I keep hearing people saying that nobody cared that to break in a glove was cut from the deh movie alongside other way more important songs but they’re wrong. I care. I’ve always cared. Larry my boy what did they do to you

#I guess it’s finally time to come out of the woodwork and admit I enjoy this divisive trash heap musical that almost no one can genuinely-#Be caught liking anymore because it’s toxic or creepy or whatever and not a story of a ton of fucked up people lying to both everyone else-#And themselves #So unfollow me if you’re deeply disappointed by my morals for enjoying deh #I’ve been. To see it. Second row.#Best decision ever because I could see pins on bags and shit. Connor likes Misfits (band) it’s literally canon for the 2019 tour cast #And I’d never have that without being so close #Anyway if you’re still here and not in full attack mode at the name deh. maybe I’ll make more takes idk #because I’m not saying it’s flawless and hell half the ideas that really bring things together are fanon that then get butchered in-#The adaptation to try and please people #Kinda like the bmc Broadway problem where michael acts like an uwu soft boy because of fandom interpretation #I also saw THAT live. I promise I’m not rich 2019 was just a horrible year for me and I compensated by seeing all my favorite shows ig #ANYWAY yeah this is far down but I guess I’ll finally say what my actual issue is #Larry is so important to me man #And they fundamentally butchered his character in the movie by making him a stepdad. Yknow people who commonly have trouble-#Connecting with their step children #No dis to stepparents but that’s like normal. The fact it’s his actual bio dad and these are the parents he’s stuck with is kinda important #And also the way Larry and his grief are handled extremely subtly in the show #Like you will be found is honestly kind of a slow song to me usually BUT when I saw it on stage I broke out weeping #Not because of any other reason but it’s when Larry’s facade finally broke where he stops being put together and breaks down and weeps #In his wife’s arms. And like. Damn did I see me at my cousins funeral also dealing with a similar grief and trying NOT to #For so long to keep the rest of the family together #And that moment of breaking was so fucking real and I just started sobbing #Deh NEEDS to be seen on stage to possibly comprehend it and it’s weirdo story and that’s kinda it’s biggest flaw lmao #The synopsis and the actual intricacies of the emotions in the show are so far off. And the movies a terrible example #So now it’s just a universally hated thing #Anyway #number 1 Larry defender #Until the end of time #also the fact they cut any songs and add their own is deeply insulting when they cut two of the universally best ones. Good for you IS the
