Hadestown is the best take on the myth of Orpheus and Eurydice, because all over the internet I see people say, "You're not supposed to think of how he could have succeeded! That misses the total point of the story. Everyone was doomed and there was no way anything could have worked out alright. If you're imagining a scenario that didn't end in tragedy, you're just an arrogant fool. Just shut up and be sad about it"

But Hadestown says, "please please please think of how it could have been. Orpheus would have never looked back if he just had hope, please have hope, he would have wanted us to have hope. If you don't walk out of this theater thinking of how it could have been, we have failed you. go have hope, go see the world in the way it could be, so help us"

not normal about orpheus and eurydice. you loved someone so much it opened the stones of the underworld. so much that death had to listen. so much that everything stopped for your love. so much that you turned around. so much that even when you did wrong. she forgave you.

falsettos is so funny to me because for most shows you can make the joke that it would be so much shorter and easier for all involved if they just went to therapy but not in falsettos. mendel weisenbachfeld is so bad at his job that he broke the meme.

Here's a silly little Paul Matthews drawing! Ignore the tears, he's perfectly fine! Just... a little goopy. Oh, and fun fact the little star shaped pupil is supposed to resemble Pokey's star shaped pupil in my Pokey design.
