So i saw God’s show, Spring Awakening, and it was the best version I’ve seen live and I cried seven times. Here are my thoughts :)
The set was really cool, it had this tree with christmas lights upstage on the wall. 
wendla came on wearing sheet and wore same sheet later when she entered the hayloft scene
her fairy queen dress was so cute!!!
love all the costumes were fucking awesome
wendla had a maturity that I’ve never seen her played with
the adults were all played by different actors, some of which were teen ensemble in the other scenes
mama reprise was BANGIN
so stompy and angry i knew we were going to have a good time
melchior was played the most sympathetic ive seen
even though he was intellectually smart, emotionally he was in the same place as everyone else and it worked
moritz was deaf and had an actor playing his voice!!
fun fact, i took an acting class where i did a scene with the actor who played moritz’s voice
I had to seduce them in the scene and it was over zoom it was a nightmare
they had moritz’s voice say litota multum lines 
idk why they didn’t do what dwsa did for that scene
they didnt pull out mics to sing which i liked
melchior ran stage right all the sudden during all that’s known and i was like go white boy go!!!
bol was awesome but could have been like 2x explosive
an ensemble guy sang “it’s like just kiss some ass man”??
hanschen’s so extra he fuckin put his foot up on a chair to talk to ernst to say the achillies and patrolcus line
every time frauline knuppledick and herr knockenbruch exited they did this synchronized step turn to leave and it was weirdly funny
the girls laid on their stomachs and kicked their legs during my junk chorus!!!
hanschen masturbated facing away from audience
he was so dramatic and hilarious it was a good time
they gave otto’s my junk solo and thea’s second my junk solo to ensemble girls, one of which was my friend and she killed it
it was a good choice
ernst signed part of his touch me solo
melchior and voice of moritz touched moritz during ernst’s solo it was very beautiful and gay
melchior finger spelled genitalia for moritz
my friend in teen ensemble’s character had a gf in teen ensemble and they were very gay during touch me
wendla was really gay with an ensemble girl during touch me
and there was cool choreography!! bol, my junk, touch me, even mirror blue night and guilty ones had awesome choreography without being too distracting 
obc eat your heart out
melchior was just as confused as wendla in woyb
she had this great balance of being curious and then hesitating with him 
she was also very matter-of-fact about having to be home by five it was cute
wendla and melchior didn’t touch each others hands but like put them up close to each other and moved them 
martha👀👀👀
she was angry and recognizes that she’s being abused and i loved it
she nodded after anna’s line
i’ve never seen martha played like that and it was refreshing
they signed beauty during tdikw
for ilse’s verse, martha was sitting behind her on the bed and ilse layed back on her and two ensemble girls put a sheet over her lap
they had a set peice that martha and ilse knelt on for part of tdikw and the girls spun it like in dwsa
they wrapped sheets kind pf restraint-like around martha and ilse toward the end of it
martha and ilse held hands and sang last part of tdikw to each other
all the boys except hanschen hugged moritz at the end of the i passed scene!!!
moritz’s dad signed “what” “failed” and “thank god my father never lived to see this day” to moritz and it BROKE ME
moritz screamed after he left and my heart shattered
the guys were bopping in a rock way with moritz at the end of attwn
shout out to whoever’s android ringtone went off when moritz pulled the gun out
melchior was crying at the beginning of the hayloft scene
i thought wow this is a young boy who doesn’t understand what he’s feeling
the actor really got it
wendla was trying to cheer him up with her line about running through the rain
and he took it as an invitation!!!! bitch!!!
wendla was confused and hesitant during i believe, it was clear that she didn’t understand what was happening
they held up a sheet in front of wendla and melchior while the father was speaking during guilty ones but i could still see them bro
wendla had no idea what had just happened and it was heartbreaking
melchior looked regretful but he still pulled her in and kissed her at the end of the song
she didn’t really kiss back
ilse signed some of her dialogue and part of blue wind to moritz
she was the only person who signed to him👀
she was wearing the big white shirt but just for dds 
in the next scene at the funeral she was back in her dress from earlier in the show
when moritz signed laundry line he mimed hanging himself from it
moritz yelled for ilse after she left like in dwsa and it was heartbreaking
so was ilse’s line about lying on some trash heap
her voice was incredible
moritz’s voice walked off and moritz looked for him before killing himself😭
left behind BROKE ME
frau gabor and frau bergmann entered with their respective children
martha cut herr stiefel this look when she dropped her flower on the casket 
she looked angry the whole number
my friend came in with her gf and they sat at the front of the stage and held each other
MORITZ’S VOICE WAS AT THE FUNERAL
they glared at herr stiefel and slammed their flower down😭
herr stiefel collapsed onto the casket i died
martha’s mascara was running😭
totally fucked was LIT
melchior had awesome energy
they did that weird choreo jonathan groff did in obc but it worked
melchior yelled YEEEEEES it was so funny
vineyard scene WAS THE BEST IVE SEEN IRL
it was a funny scene because hanschen was so extra, not because two boys were making out
you could see he really cared about ernst
ernst was so horny u could tell he was waiting for hanschen to make a move
they didn’t actually kiss, they did the hand over the mouth thing
both of them went in for that second kiss it was adorable
“and so you should” was not manipulative or creepy at all
hanschen and ernst did some of wendla and melchior’s choreo from woyb AND THEY INTERLACED THEIR FINGERS INSTEAD OF NOT TOUCHING
the end of the song was about them and it wasn’t just ilse delivering the letter
h and e hugged and ran off stage holding hands😭
you could see a shift when wendla realized what she did that got her pregnant and it broke my heart
she had the sheet from earlier wrapped around her during whispering and gathered it up and held it in front of her stomach at the very end of the song
i still find the reformatory scene weird and unnecessary
again, the actor who played melchior really understood the character and the show as a whole
he gave himself a minute to realize what he’d done when he saw wendla’s grave before breaking down
this director really got this show
wendla and moritz were physically restraining melchior from cutting himself in part of those youve known
he would not let go of their hands it was heartbreaking
ilse signed and sang the beginning of purple summer
then moritz showed up and signed with her while they looked at each other and they hugged at the end of the verse😭
ernst (who i’m kind of friends with) and vo moritz and were crying at this point and i was also crying but that made me cry harder
i talked to the actor who played moritz in my very broken asl after the show
it was cringe but he seemed to appreciate it (i said “wow!! you wow!! my name r-h-i-a-n-n-o-n. my asl bad. you wow!!”😭)
great show i cried 7 times and am crushing on like 4 different cast members

What I'm writing:
Tumblr media
Wedekind fans/stans/devotees, take heed - this is not a drill - I am indeed currently writing a feature-length screen adaptation of Spring Awakening, because it's never received a full-on cinematic treatment, and to borrow a phrase from Hansy's Act 2, Scene 3 monologue in the translation I'm using, "it's high time." Follow me and stay tuned for updates, mood boards, and other creative goodness! :)

I soon struck up a conversation with Albert Pesso, a stocky former dancer with the Martha Graham Dance Company who was then in his early seventies.

if you think about hazbin hotel through the lens of the VAs’ other roles it’s wild
like cady heron, the daughter of jack kelly, is the princess of hell and is dating rosa diaz. she runs a hotel where dr facilier is the bartender and dawn pinkett is the maid. its guests include beetlejuice and (sorry couldn’t find anything for Blake Roman).
beetlejuice is also an antagonistic angel in heaven always accompanied by elphaba. the head seraphim is the witch (into the woods).
in hell, there is a very powerful group of overlords comprised of willy wonka/shakespeare/marvin/tom levitt, lincoln from tick tick boom and martha bessell. other overlords include mimi marquez, delia deetz and (sorry couldn’t find anything for Amir Talai).

Friends, I need your help. Here’s a quick summary, in case you’re a newcomer to my blogs: I’ve adapted Frank Wedekind’s Spring Awakening (as translated by Jonathan Franzen) into a three-episode miniseries, and I plan on pitching it to production companies. In addition, I adapted and acted in three short films based on the miniseries; these films are meant to serve as tastebud teasers for what the full, finished work might look like. 
First, my friends and I made Spring Awakening - A Short Film, abridged from Act 1, Scene 3, in which Wendla (played by me), Martha, and Thea discuss their crushes.
youtube
The next film was Moritz and Ilse, an adaptation of Act 2, Scene 7, a.k.a. Moritz’s pre-suicide scene, specifically when he encounters Ilse (yours truly). 
Tumblr media
The third short film was In Order To Have A Child, adapted from Act 2, Scene 2, wherein Mrs. Bergmann gives Wendla (again, moi) her version of the facts of life. This film and Moritz and Ilse will hopefully be available on YouTube sometime soon. 
Tumblr media
Here’s where you come in: I’m trying to generate interest on TikTok, especially among my fellow theatre lovers, so I’d be extremely grateful if you’d please spread the word to like-minded souls, and give me a follow there, if you have an account — here’s the link for my profile:
