THIS DAY IN GAY HISTORY

based on: The White Crane Institute's 'Gay Wisdom', Gay Birthdays, Gay For Today, Famous GLBT, glbt-Gay Encylopedia, Today in Gay History, Wikipedia, and more … April 4

1785 – The German writer Bettina von Arnim was born on this date (d.1859). The Countess of Arnim was born Elisabeth Catharina Ludovica Magdalena Brentano, was a writer, publisher, composer, singer, visual artist, an illustrator, as well as patron of young talent and a social activist. Bettina is best known for the company she kept. She claimed deep friendships with Goethe, Beethoven, and Pückler and tried to foster an artistic union between them. Many leading composers of the time, such as Robert Schumann, Franz Liszt, Johanna Kinkel, and Johannes Brahms, admired her for her spirit and her talents. Her composition style was unconventional, in that it molded and melded her favorite features of the old—folk music and historic themes—with unusual harmonies, phrase lengths and improvisations that became synonymous with the music of the time.

No one knows exactly what passed between this willowy creature out of Sturm-und-Drang German romanticism and the poet Karoline von Günderrode. She devoted one of her books to this intense friendship, but since the letters she published as being from Goethe to herself have turned out to be largely fictitious, how much can we believe?

Bettina and Karoline had apparently been lovers. When Bettina overheard a handsome young man talking of his love for Karoline, she jealously reprimanded him for daring to speak of the poet as if he had a right to her love. So pronounced was her outrage that all present were aware that she was speaking as if she had a right to Karoline's love. Shortly thereafter the two women quarreled, and Karoline, selecting a beautiful, romantic spot, unobtrusively blew her brains out. She was 26.

Editor's note: Wikipedia has a different account of why she killed herself (it was because her husband was dying) and it was by stabbing herself with a dagger.

1932 – Clive Davis is a record producer who has won five Grammy Awards and is a member of the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. He was the president of Columbia Records from 1967 to 1973 before founding Arista Records in 1975. He created J Records in 2000 and is currently the chief creative officer at Sony Music Entertainment.

Davis is best known for launching the careers of Aretha Franklin, Rod Stewart, Barry Manilow, Carlos Santana, Jennifer Hudson and Whitney Houston. At Arista, Houston became one of the best-selling artists in music history. Over the years, Davis also signed notables like Janis Joplin, Dionne Warwick, Bruce Springsteen, Pink Floyd and Aerosmith, helping to establish rock, pop and folk trends in the music industry for decades.

In 2013 Davis publicly came out as bisexual in his autobiography, “The Soundtrack of My Life.”

In the book, he admits to having his first sexual experience with a man in the 1970s. “Was I nervous? Absolutely,” he writes. “Did the heavens open up? No. But it was satisfying.”

On the daytime talk show Katie, he told host Katie Couric that he hoped his coming out would lead to "greater understanding" of bisexuality." Since 2004, Davis has been in a relationship with a man, which followed a 14-year relationship with a male doctor.

1932 – Anthony Perkins, American actor born (d.1992); an Academy Award-nominated American stage and screen actor known for his role as Norman Bates in Alfred Hitchcock's Psycho and its three sequels.

Perkins made his film debut in The Actress (1953). He received the Golden Globe Award for New Star of the Year - Actor and an Academy Award nomination for his second film, Friendly Persuasion (1956).

Following this, he released three pop music albums in 1957 and 1958 on Epic and RCA as "Tony Perkins". His single "Moon-Light Swim" was a hit in the United States.

Perkins was cast as Norman Bates in the Alfred Hitchcock-directed film Psycho (1960). The film was a critical and commercial success, and gained Perkins international fame for his performance as the homicidal owner of the Bates Motel. Perkins' performance would garner him the Best Actor Award from the International Board of Motion Picture Reviewers

Perkins reprised the role of Norman Bates in three sequels to Psycho. The first, Psycho II (1983), was a box office success more than 20 years after the original film. He then starred in and directed Psycho III in 1986, but refused to reprise his role as Bates in the failed television pilot Bates Motel. He did play Bates in the following made-for-cable Psycho IV: The Beginning in 1990, over which he had much creative control although he was turned down for director.

Tab Hunter and Anthony Perkins

Perkins was bisexual, having had affairs with a number of men, including 1950s and 1960s film stars Rock Hudson and Tab Hunter, dancer Rudolph Nureyev, composer/lyricist Stephen Sondheim and dancer-choreographer Grover Dale, with whom Perkins had a six-year relationship prior to his marriage to Berry Berenson. He claimed to have been exclusively Gay until his late 30s, when he met actress Victoria Principal.

He said of his bisexual life: "I had wild fantasies, but my erotic experience was mostly solitary. Along the way I'd had homosexual encounters, but that kind of sex always felt unreal to me and unsatisfying. And I had never had sex with a woman - the very thought of it terrified me."

He said of his battle with AIDS; "I have learned more about love, selflessness and human understanding from the people I have met in this great adventure in the world of AIDS than I ever did in the cutthroat, competitive world in which I spent my life."

Perkins died at age 60 from complications from AIDS. One day before the ninth anniversary of his death, Perkins' widow, Berenson, died on American Airlines Flight 11, during the September 11, 2001 attacks. He had two sons: actor Osgood "Oz" Perkins and musician, Elvis Perkins.

1938 – Germany: The Gestapo decrees that men convicted of homosexuality will be sent to the concentration camps. Between 1933 and 1945 when WWII ended, an estimated 100,000 men were arrested as homosexuals; 50,000 were sentenced and sent to prison. Between 5,000 and 15,000 were in concentration camps. After WWII many remained in jail until 1968 because homosexuality was still a crime in Germany under Paragraph 175 which as not repealed until 1994.

1963 – Graham Norton, Irish talk show host, born; an Irish actor, comedian and television presenter. . He achieved fame as a broadcaster on Britain's Channel 4 and also through his role as Father Noel Furlong in the critically acclaimed Irish television series Father Ted. Though he only appeared in three episodes, Norton's performance as Father Noel proved extremely popular with viewers.

Norton is out Gay, and is one of the UK's most famous Gay personalities. In his autobiography, So Me, Graham Norton noted that it was "easier to be Gay than Protestant in Ireland"He has since moved from Channel 4 and done much work for the BBC, with various shows for BBC One and BBC Two, and work on BBC Radio 2. He is also the co-owner of SO Television: the company which produces his various shows.

In January 2009 he made his stage debut in a West End revival of La Cage Aux Folles at the Playhouse Theatre.

1979 – Heath Ledger, born in Perth, Western Australia (d.2008), was an Australian television and film actor. After performing roles in Australian television and film during the 1990s, Ledger left his homeland for the United States in 1998 to develop his film career. His work encompassed nineteen films, including 10 Things I Hate About You (1999), The Patriot (2000), A Knight's Tale (2001), Brokeback Mountain (2005), and The Dark Knight (2008). In addition to acting, he produced and directed music videos and aspired to be a film director.

He is included here for his legendary portrayal of Ennis Del Mar, the homosexual ranch worker, in Brokeback Mountain, for which Ledger won the 2005 New York Film Critics Circle Award for Best Actor and the 2006 "Best Actor" award from the Australian Film Institute and was nominated for the 2005 Academy Award for Best Actor as well as the 2006 BAFTA Award for Best Actor in a Leading Role.

Posthumously he shared the 2007 Independent Spirit Robert Altman Award with the rest of the ensemble cast, the director, and the casting director for the film I'm Not There, which was inspired by the life and songs of American singer-songwriter Bob Dylan. In the film, Ledger portrayed a fictional actor named Robbie Clark, one of six characters embodying aspects of Dylan's life and persona.

Ledger received numerous accolades for his critically acclaimed portrayal of the Joker in The Dark Knight, including the Academy Award for Best Supporting Actor, a Best Actor International Award at the 2008 Australian Film Institute Awards, for which he became the first actor to win an award posthumously, the 2008 Los Angeles Film Critics Association Award for Best Supporting Actor, the 2009 Golden Globe Award for Best Supporting Actor and the 2009 BAFTA Award for Best Supporting Actor.

Ledger died on 22 January 2008, from an accidental "toxic combination of prescription drugs". A few months before his death, Ledger had finished filming his penultimate performance, as the Joker in The Dark Knight, his death coming during editing of the film and casting a shadow over the subsequent promotion of the $180 million production.

Today's Gay Wisdom Queer Pharaoh in Brooklyn

We're not sure about his exact dates (no one is), so we'll choose today to tell you about the Queer Pharaoh Pepi II Neferkare who reigned from about 2278 BC to 2184 BC.

Pepi II was a pharaoh of the Sixth dynasty in Egypt's Old Kingdom. His throne name, Neferkare (Nefer-ka-Re), means "Beautiful is the Ka of Re." Neferkare succeeded to the throne at age six, after the death of Merenre I, and is generally credited with having the longest reign of any monarch in history at 94 years (c. 2278 BC - c. 2184 BC) although this figure has been disputed by some Egyptologists who favor a shorter reign of not much more than 64 years. That's still a pretty long reign. This quibbles are based on the complete absence of higher attested dates for Pepi beyond his Year after the 31st Count (Year 62 on a biannual cattle count).

If you're ever at the Brooklyn Museum of Art you can see a beautiful statue of Neferkare seated on his mother Queen Ankhenesmerire II's lap. Pepi II wears the royal headdress and a kilt and is shown at a much smaller scale than his mother. This difference in size is atypical because the king is usually shown larger than others. The difference in size may refer to the time period when his mother served as a regent. Alternatively the statue may depict Ankhenesmerire II as the divine mother.

What's interesting about Neferkare is a later story about him circa 1800 BC. Referred to now as "King Neferkare and General Sasenet," it talks about the king sneaking out of his palace in the middle of the night to visit his general Sasenet, who is thought to have been his lover. Kind of saucy, but what's really significant about the story is it's an example of a relationship between two adult men rather than between a man and boy as was often the case in the ancient world. This may be the earliest story of a homosexual relationship.

Ion Pillat (1891–1945)

"Scrisoare", 1925

Se lasă iar amurgul pe parcul din Miorcani, Și sgomotul pe care l-am auzit de ani, Cu pulberea luminii sosește pân’ la mine: E mugetul cirezii ce 'ncet cu seara vine, Sunt scârțâiri de care pe drumul greu de rod, E tunetul căruții ce trece peste pod, Sunt chiote de oameni... Ce stranie prelungire Le face să se piardă deodată'n amintire! O toacă bate tainic, un clopot sună lung — Sânta Măria mică e mâine; să te-ajung Nu pot decât cu scrisul, cu gândul și cu dorul. Pe chipul tău, pe timpul ce fuge, trag zăvorul Să mi te prind aicea, tu, cea de eri, de azi, Tu, pururea aceeași la cuget, la obraz. În parcul vechi și unde nimica nu se schimbă, Ci numai anotimpul cu pas pustiu se plimbă, Cum vrei să măsor ziua cu bietul nostru ceas!... De ce apuc condeiul să-ți scriu, când mi-ai rămas! Întâia frunză cade, întâia barză pleacă. Vor da alți muguri mâine și păsări noi pe cracă S'or legăna. Tu singură vei sta când ele s'or fi dus. În juru-mi înserarea pe țarini a apus, Cenușă înoptării pe mâna mea se lasă, O lampă c'o privire a luminat în casă, Că sufletul tău darnic, deschis și liniștit. În drumul vieții mele Miorcanii m'au oprit.... Am fost bolnav de setea de-a fi și eu om mare, Am sîngerat zadarnic svârlindu-mă 'n vâltoare, M'au vindecat copacii. Acuma sunt în stare Cu frunza cea mai mică să mă anin de cer. A înnoptat: orașul și-aprinde cafeneaua; Aici la câmp sting lampa să se apropie steaua Ce-a licărit stingheră la margine de sat. Pe-aleea nevăzută se-aude apăsat Unitul pas al tatii și-al mamii mele; pasul Ce 'l auzeam pe vremuri, copil, când suna ceasul Culcării, așteptându-i să mă sărute 'n pat... O rază albă ramul din geam l'a desgropat: Din umbră mii de ramuri misterios se lasă Cu crengi catifelate pe pajiști de mătasă, Și bolți de întunerec se farmă și se frâng. Ce-a fost adânc în noapte, se face mai adânc Sub arcuri nesfârșite ce tremură 'n lumină, Când se revarsă luna ca o fântână plină... Deschid fereastra: pace, părere și pustiu — Doar inima mi-o roade ceva ca un burghiu Și o fărâmițează cu fie-care clipă. Pe iarbă cade-o poamă, prin frunză-o aripă. Și mă gândesc departe, la tine, la copii, La moartea tuturora ce vine când nu știi, La viața care curge, cu murmure de apă...

Elisabeth das musical Plzeň production review

Date: April 28th 2023

Cast: Michaela Štiková-Gemrotová (Elisabeth), Pavel Režný (Smrt/Death), Martin Holec (Lucheni), Jozef Hruškoci (Franz Joseph), Renáta Podlipská (Archduchess Sophie), Pavel Klimenda (Rudolf), Tadeáš Prokop (little Rudolf), Jan Ježek (Max), Stanislava Topinková-Fořtová (Ludovika/Frau Wolf)

Review and thoughts below the page break:

• We don't start with a hanged Lucheni puppet, the entire time it's actually the actor, who's hanging off of the noose

• And he stays that way for most of the Prolog

• Death lurks in the background for a moment during Alle tanzen mit dem Tod before Lucheni notices him

• And Death cuts Lucheni down from his noose

• During Death's verse, we get to see how Death works in this production's world: he kills on merely touch, which is demonstrated by the dead flying at him with outstretched arms and he just gets rid of them

• Death does give Lucheni a dirty look after "she loved Heinrich Heine"

• Little Sisi comes in in a short skirt and bloomers and during the second verse of Wie Du, her governess comes in and to Sisi's displeasure puts a long skirt onto her

• We also get a glimpse of Helene in Wie Du (she is very blonde in this version) and that she and Sisi at this point have a good relationship

• Everyone in Schön euch alles zu sehen gets a tea cup with saucer and a spoon and they do a collective spoon drop when Ludovika announces Helene is to be empress

• We get a shadow play of Sisi balancing on a tightrope with an umbrella

• After she falls, they carry her out onto a sofa and everyone groups around her, only for her to come out from the wings, so KKOG is done with the context of Sisi's soul already separated from her body and her literally being a touch away from dying

• And she does get really close, but at the last moment, Death pulls away

• As she sings "Ich erkenn dich schwartzer Prinz", Sisi goes towards Death with outstretched arms ready for a hug and Death just gets this mini panic as he backs up

• I don't like KKOG as a song, but the mutual fascination Pavel and Michaela showed here was *chef's kiss*

• During Jedem gibt er das seine, Franz and Sophie are almost shrouded behind the austrian flag colored curtains, separated from everyone around them

• And once Franz rises from his table, he moves strictly in straight lines and 90° angles

• Also, the entire show, Lucheni watches what is happening onstage from the side, sitting huddled up next to one of the set pieces, so the Lucheni actor has very little break time

• And since we're here, Martin Holec as Lucheni is so wonderful. He is a sarcastic asshole, but an extremely sympathetic one with an underlying remorseful side to him. Like, you can't help but laugh and nod along with him

• And he gets some alternate costumes for So wie man plant und denkt: a coat, tophat and fishing rod for verse 1 and an apron for verse 2

• And he hands out tea for everyone during the second verse

• Franz and Sisi see one another before the family meeting and Franz just keeps on looking at her from the moment they meet

• Sophie: "What, her?" Franz, while holding onto Sisi's hand as he was instructed to do and completely visibly in love with her, with the proudest look plastered onto his face: "Yes..."

• Nichts ist schwer has Sisi and Franz act shy at first and they slowly warm up to one another, coming closer to eachother

• Sisi being extremely shy once she is put into her wedding dress

• Death observes the wedding from the side and once Sisi says yes, you can hear the sound of a bird taking flight and Death says yes back to her three times

• Sie passt nicht has Sisi and Franz taking audience with the nobles after the wedding and Sisi is trying to be nice and friendly to them but they progressively just start behaving more rudely and dismissively towards her and she just progressively wilts on spirit until Franz takes her to dance

• Also, Helene just straight up walks by Elisabeth and ignores her when she's supposed to congratulate her

• Lucheni strutting through the dancing ballroom crowd until Death shows up

• Death strutting in flanked by all the death angels was a serve

• Der letzte Tanz had Death dance around with some of the ballroom guests, thus slowly killing them and provoking Sisi with it

• Sisi does defend Franz by hugging him in front of Death

• And Death does have some telepathic powers in this version, so that's how he dances around with Sisi

• Liebe mit Gaffern got the ensemble grouped up and obsessively staring at Sisi from the side

• Sisi has a gorgeously long wig in Eine Keiserin muss glänzen

• Sisi rising on a hydraulic platform during the last part of Ich gehör nur mir

• We get Sisi doubles in the background during Stationen eine Ehe during Lucheni's parts, showing her current life situation

• Franz just straight up leaves on Sisi when she asks him to give her back her child

• When they come to Hungary, Sisi and Franz are followed by a lady in waiting carrying the bundled up little Sophie and Death slowly stalks towards them, killing the child by gently touching her forehead

• So far, with every person Death has taken, he was rather rough with them, either throwing them, strangling them or just roughly pushing them away, even if with one finger, but little Sophie is the first time we see a more gentle side to how he takes lives

• I got literal chills during Pavel Režný's Act 1 Shatten

• As the café guests keep on talking about the rumors about Sisi and gazing into their newspapers, her very visibly sad shadow can be seen passing along the backdrop and Lucheni tries to make some of the people notice her, but they keep on ignoring him

• Lucheni jumping through the café guests and leaping off of the tables when he talks about how Rudolf was born

• The playout for Fröhliche Apokalypse got some super interesing newspaper choreo, which ended with the newspapers being left tossed all over the stage

• The kid playing little Rudolf was super adorable

• Also, he is forced into the blue austrian uniform jacket and the poor little kid says "ouch" as he is forced into it

• Sisi in her room looks like she is trapped in it and only when she stands her ground, she leaves it

• So far, Sisi was the one to draw back once Death starts approaching her/he pushes her around the stage, but once she says no to him here, she intentionally pushes him back for the first time and Death just completely shook

• Milch had the ensamble come in from the sides of the audience

• And there was plenty of very agressive banging with the milk cans onto the stage

• Schönheitspflege has a Sisi double with her back to the audience in a bath up on a pedestal and the maids are brushing her hair and taking care of her

• Once Franz comes in, they draw a changing screen closed in front of her and it kinda looks like a triptych altarpiece

• And then it opens and she is there in her Star dress

• Death appears for the Act 1 finale on ground level and Elisabeth is higher than him

• Also, some of the ensemble angrily come in at the end of Act 1 finale in their Milch costumes, but they stop in admiration when they see Elisabeth

• Lucheni gets a black glittery frockcoat and tophat for Kitsch

• And he tries to sell his kitsch souvenirs to both the hungarian ensamble and the front row

• We don't see Franz and Elisabeth during Éljen, the focus is purely on the happy hungarian populace

• Wenn ich tanzen will has Elisabeth giving one massive fictive middle finger to Death with her teasing him by dancing with whichever man she pleases in front of him, while he can't touch her

• And Death is just so upset/infuriated by not being able to dance with her and he is just left alone on stage completely upset

• Also, paralel scene to Der letzte Tanz!

• Little Rudolf trying to hide underneath his blanket was so precious

• Death is just so fascinated by Rudolf wanting him to stay and he also looks at him kinda weirded out like this is his first time interacting with a child

• Also, Death does almost touch Rudolf's head to take him, but he holds himself back

• The mad woman in the insane asylum scene being carried around on the shoulders of other of the patients

• Elisabeth in this scene is so compassionate and trying to be so patient with everyone

• Wir oder sie had Sophie and the court men huddled around a dimly lit table to discuss

• Nur kein genieren was lit very red and the way they tilted the lighting rig was so interesting

• The ensamble for this scene was very stripy with a lot of colored tulle ruffles

• Also, Stanislava Topinková Fořtová as Frau Wolf? Slayed and ate

• Lucheni doesn't have as much chemistry with Frau Wolf as in the original, but he did get to fool around with some of the ensamble ladies

• Elisabeth falls down when she's attempting to excercise on rings, but she climbs up on a vault to get to them and falls down from there, so pretty big fall

• And they included a lot of coughing from Elisabeth's side

• Death gets a nice cloak and tophat as his doctor disguise! And it suprisingly had little gaping and the way he threw it off was so effortless

• Death and Elisabeth circling around the vault during Maladie

• Elisabeth ends up on the ground and Death goes down onto the ground to her, offering her his hand for her to take

• Elisabeth doesn't throw the necklace at Death, but onto the ground

• Death does come for Sophie in this production, but we don't see him touch her, just her visibly acknowledge him and he follows her offstage

• The passage of time in Rastlose Jahre was shown by little Rudolf first coming out and Elisabeth just breezes past him and then he went offstage and the next time, Rudolf came onstage as an adult

• We get a Fanny Feifalik namedrop from Lucheni!

• At the end of Rastlose Jahre, Lucheni holds up a picture of young Elisabeth next to her, but she snatches the picture from him, agressively stares him down while tearing the picture up and then she stuffs to torn up pieces into Lucheni's mouth

• Rudolf does give himself a dose of morphine on the side of the stage during Rastlose Jahre, so I'm guessing Shatten here is partially a drug induced fever dream

• Other than that, Pavel Klimenda's Rudolf is so goddamn tragically sad, desheveled, sopping wet, traumatized and affection starved, like, you just want to give his Rudolf a hug

• At the end of Rastlose Jahre, there is a tiny moment when Sisi notices Rudolf looking like a complete mess and he cries out to her, but she looks back at him with disgust and leaves him alone, crying

• Shatten had Death come in with a whip and kind of invite Rudolf onto a ride on his carriage (I'm saying kind of because it was very minimalistic in set)

• At one point, Death touches Rudolf with his whip by lifting up his chin and Rudolf snatches the whip from him, prompting a very "what is this weird kid doing now" look from Death

• Death gives Rudolf a gun at the end of Shatten and Rudolf does consider using it, he even puts it to his head while surrounded by the death angels, but he reconsiders and hides the gun

• Strait Vater und Sohn has Rudolf more upset than angry

• Hass was lit very starkly and dimly, so for a lot of the scene, you couldn't make out their facial features

• Death does appear during Hass, not directly involving himself, but banging a drum to the rhythm of the song in the background

• During Wie Du reprise, Elisabeth writes with a quill that looks like one of Death's feathers

• I almost cried during Wenn ich dein Spiegel wär

• Rudolf comes in with some papers, looking kind of ready to discuss his worries with his mother, but as soon as he is faced with her, he falters and lets go of the papers

• The entire time Rudolf begs Elisabeth for help, he is on his knees in front of her

• And she lashes out at him before leaving him alone

• Before Mayerling, Rudolf faces the audience and says "so, you will leave me alone in this", and he starts sobbing and curls up on the ground as the death angels come in and he cries out for his mom to help him

• Mayerling at first has the angels throw Rudolf around before Death starts dancing with him

• At the end, they touch/embrace and Rudolf ends his life

• Rudolf gets surrounded by the death angels, who create his grave with their wings

• Death looks very remorseful after Rudolf dies. This production doesn't really give us feral Todolf like the original and 1st revival, but Tod here is more like a guardian to Rudolf.

• Death remorsefully observes Elisabeth as she comes to lay flowers onto Rudolf's grave

• At the end of Totenklage, both Franz and Death are offering Elisabeth an embrace and Elisabeth starts leaning towards touching Death until he pulls away

• During Totenklage, Lucheni photographs the picture of Elisabeth weeping by Rudolf's grave, that he shows in Kitsch reprise

• And he tears the picture up during the song

• Boote in der Nacht had Elisabeth smoking a cigarette

• They reused the Achilleon set from Wie Du reprise/Spiegel and she had a ton of books lying around the set, which she kept on flipping through as a distraction from Franz

• Am Deck den sinkenden Welt literally had the stage looking like a stormy sea of waves just by using the hydraulic platforms in the stage and Franz was on the only stable part of the stage

• We actually got one of the ensamble ladies set on fire during the scene

• Death screaming at Franz from up on the hanging lighting rig!!

• Death doesn't throw the file at Lucheni, but the angels pass it to him across the stage

• The ensamble in their afterlife costumes stay on scene during the assasination

• Also, Death keeps on watching the scene from the lighting rig

• Once she is stabbed, Elisabeth stumbles offstage for a while and stumbles back in only to be surrounded by the ensamble as she dies

• And suddenly, she appears on the other side of the stage in her white nightgown

• The death angels drag Lucheni down and he tries to triumphantly laugh, but he is clearly conflicted and a little remorseful

• That moment when Elisabeth and Death finally touch and embrace <3

• The Der Schleier fällt kiss here was so full of mutual respect

• After Death kisses her, Elisabeth doesn't fall down dead, but she walks downstage and looks out into the audience as the curtain falls

• Meanwhile, Death through all this looks at her with such a loving and fascinated expression

• So, in this production, Elisabeth and Death stay together in the afterlife

• For the curtain call, everyone of the main cast got one of their character's songs played as they took a bow

• With Lucheni and Death getting to sing a bit of Kitsch and Der letzte Tanz each as they took a bow

• CONCLUSION: Holy shit, everybody in this cast was splendid. I honestly can't even decide who's would be the standout performance of the evening, because everyone was amazing.

#elisabeth das musical #elisabeth plzeň #european musicals #two more times seeing this show #both on derniere day #so I know I will be sobbing at the curtain calls #because this was amazing #i have some minor nitpicks but other than that this was splendid

Heeyyyyy have some early medieval/Viking era beads!

These are from the 8-9th centuries, from the early medieval trading center at Groß Strömkendorf, Mecklenburg. These are mostly simple, common types, many of which could be found throughout most of the Viking world at that time. Some were of local/northern manufacture, including all of the polychromatic ones,. The segmented ones that look like a chain of beads connected by only a little glass were probably manufactured in the south of Europe or North Africa.

These fancier ones were either manufactured in the glass centers of the Mediterranean, or made by northern European artists who traded for manufactured components, like chips or rods of the murrine (cane with a design created longitudinally to show on the end of the cane) checkerboard and flower designs. Two such chips are at the bottom right. Bottom left shows bits of glass tesserae and glass rods used to make beads.

During the Roman empire, glass was mass-produced, especially in Egypt, and glass vessels and mosaics and beads became widely available to--well, there wasn't a middle class as we know it, really, but you get the idea. You didn't need to be rich, you just needed to be not broke. After the fall of the empire, though, glass became a much scarcer resource in most of Europe. Glass vessels were prestige items for the rich and powerful. Many if not most free women owned at least a few glass beads, but they were prized possessions.

Here we see the tiny pinched scraps of glass left over when you've used all you can of a stringer--a finely drawn out thread of glass for decorating the surface of a bead. Tiny scraps like this litter my own work bench, and I can positively feel the scorch of these ancient artists' fingertips as they use up every possible bit of the stringer. We also see bits of broken glass vessels, possibly destined to be re-melted into beads.

These images were shared by a friend from Alexander Pöche's book "Perlen, Trichtergläser, Tesserae. Spuren des Glashandels und Glashandwerks auf dem frühgeschichtlichen Handelsplatz von Groß Strömkendorf, Landkreis Nordwestmecklenburg." Woof yeah I copy-pasted that.

Here, let's close with one more lovely bunch from the same timeframe but a little further north in Paviken, Gotland, ca. 750-850:

Southern Nights

Nothin' here but fluff, a bit (a lot) of Sonny x Leland, and good vibes. maybe a tiny drop of bitter-sweetness and angst between the lines but mostly just a cute fluff quick write to bandage my heart cause I love these idiots so much. <3

| Southern Nights - Glen Campbell | ↻ ◁ II ▷ ↺

─── ☆。*。☆。･｡ﾟ *. ☽ .* . ☆。*。☆. ───

𝕋he air was filled with some sense of electricity to join the smell of campfire smoke, a light aroma of beer, and gentle laughter. A group of close friends sat gathered around an orange fire, two on a log, two in their own fold-up chairs, and one knelt by the flames, poking at it with a metal rod.

"I can't believe he kept it up for two whole years," a girl laughed, brushing her brown hair over her shoulder.

"Right? You would've thought his voice got tired after the first few months," a boy responded, chuckling along with her as he took a sip from his can of beer. Sure, they weren't quite old enough to be drinking, but there wasn't anyone else here to get them in trouble, and they certainly wouldn't tattle on each other.

"I'm gonna miss him," another girl spoke up, popping a marshmallow in her mouth. She chewed, and then shrugged, swallowing. "Hated history, but he was a good teacher. Made it way more interesting," she continued, and a few of the other kids nodded along with her.

"I bet we'll have all kinds of cool teachers in college, though," another girl added, biting the inside of her lip as she thought.

"Just sucks we won't have each other," the brown-haired boy by the fire commented, leaning back and sitting on the ground next to the only other male in the circle, who sat in his plastic and fabric camping chair.

"We'll still stay in contact," the first girl reassured, setting her can of beer in the dirt next to the log. "At least you and Connie are going to the same college." Ana, the girl speaking, motioned between the boy on the ground and an orange-haired girl on the log next to her.

"Yeah, but UT is a huge school. We may not even run into each other. And what about you guys? Have you guys been accepted into any yet?" Connie asked, looking around the group.

"I got into USC," the boy in the chair replied, and Leland glanced up at him, though he lacked a smile. After a moment of thought, he lowered his head again, taking a long sip of his beer.

"I'm waiting on something back from RIC, and the University of North Dakota," Ana replied, and Julie chuckled.

"You're gonna be freezing all the time if you go to UND," Julie reminded, shaking her head. "I couldn't imagine. I got accepted into UF, so I won't be too far, at least."

"You guys think you're gonna come back to Texas after college?" Leland asked, scooting a little closer to Sonny, the boy in the chair next to him.

"Definitely," Julie answered. Sonny and Ana exchanged a glance, and Ana spoke first.

"I don't know, actually. Maria wants to live somewhere more northern. She likes the cold. I don't really wanna be too far from her," she shrugged, and the group gave a few nods, understanding how close Ana and her sister were. Wherever Maria went, Ana was sure to follow. They'd been that way for as long as Ana could remember.

Leland gently nudged Sonny's ankle, and he looked down at him, a small smile on his face. "I'll probably come back to visit. My entire family is here, anyways." He looked back up to the rest of the group, pausing for a moment as he thought. "We should make plans to all visit for the holidays though. That way we don't risk losing contact," he suggested. Leland immediately nodded.

"I'm sure we can make that work. Probably sometime during the summers too, right?" Ana asked, and the two other girls nodded at her.

Connie popped another marshmallow in her mouth, looking around the serene campsite. "You think there's gonna be a lot of parties in college?"

Leland chuckled. "I'd hope so."

"Probably, that's what everyone says it's like. Parties and alcohol and stuff. I don't know how fun they'd really be, though. I've heard some bad stories about them," Ana murmured, reaching a hand out towards Connie and curling her fingers in.

Connie handed the girl a marshmallow, and Ana slid it onto a short metal point before she hovered the tool over the flames, watching as the treat bubbled and grew an appetizing golden crust. "I think we should all make a pact to try at least three parties. Then we can all share our stories and stuff when we hang out again," she proposed.

"I'm going to a lot more than three parties," Leland laughed, and Sonny nudged him, rolling his eyes.

"Yeah, right. Let me guess, you'll be the keg-stand master?" Sonny teased, narrowing his eyes.

"Well, obviously. Gotta impress the chicks," Leland responded, laughing still.

"You can barely handle a can of beer, there's no way," Julie cut in, shaking her head at his cockiness.

"Well, next time you visit, I guess I'll just have to prove it. Just give me some time to warm up my skills," he replied, holding up and arm and flexing his muscles. "Gonna be football n' beer. Ain't that what college is all about?"

"And getting a degree, Mr. Scholarship," Connie commented, earning a shrug from Leland as he lowered his arm. "Seriously, you know you can lose those if you don't commit to them, right?"

"What? No you can't. That wouldn't even make any sense. I already proved myself," Leland scoffed.

"They're paying thousands of dollars for you. I think that definitely makes sense. It's like being kicked out of someone's place for not cleaning up after yourself," Ana added, retracting her marshmallow and tapping it to test it's temperature.

"If you're paying rent, you should be able to do whatever you want," Leland murmured.

"Yeah, but you're not paying rent, dummy. That scholarship is. So make it count," Sonny hummed, leaning back in his chair and looking up at the sky. "I can't wait to live on my own."

"Me too," the rest of the group chimed in simultaneously, giggling at their harmony. Julie yawned, stretching her arms up.

"I'm exhausted. Isn't it about time for bed?" She asked, and the two other girls nodded.

"Speak for yourselves. I've got plenty of energy." Leland shook his head, finishing off his beer as he tossed his head back to get the last drop.

"Well, I'm going to bed. Babes, y'all with me?" Julie asked, standing up out of her chair, and Connie rose as well. Ana pulled her marshmallow off of the stick and popped it into her mouth, nodding and standing as well.

"Since you're so energetic, you can put the fire out," Ana teased.

"Oh, how generous," Leland groaned, pulling himself to his feet.

"Sonny? You comin'?" Connie asked, tilting her head at him.

"Nah, I'm good for a little while longer. Might as well stay out here and keep Leland company. Don't want him getting scared," Sonny yawned, shrugging.

"Or even worse, lonely," Julie teased, winking at Sonny as the girls turned around and retreated back to their tents. Sonny blinked, pretending that he didn't catch on to the wink, and he leaned forward onto his knees, watching as Leland analyzed the fire.

Once they were alone, Leland stood, looking over at a long lake down the hill. They'd picked a fantastic spot to set up camp, and this was their final night of their six-day camping trip. It had been just as fun as the past six years that he'd known the group, filled with laughter and pranks and stupid teenager decisions.

But the end of the camping trip was the end of those six years, too. They all knew it. They were moving on, going to college, going to be adults in an adult world doing adult things. They weren't dumb kids just doing dumb kid things anymore. They'd have responsibilities, and families, and bills.

"Wanna go sit on the dock?" Sonny asked, and Leland looked back at him.

"Sure," he replied. Sonny stood, glancing over at the tent that the girls were in before heading down the small hill with Leland. They walked out on a thin but long wooden dock over the lake, and Sonny stepped out of his shoes as he took a seat, his feet dipping into the cool water beneath.

Leland did the same, sitting next to Sonny. After two minutes of nothing but the sound of crickets and gentle water movements, Leland scooted closer to Sonny, their fingers silently intertwining. The brunette leaned his head on Sonny's shoulder, and he received a gentle squeeze of his hand.

Leland didn't need to say anything. Neither of them did. They just watched the water, watched the reflections of fireflies, watched the breeze ruffle the grass on the river bank.

After a few more minutes, Leland finally decided he wanted to say something. "You'll visit?"

"I will," Sonny reassured, his chin resting against the head on his shoulder.

"I don't know what I'm gonna do," Leland whispered.

Sonny let out a quiet sigh, wrapping an arm around his shoulder, gently rubbing his upper arm in an attempt to comfort him. "Whatever happened to impressing the chicks?" Sonny chuckled softly, and Leland cracked a smile.

"How could I forget," he replied, his voice barely above a whisper.

There was silence for a little while longer, and Sonny planted a kiss on Leland's head. The action earned a small frown from Leland, and he suddenly turned, wrapping his arms around Sonny and leaning into his chest. Sonny hugged him back, closing his eyes. He could feel how tense Leland's muscles were, and Sonny quietly shushed him, which only caused him to let out a single audible whine, though his muscles did relax.

Sonny didn't say anything for a while, didn't call Leland out on the way his shoulders flinched every few seconds, or the small gasps he took in as he tried to silence his crying.

After a bit, Sonny gently pulled Leland away from his chest, one hand on his shoulder and the other cupping the right side of his jaw. Leland's eyes were a bit red, and Sonny merely watched him.

With a sniffle, Leland whispered out a weak "I love you, Williams."

Sonny smiled, bringing his thumb up and wiping the other boy's cheek free of a loose wandering tear. "I love you too, Mckinney," he said back, pulling the brunette into a tight hug once more.

..., und allein von Gitarrenlang, lebtest du die ganzen Jahre lang, auch du, als Mann...!!!

'... doch die Zeit geht nie ganz an auch uns vorbei ...!"

Weekenders 1987 mit: "(In only) !10 minutes" live im 'Aladin' (Bremen), einer Grossraumdisco.

("... bist du zurück bei mir, oder ich verkauf' den gesamten wetvollen Schmuck von dir meistbietend dem nächsten!!"* *zu Beginn des Songs, bevor er startete, war stets dabei ein kurzes Telefonat noch zu hören von zwei Personen privat geführtes, von Band!)

'Und nun kriegt ihr als nächstes die Band Alphaville zu hören von uns mit "Do you wanna be Forever young?", wie gewohnt in der Eigenversion, so wie ihr es bereits aus den letzten Jahren von uns als Band gewohnt seid, wie immer oder nahezu immer mit leichten Veränderungen beim Text, als Band hat uns das sehr bekannt gemacht, wir gelten als beliebt, anschliessend gibts dann sogar noch Sasha mit...!!'

'Wollt auch ihr so wie wir für alle Zeiten jung bleiben, zumindest innerlich, äusserlich vielleicht auch, obwohl es da schwieriger fällt, dann ruft jetzt laut alle und stimmt selber ebenfalls mit: Ja!! Auch ihr im Publikum seid dafür!!"

'Warum hab' ich ein brandneues Love-Tatoo, und du hast noch keins ...!!'

der allererste sogar Frühstücks-Kaffee, gleich früh morgens durch uns getrunken ... als Männern! (Hier stammt er aus sogar Italien!!)

der (deutsche) Heinz im extrem hartennZustand, wie er trotzdem immer noch dabei weiter nebenher an neuen Gedichten schreiben kann, so wie es den Anschein erweckt! *Heinz er hart! ('Noch 'n Gedicht von mir!!').

der Jürgen zusammen mit auch dem Markus (beide sind sie Deutsche): 'Für euch fahren Züge bald nirgendwo mehr hin!' * Gefangenentransporte mittels Zügen und in Wagons.

der Lagerinhaftierte. das Kz.

'Ein Festival der reinen Liebe ... solll deswegen von nun an auch euer Leben sein!! Wir laden Euch dazu ein!!"

'Es gibt jetzt Samba dafür - von uns! Samba Samba, falls nötig, dann auch die halbe Nacht!!!! Wirtanzen Samba mit euch, weil so ein Samba uns glücklich macht! Liebe ... Liebe ... Liebelei, morgen ist es dann vielleicht schon alles längst vorbei, und mit euch, wir tanzen Samba mit dir ...!!"

Und selbst bei Jürgen - als nur noch weiterem Deutschen - dreht sich von all dem der auch eigene Hintern immer wieder extrem schwer auch!!

'Tiere wie ihr - sind sie erstmals im Himmel dadurch noch gensuso auch angelangt!' *the Rod (/Usa).

*'Rod Stewart'

Selbst zu gelegentlichen auch Kinderverschickungen und Transporten in Lager war es vor '45 dabei auf Seite der Deutschen gekommen!

'kleiner Keks, Kekse'. der, die erst 7- oder 10-jährige Knabe oder Mädchen.

Dieser Thomas ist anders!

*Thomas Anders. Erfolgreiche Gesangduos der 90er in Deutschland.

"Schweigen Sie!!! Still!"

Hits haben, welche erzieen, und am besten gelegentliche sogar auch eigene.

Flake's podcast - ill (Krank) - edited

podcasted on 2022-06-14, not yet published in the Radio Eins archive, but currently still available via this link, thank you @hwbswd for spotting it

This is the playlist if ypu want to keep track of the songs, i notice some of the really old ones (as in German variety/canaret style) don't get mentioned, for instance at 1h04 'Autosuggestion' by Otto Reuter, which is something like "if you think it, it is true" Flake particularly likes "you think you have a million, you think you have an auto(mobile), thaf is auto-suggestion".

One little story i wanted to share (from abput 0h20), because i always think it's cute how Flake mentions Till in anecdotes and the everyday stuff they talk about really shows (imo) how close they are, i wouldn't be surprised if they phoned every day "hey, what are doing" "nothing, what are you doing" "nothing too" and then chat for an hour anyway 🍀

Anyway, the topic is ill health, disease and everything related, and at some point Flake brings up 'Hypochondria" (when you spend much time worrying you're ill, or about getting ill).

Well apparently Flake is a bit of a hypochondriac himself, so when one day on a long tour he felt the lymph glands in his neck were swollen, he started to worry he had cancer.

So he turned to Till (although as Flake says "he is not the most competent to ask) and asked "do you think, at my age, that this could be cancer?"

Till sort of non-commitical answer was: "Yeah.." 😁

So then Flake *really* started to worry, oh god, oh god, what if i have cancer, what if it's really bad..

...and then at some point he looked in the mirror and noticed the swollen bits were at specific spots, and those spots exactly matched the collar he always wore on stage and on which Till would drag him around, squeezing his neck exactly at those areas...😁

Mysterie solved 😊

Flake's other band 'Feeling B' is also played, at 1h13 with 'So viel was ich sah' and schizophrenia; many people used to think that Aljoscha (Feeling B's singer) was crazy, not because of a mental disease, but Aljoscha did have severe alcohol addiction, although Flake thinks Aljoscha himself didn't really see it as a problem (in the long term it killed him though).

And ofcourse a podcast about illness isn't complete without doctors, so fellow Berliner band 'Die Ärzte' is played twice, at 0h30 with 'Dinge von Denen'.. and at 1h45 with 'Ein Lied für jetzt' about the covid-quarantine (which sounds like a band-zoom session about Bela, Farin and Rod being bored at home 😊).

Takes on other Flake's podcasts

Schonmal drüber nachgedacht, wieviele grandiose Ansagen der die Ärzte es wohl gibt, die aber nur in deren Köpfen existiert, weil einer der anderen drei einfach angefangen hat zu spielen?😥

Und wie viele tolle Dinge Rod wohl sagen wollte, nur um dann von Farin oder Bela unterbrochen zu werden. Let him speak!

Der allererste satz den wir miteinander geschrieben haben war eine anspielung auf rod kimble. Am nächsten tag bekam ich fieber und sagte dir ab. Du besitzt einen blauen pullover. Dein badezimmer hat 2 waschenbecken, die sich gegenüberliegen und die gleichen fliesen, wie es sie in meiner ehemaligen Wohnung gab. Dein mittelfussknochen war einmal gebrochen. Deine eltern sind getrennt. Früher nach der Schule hast du dich im park hier um die ecke zum kiffen getroffen. Wenn ich aufstehe, ist die Wahrscheinlichkeit 50% dass du deine arbeit gerade niederlegst und 50% dass du sie gerade beginnst. Du trägst nie parfum, nur kontaktlinsen.

Du besitzt ein bücherregal, das komplett leer ist. Deine Schuhgröße ist 51. Die Buddenbrooks haben dich so gelangweilt, dass du zum ersten mal ein buch nicht zuende gelesen hast. Bei unserem ersten treffen ist meine schuhsohle in der mitte durchgebrochen. Du wolltest nichts von meinem avocado Pesto probieren.

Bei einem Spendenmarathon bist du auf die kommastelle genau mein Geburtsdatum gelaufen an kilometern. (24,03). Du isst am liebsten Reis ohne Sosse. Auf deinem Nachttisch steht eine rote Lampe, dein Sofa ist ebenfalls rot.

Dein Lieblingsmusiker ist Yung Lean. Das traurige Album aller Zeiten sagtest du, sei trouble will find me.

Du wolltest nichts davon hören, dass du mit pretty privilege lebst.

Du trägst lange unterhosen unter deiner jeans.

Manchmal macht dir Zähneputzen spass, weil du dich dann kurz wieder wie ein kind fühlst.

Hättest du dir einen Anstecker für deine Crocs aussuchen können, hättest du ein Anarchie Zeichen gewählt.

Du liebst schwimmen und du trinkst deinen kaffee mit kuhmilch.

Irgendwann willst du dir ein zelt auf denoberschenkel tätowieren lassen, warum weisst nur du.

Du bist so abwesend bei allem, selbst wenn es um dein leben geht, du hättest keinen einzigen dieser sätze über dich zustande gebracht und das ist das, was am meisten weh tut.
