed rich people union, but they probably absolutely definitely should not have been allowed to reproduce... but did. And named him Owen because they have no taste. I wanted him to have a dad that was sort of an enigma. Does he work in finance? Is he a businessman? Maybe he really actually is in the mafia? Who knows! He's the kind of person who doesn't have much of a personality outside of money -- he uses money to get what he wants and he has no shame in it and no shame in what it brings him, what it allows him to do. His father slept around before, during and after his marriage to his mother and never batted an eye. And his mother... typical socialite mom. Probably never actually wanted kids, but tried her hardest to love Ryder. Her family had connections with the art scene, she always attended the richest events in the finest gowns, and spent as much time in her closet as she did Ryder's play room. Since the divorce, she's cycled through boyfriends. Some good for her, some not so much, some closer in age to Ryder than her, it felt like.

Outside of his family life, I did want him to have some stability, so Ryder grew up with nannies and tutors who took good care of him, helped him grow into a somewhat stable grown up. Somewhat. I wanted him to be a world traveler, experiencing life on the road, so it made sense to me that he grow up with his dad, traveling, learning as he went, visiting city after city, state after state, country after country, continent after continent. He made friends, but not for very long. He slept with people for weeks at a time before never calling them again. His most steady, valuable relationships in his life were the ones forged with his caretakers, whether that was touching, or sad at the end of it all.

One of the biggest inspirations when it came to creating Ryder was his love story. With Ana (hi!) we crafted a relationship between him and her character, Madelyn, in which they met while he was attending college in Boston. Since they didn't live in the same city, their relationship was long-distance and online, at least until he moved to Merrock. I wanted to play this guy who, despite having the world at his feet, was ready to give it all up for love, come to this little podunk town he had only visited when he was younger to see his cousin, and really give it a go at settling down and seeing what could shake out of it. I liked the idea of this big city guy who wore Gucci sneakers and drove a Porsche moving into a small town like Merrock and just let it take him over. Even when Madelyn was no longer a part of the group, I liked watching the way that the town changed Ryder, whether it be in the form of his two best friends that he lived with, the jobs that he was working, despite the ridiculously large trust fund and bank account that just sits there; it's fun.

Some of the aesthetics used to create Ryder are pretty obvious: boys who like fast cars, boys who kiss boys and girls, boys who wear fancy clothes, boys who have money, boys who know they're hot, boys who drink too much on weekends, boys, boys, boys, because in a lot of ways, Ryder is more of a boy than a man, although I do think that he's on his way to figuring all of that out. Maybe before he turns thirty. I wanted him to have a bit of an ego, be cocky and full of himself, but have a lot of it be tongue-in-cheek, and have Merrock be a learning experience in that regard, too, maybe have him realize that it was okay to just be a decent human being, believe it or not. Bisexual, he likes anyone and everyone, sleeps around, doesn't really do serious relationships (anymore, anyway) and has left a trail of one night stands in his wake. I also wanted him to be ridiculously stubborn about not wanting to live in his parents' shadow, wanting to create a life for himself. Hence picking up the job at the gallery and The Garden and trying to live off of his own money. Given that at the time of his "conception" my other masculine characters were Cage, Rafael and Darrius -- Cage being a carpenter who worked with his hands, Rafael being an older gentleman with life figured out, and Darrius being a hulking figure with a soft heart, playing a messy, younger character who was also just unapologetically himself felt right.

I really do not have a lot in common with Ryder... except for art. And that's a very small amount. For example, I took art classes in high school. Ryder graduated college with a whole ass degree and has had several showings in Boston. I haven't, for what it's worth. That's about where our similarities end, though. I don't have money or sports cars or fancy clothes or any of it... but it's fun to play someone who does!

pls i need ajr to add the green and the town to their tour setlist even if it's only for this era (hell even if it's only for one show) because I DESPERATELY WANT TO HEAR IT LIVE AND THEIR TAKE ON IT NOW

and bc giants and all that so it fits with the tmm theme but i am begging 😭

[verymuchablog42]

the urge to make a new nancy wheeler playlist with solely ajr on it is strong

rj, i am here to be the devil on your shoulder and say you should definitely do it

here are some ajr songs i would include that are not off neotheater:

The Green and the Town: this song gives me big "nancy wheeler forming a bond w the other ppl who know about the UD and learning to care about them so fiercely" vibes. because at her core, nancy cares so so much about these people

Burn The House Down: nancy wheeler would fist fight the entire government if given half a chance, especially in seasons two and three

Normal: again, nancy's struggles with feeling so isolated from everyone after losing barb. the drunken halloween fight she has with steve comes to mind here

Humpty Dumpty: similar reasons for Normal and Karma to be on the playlist. nancy cannot go back to who she was pre-UD, but she can't exactly cope with who she is now. she's a badass and a gun slinger, but she never wanted to be either of those things
