Me When The Stakes Are High And The Goofy Character Gets All Focused And Serious:

who looked at the newsboy strike of 1899 and went “yeah they should all be doing backflips”

legolas is such an important character to me because of how at a surface level when you first watch the movies you see him as this aloof mystical tactical elf-prince but then when you really start getting into his lore you realise he’s essentially just some homeschooled kid from the middle of nowhere who applied to a huge university in the big city to get away from home and is genuinely baffled at everything he sees and people assume his confusion is him being mysterious when in reality half the time he’s just trying to process what the hell is going on

If someone tells you to listen to a song, listen to it.  It may be the worst song you have ever heard but they wanted to share it with you.  That is really special.  If it makes them feel a certain way and they are so adamant about you hearing it, take 5 minutes to hear it.  It shows a lot about someone.  

Today hasn't been very good. Reblog to cover prev in blankets and tell them everything is going to be okay and they're loved.

i’m tired of seeing posts saying that releasing proshots of musicals will kill the musical theatre business because it really won’t. it’ll reach a bigger audience that way. folks who have never even considered watching hamilton before it was on disney plus are starting to watch more musicals after seeing it. after watching the proshot of into the woods i’ve never wanted to see it on broadway more. legally blonde is one of my favorite shows because i got to watch it recorded, but i still want to see it performed as a part of the audience. i watch the heathers bo0tleg like three times a week! i still want to see it in person because it’s an experience.

and also, how could i not mention that broadway is an american thing and west end is a UK thing. there are so many other countries out there who don’t have the money or the ability to see big shows. same thing goes for disabled folk who don’t have the ability to go because seating for them is limited and sometimes even nonexistent. i mean, think about it. if someone’s deaf, at home there’s subtitles. if a show doesn’t have seating for people in wheelchairs, there’s a proshot at home they can watch. if someone doesn’t have the money to travel to new york and then purchase tickets to a show, they might have the money to stay home and watch it for 3.99. non-english speakers can have dubs or subs for a famous professionally recorded show.

musical theatre should be for everyone. not just rich able-bodied people.

mutual pining fanfic is the best fanfic simply because it requires the characters to be at their most romantic and the height of their stupidity at all times
