Chloë. That's what I think. The universe is deterministic all right, just like Newton said, I mean it's trying to be, but the only thing going wrong is people fancying people who aren't supposed to be in that part of the plan. Valentine. Ah. The attraction that Newton left outl. All the way back to the apple in the garden.

-- Tom Stoppard, Arcadia

I need to know about the muppets Rosencrantz and Guilderstern are dead!!!

Okay, so, the big problem is doing a film adaptation of Rosencrantz and Guilderstern are Dead is that the fourth wall breaks simply work better on stage than they do on film. Much of the play happens on what we would consider “off stage” with Rosencrantz and Guilderstern filling up time waiting for their cue.

Now don’t get me wrong, I’ve got a soft spot for the film adaptation, but it’s clear that Tom Stoppard is a better writer than he is film director. Everything is staged rather stiffly and there is a neglect of certain film language he could be utilizing to replicate the meta aspects of the stage production. Now what company of players have made jumping rope with the fourth wall an art form? Enter, The Muppets.

Now the big thing that gonna make this work is treat it as if the Muppets are doing their own version of Hamlet and cast accordingly. Miss Piggy as Gertrude, Fozzie is Polonius, big celebrity as Hamlet and most importantly Gonzo as Rosencrantz and Rizzo and Guilderstern.

Have them clearly on set and shot exactly how like it would shot in the play for their scenes (including Muppet appropriate jokes), but when they’re “off screen” switch to an almost candid camera and have them switch almost entirely to Stoppard’s words with minimal to no Muppet gags to emphasize that this is them when the cameras aren’t rolling.

And here’s the big kicker, cast Frank Oz as The Player and the rest of the Tragedians as the actual puppeteers. Full faces, everything.

Are you starting to see it? All of these actors playing roles within roles, stuck in a loop and trying to find some meaning in all of it. Examining the Muppets themselves as both the characters they are and the people we so often think of them as truly being.

And, most important of all, Gonzo the Great performing the “In a Box” speech.

TLDR: The Muppets are the only troop I trust to make an interesting and loyal Rosencrantz and Guilderstern Are Dead adaptation.

- I want to go home. Which way did we come in? I've lost my sense of direction.

- The only beginning is birth and the only end is death - if you can't count on that, what can you count on?

(lost boys came straight out of my heart.

btw i like this early new england gravestone rubbings i added on this piece, even though it’s not really fits in time period, but who th cares, it matches the vibe, so…)

May I propose: David Tennant and Michael Sheen in Rosencranz and Guildenstern are Dead

Their patter would be amazing and also Michael Sheen would find some way to make it gay

#i just want them in a play together tbh #straight up hate crime they have to be cast with their friends to work together smdh #by virtue of being next to each other it would be Very Gay which has absolutely nothing to do with the show but would be hilarious #david’s already done hamlet c’mon man #rosencrantz and guildenstern are dead #tom stoppard #david tennant #michael sheen #still stand by the la cage a folles casting as well #good omens #bbc staged #staged #aziraphale #crowley #ineffable husbands #amazon won’t renew and i will be mortally sad #a radio play could be dank tho #gay #fuckin love that play btfo’s waiting for godot 10000%
