Last night after a performance of the thrilling new production of Cabaret we sang Happy Birthaday to the original Emcee Joel Grey who was there in the audience and celebrating his 92nd birthday. It was the kind of New York night you dream about with incredible New Yorkers everywhere you looked.(Yes that is John Kander). Won't ever forget it.

@lillimunstarr saved this and sent me the video and I haven't stopped watching it since, so of course I had to gif the fuck out of it because 🥵 seriously, mad AF clown Emcee looks divine. Thank you Lilli 💜💜💜💜

What is more tumblrman than a sexy, gender-noncomforming blank slate that breaks the fourth wall and just has SO MUCH FUN all throughout the musical? We know NOTHING about the MC, neither his background nor motives, except that he's hot, he knows it, craks jokes at the audience and is having the time of his life. Depending on production actors can really take him anywhere: from making him a victim of the genocide to come, to making him morally ambiguous, to making him a victimizer himself. He has captivated fans so much everyone adds their own headcanons and has a shipping fest. He WILL rot your brain
Audrey II is a plant who eats people (blood, really)!! She convinces Seymour to kill the dentist abusive boyfriend of his crush to feed her!! (Which, like, valid, fuck that guy). Just listen to Feed Me (Git It) you will get it
