Mystifying Show at Coney Island, 1926. Big show for 10 cents. History does not record what was mystifying about the show.

New Hyperfixation timeeeee:
So, New York, New York looks incredible and the sets are just heavenly.
As we know by now, I am a little too in love with Emily Skinner, so naturally as one does with their favourite actor, I went looking for production pictures of her and saw this one ages ago.
Tumblr media
Looks like a nice picture, right? Just a simple picture, some photo frames on the wall. Looks like a soldier on one side, some newspaper articles on the other. Notice anything about the ones on house right?
Lemme zoom in for you
Tumblr media
Notice anything now? The top one has a picture on it. New York, New York is set in 1946, post ww2 so Emily’s character would have been performing in the 20s and 30s. Lemme zoom in one more time.
Tumblr media
It’s very blurry, but if you couldn’t tell, that’s a picture of Emily in Side Show as Daisy, I’ll give you a comparison picture;
Tumblr media
They used Emily’s half of the picture and I think that’s actually so cleaver. Like it’s perfect and the attention to detail that like only a person who pays attention to tiny details would notice, but it works so well. Like the whole thing is Madame Veltri would have performed in the 20s, Side Show is set in the 20s which is like 20 years ago in the NYNY plotline and Side Show was just under 30 years ago and Emily (obviously) looks younger in the picture. I just think it’s really fucking smart to be honest.

Starkid January 2024 Starkid Dreamcast Poll
Hey, remember these? I know these polls don't get a lot of votes since I've already done a majority of the musicals that people are actually into but I hope you still vote so I can know what you all want to see. Remember the top four picks will be this month's dreamcasts!
Make your vote count!

a Valentines from a parallel universe where FREAKS was popular enough to have a cheaply-made Saturday morning cartoon which was then merchandised into even more cheaply made Valentines

Sunday reading: Nobody’s Fool: The Life and Times of Schlitzie the Pinhead.
A warm portrait of a performer with a little known, hardly recorded history.
