Leitmotifs drive me insane, like I hear *repeated melody that has an association with a person, idea, or situation* and I go *tears up the fucking rug like a dog*

If there was ever an example of "God is in the details," it's the line that opens this show: "Attend the tale of Sweeney Todd." Detail 1: the use of "attend" to mean "listen to" is just archaic enough to tell the audience that this will be a period piece. Detail 2: the idea of a "tale" suggests that the audience not take the story realistically but as a fable, and opens them up to accept the bizarrerie of the events which follows; it also promises a story that will unfold like a folk ballad, foreshadowing the numerous choruses of the song that will pop up during the course of the evening. Detail 3: the alliteration on the first, second and fourth accented beats of "Attend the tale of Sweeney Todd" is not only a microcosm of the AABA form of the song itself, but in its very formality give the line a sinister feeling, especially with the sepulchral accompaniment that rumbles underneath it. If all of that seems like the kind of academic hyperanalysis which regularly shows up in studies of literary forms, I can assure you that even if the audience is not consciously aware of such specific details, they are affected by them.

i think it's funny when people act like Evan Hansen is the most problematic musical main character. like have you not seen Sweeney Todd?

I am once again giving you a poll

I hope you guys are enjoying these polls as much as I enjoy making them. Some of these shows I just don’t talk about as much as I would’ve when I was really into them, so getting people responding to these from shows I used to absolutely adore is always really nice :) ty all for voting, hope your days are well ❤️

You consume happy media when you’re feeling bad? Nah, I consume inescapable tragedies.
