I love this musical
"Carl you know she doesn't spell well when her blood sugar is low"
"Well we have to get her stamina up! The bee could last for three hours Dan"
"Don't talk to me about stamina, Carl"
*gay gasp*

I'm fine it's just the way Roger wont leave because he loves Gordon even though Gordon begs him to and when the four unlikely lovers ignore everything just to enjoy one last night and when Barfée considers letting Olive win. It's just the way Roger stays by Gordon's side without question even though the one thing we know about him is that he'd rather be sailing. It's the way Mendel never gives up on trying to keep his family together because he just wants them to be happy. It's the way Logainne's father jumps onstage to calm her down when Panch lashes out. And Gordon finally letting Roger love him and Marvin loving Whizzer so much he doesn't know what do with himself and Barfée paying Olive's entrance fee after winning. I'm fine it's just the way Arthur always comes back and is no matter what described as the most wonderful human being.
I'm fine–

This is incredibly niche, but… Avatar: The Last Airbender AU fusion with The 25th Annual Putnam County Spelling Bee.
Sokka is Chip Tolentino. The winner of last year’s bee, he’s experienced, highly intelligent and a little too cocky. But this time he gets… distracted by Ty Lee’s friend Suki in the crowd.
Ty Lee is Leaf Coneybear. She’s not that smart. Her sisters have been telling her that for years. She came third in her district bee, but the winner and runner-up weren’t available on the county one’s date.
Mai is Marcy Park. She succeeds at everything she does, only sleeps three hours a night, isn’t allowed to cry… and is not all business.
Aang is Logainne Schwartzandgrubiniere. His adoptive dads - a younger Tashi and Gyatso, the former strict and ruthless, the latter kind and more lenient - have high expectations for him and he lives in fear of disappointing them. He is precociously aware of and involved in social activism.
Azula is Olive Ostrovsky. She’s taken to the bee by her big brother because their father is working late again and their mother has recently left the country, and spends much of it struggling with her insecurities as her dad continues to not show up. Then to her amazed delight, she finds that she’s making a friend for the first time.
Toph Beifong is William Barfée. She has a magic foot technique, tapping words out in braille. She probably could have won last year if her overprotective parents hadn’t pulled her out against her will the instant her competitors got a little mean. Her growing bond with Azula is purely platonic (unless you ship them, which I don’t).
Piandao is Rona Peretti. He won this bee as a child. Treasuring that memory and valuing the discipline and excellence that accomplishment entails, he has become the moderator, taking pride in helping the new generation thrive under pressure, discover their potential and learn life lessons.
Zhao is Douglas Panch. He’s bitter about being a vice principal instead of a principal. Five years ago he stopped working at the bee due to an “incident”, likely because of his anger issues. But he’s totally fine now, he swears.
Jet is Mitch Mahoney. He’s an ex-convict being the bee’s comfort counsellor for his community service, just eighteen himself. Though jaded, he comes to care a lot about the kids.

hey there! was feeling under the weather for the past week or so and I've not been posting much but I realized I have a (small) backlog of stuff to post, so I guess I'll start with this! (ft. some ramblings under the images if you're interested in that ;)
Tumblr media Tumblr media
two versions bc like i said last post, i think seeing the flats are neat :) also because i only really added some basic soft shading because it was needed for the atmosphere of the background i made the art for ahaha
anyways! this illustration based on characters from a musical I'm currently in + doing the art direction for! if you're a big musical theatre person, you can probably (maybe? hopefully?) guess who these guys are! they're the spellers from the 25th annual putnam county spelling bee! 🐝✨ half based on typical costuming half based on what i could remember of our costumes from trying them on earlier in the rehearsal process hehe :') i tried to draw them with slightly exaggerated proportions to bring out the fact that they're supposed to be kids and to go along with the show being pretty all over the place with its feel since they're actually adults playing kids bahaha
funnily enough i sketched some character designs for these guys and this is not quite how I would've designed them for a TV show or something similar, but the people we have in our cast eerily embody each of these characters really well and that's who i ended up making them resemble most for this illustration :)

Looking for theatre friends
Hi, my name's Aron. I've been a musical nerd/theatre kid for as long as I can remember if I'm being honest. I remember how big the fandom was in 2018, but I haven't really interacted with anyone since then. So we're gonna try to change that! My favorite musicals are: - Spies Are Forever - In Trousers - Falsettos (I have a preference for the original 1992 musical, but I like the 2016 revival as well. The Marvin Trilogy is my favorite ever) - Something Rotten - Next To Normal - Rocky Horror - Ride The Cyclone Other musicals I enjoy are: - A New Brain - The 25th Annual Putnam Spelling Bee - The Guy Who Didn't Like Musicals - Holy Musical B@man! - Avenue Q - Six - The Book of Mormon - Beetlejuice - School of Rock - Bare: A Pop Opera - Phantom of The Opera - Heathers - Little Shop of Horrors - Hairspray - Legally Blonde - Waitress - Bring It On - Firebringer - Trail to Oregon - Jekyll & Hyde - Bonnie and Clyde
And many more! My musical playlist is over 24 hours. I'm currently trying to get into Anastasia, Hadestown, Eurydice, and The Lightning Thief. I'm re-watching Starkid shows right now, especially since Nerdy Prudes Must Die just came out.

Is it really a musical if you don't want to put every single character in therapy?

🎭Theater Kid Guy Headcanons🎭
As a former theater kid and current lover of all things musical theater, I can sniff out a fellow theater kid from a mile away, and Guy Redacted made my alarms go crazy. So here’s some roles I think he’s played
His first time on stage was in a 3rd grade play where they acted out various fairy tales. Being a talkative class clown kid of kid, his teacher gave him the role of Rumpelstiltskin and encouraged him to ham it up. As soon as he heard the audience laughing along with his antics, he was hooked.
His first time in a real official show was when he played Jojo in a community theater production of Seussical while in junior high. He still has a big soft spot for the show today, the themes of creativity and imagination really stuck with him.
He was in a musical all 4 years of high school
Freshman year he played Leaf Coneybear in The 25th Annual Putnam County Spelling Bee. He wasn’t expecting to be cast as a Freshman, but he was just So Perfect in the role they had to.
Sophomore year he played Lefou in Beauty and the Beast. His “Gaston” was legendary.
Junior year he had his first big leading role as The Leading Player in Pippin. The role requires a TON of stage presence, and he enjoyed delving into a more serious role while still getting to have fun with it. He didn’t love how much dancing he had to do, (he’s always been what’s we call “a mover” rather than “a dancer”.), but he did his best. It remains one of his favorite musicals.
Senior year he returned to his earliest theater experiences with fairy tales and played Cinderella’s Prince in Into The Woods. It wasn’t as big of a role as the previous year, but he had a BLAST with it. Guy absolutely SLAYED Agony, he had amazing chemistry with Rapunzel’s Prince, and their duet was as over the top and hilarious as a good performance of Agony should be. Occasionally when Honey is giving him shit he will still respond with “Am I not sensitive, clever, well-mannered, considerate, passionate, charming, as kind as I’m handsome, and heir to a throne?? Honey, I’m everything maidens could wish for!!”
