So let’s talk about No Longer You from Epic: The Musical

I just finished listening to The UnderWorld Saga from Epic and even though it’s the shortest saga out of the musical the amount of lyrical symbolism and foreshadowing from this saga is incredible but I specifically want to talk about No Longer You and how this song uses foreshadowing to its advantage but also to show the inevitable character growth and development that Odysseus will actively go through in Act 2. Tiresias, when Odysseus first meets him and gets his prophecy pretty much not only tells Odysseus how his journey will end but how to do it. First is, ‘’I see portrayals of betrayal, and a brothers final stand’’ now to Odysseus this seems like he is going to lose another member of his already dwindling crew however to the audience and those who know of the myth know that this is to show Eurylochus’s mutiny that will/is happening, its hinted at in the opening verse of Puppeter that Eurylochus was going confess to Odysseus that he’s the reason why the wind bag was opened, so this was pretty much a warning by Tiresias for Odysseus to be very careful of those around his crew, so this might come into play in Act 2 about Odysseus being a little more apprehensive around Eurylochus and his crew. Second is, ‘’I see you on the brink of death. I see you draw your final breath. I see a man who gets to make it home alive but it’s no longer you’’, these lines are the most important in the entire musical cause it show that at some point on Odysseus’s journey back home he will go through such a change that the ‘’final breath’’ is to show that the Odysseus we knew since the beginning of the story will ‘’die’’ and a new Odysseus will emerge to do what ever is necessary to get back home and will accept ruthlessness, I also find it interesting that Tiresias says the exact same words to Odysseus when he first got his prophecy it’s as if Tiresias is almost telling him ‘hey, this is what’s going to happen to the exact dime, change your way of thinking now or you will not live long enough to get back home’ and in Monster, Odysseus finally accepts ruthlessness and at this moment I believe is the old Odysseus’s ‘’last breath’’ and in Act 2 we will see how this new Odysseus will use what ever tools he has to get back to Penelope and Telemachus. No Longer You is an excellent use of foreshadowing and how it can be used to show a character’s growth and development and this song should be studied for writers to help better use clever foreshadowing in there stories just, aaarrrghh it’s so good!

#wait.... oh my god he was gonna confess he's the reason the bag was opened #why did i think eurylochus had a crsh or something im an idiot

In honour of the end of the first act:

#well i had issues back in 2020 and got into harry potter #then i saw thomas sanders make a video relating t harry potter in his series called sanders sides so i watched it and got into sanders side #then there was this popular and crazy talented artist in the sanders sides fandom called ABD illustrates so i watched his videos #he makes a video every halloween where he makes drawings based on musicals and since im a theatre geek i watched them all #for one of his musical videos he drew indie musicals and one of them was EPIC which he heavily recommended so i checked out some of jay's #tiktoks which have been uploaded onto youtube and was hooked as soon as i heard calypso's music #that was unnecessarily complicated for comedy #also yes epic the musical is the reason i have this unhealthy obsession with calypso

People spend so much time running away from prophecies it’s refreshing to see someone just go ‘fuck it I’ll save myself the trouble and fulfill the prophecy’

little sister back at it again with the epic the musical takes

Odysseus: the Gods have allowed me to live another day and I’m going to make it everyone’s problem

The Gods, getting ready to boot him to Calypso’s island: actually we did not allow that

[caleohateclub]

Jay in the recap: so it’s sorta ambiguous if he actually kills the infant or not

MONSTER: if i gotta drop another infant from a wall

[caleohateclub]

Tiresias: sorry man, I saw Penelope with another guy

Odysseus: I will throw another fuckin baby off a wall

[caleohateclub]

Just A Man really asked ' when does a man become a monster?' and Monster went there and fucking answered it in the best way possible.

the transition from the shaky, heartbreakingly soft ‘bye mum’ into the screaming of ‘ALL I HEAR ARE SCREAMS’ is destroying me rn
