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.

Well, that’s that then. No more of me asking if Bad Cinderella is good or not because it’s fucking closing. The show has been open for only just about 3 months. THREE MONTHS. 
I don’t understand musical theatre fans anymore, you may not like a show, but you don’t have to bully the cast, crew and so forth because you don’t like the show. You don’t have to bully them to the point that they close the show. You don’t have to celebrate when the show closes. 
DO YOU NOT REALISE HOW MANY FUCKING PEOPLE ARE GOING TO LOSE THEIR JOBS? IT’S NOT AS IF THEY ARE FUCKING MILLIONAIRES. DO PEOPLE NOT REALISE THAT BEING AN ACTOR ON BROADWAY IS ONE OF THE MOST UNSTABLE JOBS A PERSON CAN HAVE? 
You have NO guaranteed job, NO guaranteed pay, NONE OF IT. YOU CAN BE IN A SHOW ONE MINUTE AND UNEMPLOYED FOR MONTHS, YEARS EVEN, STRUGGLING TO PAY BILLS AND JUST LIVE. Just because they’re actors, doesn’t mean they’re rich. They may have fancy gowns and suits but they still have families and money doesn’t last forever. 
So before I end this rant that should never have had to happen, I’d like to apologise to ANYONE who is in Bad Cinderella because to be completely fair, they deserve WAYYYYYYYY better than the treatment they’ve been receiving. THEY ARE HUMAN BEINGS FOR FUCKS SAKE, THEY AREN’T JUST THERE FOR YOUR ENTERTAINMENT, THEY HAVE FEELINGS. 
I feel really ashamed of the theatre fans right now and embarrassed by some people's behaviour and the audacity they have to say such hurtful things about something that the talented cast of Bad Cinderella worked hard on. 
The only thing I can do is hope that the cast and crew have a happy and fun time while the show is open, and a happy closing AND I hope they all get to be a part of some really fucking great shows because they deserve praise and awards and first and foremost, respect.

Listen, I have never seen Bad Cinderella. I know people say it’s crap and all that BUT I have heard positive things about the B-Way version. Like there was a review where the person said it was very camp which made up for it, so I really hope it’s actually good cause otherwise I just feel sorry for the cast who put in their time, effort, blood, sweat, tears, vocals, dance moves, acting skills, mind and heart into it because you can tell they’re having fun and that they enjoy it and if it doesn’t do well or isn’t that great then that just really hurts my heart. I would also feel sorry for the crew as well cause the lighting looks great from what I’ve seen and the set is beautiful and the costumes for like the ball are GORGEOUS, I mean...
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Look at the construction, that’s stuff that takes hours and hours of hard work and loads of money too, so it just kinda sucks for the cast and crew I guess. I really hope it’s good though. If anyone has seen it on B-Way feel free to give opinions, they would be appreciated.

Ok so hot-take time:
Why whenever an actress has red hair, does her sexy level get boosted? like she could be drop-dead gorgeous and like prime sex-on-legs material but make her a redhead and there we have it ladies, gentlemen and gentlefolk, MILFs. *Cigarettes are a bonus sexy (don’t ask)
Don’t believe me? I have evidence:
Exhibit A) Bernadette Peters
Blonde:
Tumblr media
She looks cute and innocent and poofy
Redhead:
Tumblr media
I mean... milf material right here
Exhibit B) Emily Skinner
Blonde:
Tumblr media
I mean we’re already sexy as hell so I don’t know how we could get better-
Redhead:
Tumblr media
I was wrong, I got better
Exhibit C) Kate Baldwin
I can’t find her in anything without her being a redhead and she’s sexy in every role so that must mean something
Redhead
Tumblr media
Can-Can Kate is literally the sluttiest Kate and I’m here for it. She needs to play more sluts
Exhibit D) SJB
Brunette:
Tumblr media
She makes me feel my gayness
Redhead:
Tumblr media
MILF MILF MILF MILF help me gay panic
and finally...
Exhibit E) Carolee Carmello
Blonde:
Tumblr media
Sure, she’s sexy here but wait, there’s more
Redhead:
Tumblr media
We have red hair, we have a suggestive pose we have a long cigarette what more could a confused gal want?
And thus my friends, my point is proven. Being a redhead makes sexy actresses into MILFs, thank you and goodnight.
You can have a complimentary redhead Ruthie Henshall for the sake of it,

I know it’s early days but if someone happens to make a slime tutorial for Bad Cinderella on Broadway please notify me. The Sentimental Men said that Carolee Carmello’s entrance is iconic and so I need to see her and Grace McLean be iconic sexy queens together, ya know?

Sometimes podcasts are hard to listen to. Hearing Donna Murphy talk about Marin Mazzie the week that Marin died just hurts in a place I didn’t know I could feel hurt. The podcast is The Fabulous Invalid, Episode 2: Donna Murphy: Getting To Know You if anyone wants to listen to it

Can we just take a moment to appreciate the total mood that is Emily Skinner as Desiree Armfeldt in ALNM? I mean come on, we all have those moments.

“In my dad’s stories, the most beautiful woman is always my mom”
Listen, Edward Bloom could be a liar or whatever and he could be the most stubborn man on Earth. But according to this single line Will says, he is the best man ever.
It’s just so sweet, I can’t even.
