Everyone’s like “Hanschen would be a stoner!!!” And “Melchior would be a stoner!!” No, it’s Otto and Thea. Thank you for coming to my Ted talk.

I made a slight edit; here's the official version. Friends who might not know - this is a short film I adapted from my full-length screenplay of Spring Awakening (I also played Wendla in the scene). Enjoy! :)

Winx Musical Casting -The Winx and the Trix
So, yknow how there's those extremely underrated winx stage musicals in the early 2000s in Italy and The Netherlands? What if we brought a production over to broadway? WELL, i've combined my winx fan braincell and my theatre kid braincell and created a casting. HERE YA GO HERES THE GORLS! (the boys will come later)
Bloom: Mallory Maedke
Tumblr media
Mallory's mostly well known for being an alternate and the dance captain for the North American premiere (Chicago, Edmonton, Cambridge, and St. Paul) and Broadway production of Six the Musical. She has such an amazing voice that I feel like she could kill whatever material is in the show, both acting and singing material. Her dancing? Amazing. She was the dance captain for a reason.
Example:
youtube
Stella: Stephanie Styles
Tumblr media
Stephanie's credits include: Katherine in the national tour of Newsies and Lois Lane/Bianca in the 2019 Broadway revival of Kiss Me, Kate, and Autumn on Zoey's Extrodinary Playlist. Her character has been described as having an "adorable flower child meets young Kristin Chenoweth vibe" and if that doesn't describe Stella perfectly? In everything I've seen her in, she just radiates stella energy.
Example:
youtube
Flora: Krystina Alabado
Tumblr media
Krystina's credits include: Ensemble/Understudy The Extraordinary Girl and Whatsername in American Idiot, Vanden in American Psycho, Gretchen Wieners in Mean Girls, Dot in Pasadena Playhouse's Sunday in the Park With George, Colombina in Hartford Stage's Kiss My Aztec. I've seen some videos of her and I feel like she radiates Flora energy.
Example:
youtube
Tecna: Caitlin Kinnunen
Tumblr media
Caitlin's credits include Thea in Spring Awakening, Carolyn in The Bridges of Madison County and Emma Nolan in The Prom, which she was NOMINATED FOR A TONY FOR! She's such an amazing triple threat so, I think she could definately step into the wings of our favorite fairy of technology.
Example:
youtube
Aisha: Lorna Courtney
Tumblr media
Lorna's credits include Understudying Zoe Murphy and Alana Beck in Dear Evan Hansen, Rosalia/Understudy Maria in the short lived 2020 revivial of West Side Story and Juliet in &Juliet, which she's in currently AND GOT A TONY NOMINATION FOR! . I've seen her in &Juliet and she's SO good. Her voice? Spectacular? Dancing? On top of it? Acting? A+.
Example:
youtube
Musa: Andrea Macasaet
Tumblr media
Andrea's mostly well known for originating the role of Anne Boleyn in the North American Premiere (Chicago, Edmonton, Cambridge, and St. Paul) and Broadway production of Six the Musical, she's most recently in Stratford Festival's production of Rent as Mimi. I've seen her as Boleyn and she is FIERCE! She's also a short queen which definitely reenforces the short!Musa headcanon lets goooo
Example:
youtube
Icy: Renee Rapp
Tumblr media
Renee's credits include: Regina George in Mean Girls. She's a Jimmy award winner and is currently releasing music. From what I've seen of her, she's SO talented. Her voice is KILLER. *it also reenforces the Belter!Icy pipeline so hell yeah* She's played a role similar to this so I think she could do a really good job as icy.
Example:
youtube
Darcy: Isabelle McCalla
Tumblr media
Isabella's credits include: Jasmine in Aladdin, Megara in Papermill Playhouse's production of Hercules (pictured) , and originating the role of Alyssa Greene in the Broadway production of The Prom. I've seen her in Hercules and she killled it. Her "I Won't Say I'm in Love' is spectacular and she really gave it her all with this material.
Example:
youtube
Stormy: Tiffany Mann
Tumblr media
Out of the videos I've seen of her, she has an amazing voice and I really think she has the proper energy from our favorite weather witch. Tiffany's credits include: Ensemble/Understudy Becky and Nurse Norma in Waitress and Jenna Rolan in the Broadway production of Be More Chill (pictured)

So i saw God’s show, Spring Awakening, and it was the best version I’ve seen live and I cried seven times. Here are my thoughts :)
The set was really cool, it had this tree with christmas lights upstage on the wall. 
wendla came on wearing sheet and wore same sheet later when she entered the hayloft scene
her fairy queen dress was so cute!!!
love all the costumes were fucking awesome
wendla had a maturity that I’ve never seen her played with
the adults were all played by different actors, some of which were teen ensemble in the other scenes
mama reprise was BANGIN
so stompy and angry i knew we were going to have a good time
melchior was played the most sympathetic ive seen
even though he was intellectually smart, emotionally he was in the same place as everyone else and it worked
moritz was deaf and had an actor playing his voice!!
fun fact, i took an acting class where i did a scene with the actor who played moritz’s voice
I had to seduce them in the scene and it was over zoom it was a nightmare
they had moritz’s voice say litota multum lines 
idk why they didn’t do what dwsa did for that scene
they didnt pull out mics to sing which i liked
melchior ran stage right all the sudden during all that’s known and i was like go white boy go!!!
bol was awesome but could have been like 2x explosive
an ensemble guy sang “it’s like just kiss some ass man”??
hanschen’s so extra he fuckin put his foot up on a chair to talk to ernst to say the achillies and patrolcus line
every time frauline knuppledick and herr knockenbruch exited they did this synchronized step turn to leave and it was weirdly funny
the girls laid on their stomachs and kicked their legs during my junk chorus!!!
hanschen masturbated facing away from audience
he was so dramatic and hilarious it was a good time
they gave otto’s my junk solo and thea’s second my junk solo to ensemble girls, one of which was my friend and she killed it
it was a good choice
ernst signed part of his touch me solo
melchior and voice of moritz touched moritz during ernst’s solo it was very beautiful and gay
melchior finger spelled genitalia for moritz
my friend in teen ensemble’s character had a gf in teen ensemble and they were very gay during touch me
wendla was really gay with an ensemble girl during touch me
and there was cool choreography!! bol, my junk, touch me, even mirror blue night and guilty ones had awesome choreography without being too distracting 
obc eat your heart out
melchior was just as confused as wendla in woyb
she had this great balance of being curious and then hesitating with him 
she was also very matter-of-fact about having to be home by five it was cute
wendla and melchior didn’t touch each others hands but like put them up close to each other and moved them 
martha👀👀👀
she was angry and recognizes that she’s being abused and i loved it
she nodded after anna’s line
i’ve never seen martha played like that and it was refreshing
they signed beauty during tdikw
for ilse’s verse, martha was sitting behind her on the bed and ilse layed back on her and two ensemble girls put a sheet over her lap
they had a set peice that martha and ilse knelt on for part of tdikw and the girls spun it like in dwsa
they wrapped sheets kind pf restraint-like around martha and ilse toward the end of it
martha and ilse held hands and sang last part of tdikw to each other
all the boys except hanschen hugged moritz at the end of the i passed scene!!!
moritz’s dad signed “what” “failed” and “thank god my father never lived to see this day” to moritz and it BROKE ME
moritz screamed after he left and my heart shattered
the guys were bopping in a rock way with moritz at the end of attwn
shout out to whoever’s android ringtone went off when moritz pulled the gun out
melchior was crying at the beginning of the hayloft scene
i thought wow this is a young boy who doesn’t understand what he’s feeling
the actor really got it
wendla was trying to cheer him up with her line about running through the rain
and he took it as an invitation!!!! bitch!!!
wendla was confused and hesitant during i believe, it was clear that she didn’t understand what was happening
they held up a sheet in front of wendla and melchior while the father was speaking during guilty ones but i could still see them bro
wendla had no idea what had just happened and it was heartbreaking
melchior looked regretful but he still pulled her in and kissed her at the end of the song
she didn’t really kiss back
ilse signed some of her dialogue and part of blue wind to moritz
she was the only person who signed to him👀
she was wearing the big white shirt but just for dds 
in the next scene at the funeral she was back in her dress from earlier in the show
when moritz signed laundry line he mimed hanging himself from it
moritz yelled for ilse after she left like in dwsa and it was heartbreaking
so was ilse’s line about lying on some trash heap
her voice was incredible
moritz’s voice walked off and moritz looked for him before killing himself😭
left behind BROKE ME
frau gabor and frau bergmann entered with their respective children
martha cut herr stiefel this look when she dropped her flower on the casket 
she looked angry the whole number
my friend came in with her gf and they sat at the front of the stage and held each other
MORITZ’S VOICE WAS AT THE FUNERAL
they glared at herr stiefel and slammed their flower down😭
herr stiefel collapsed onto the casket i died
martha’s mascara was running😭
totally fucked was LIT
melchior had awesome energy
they did that weird choreo jonathan groff did in obc but it worked
melchior yelled YEEEEEES it was so funny
vineyard scene WAS THE BEST IVE SEEN IRL
it was a funny scene because hanschen was so extra, not because two boys were making out
you could see he really cared about ernst
ernst was so horny u could tell he was waiting for hanschen to make a move
they didn’t actually kiss, they did the hand over the mouth thing
both of them went in for that second kiss it was adorable
“and so you should” was not manipulative or creepy at all
hanschen and ernst did some of wendla and melchior’s choreo from woyb AND THEY INTERLACED THEIR FINGERS INSTEAD OF NOT TOUCHING
the end of the song was about them and it wasn’t just ilse delivering the letter
h and e hugged and ran off stage holding hands😭
you could see a shift when wendla realized what she did that got her pregnant and it broke my heart
she had the sheet from earlier wrapped around her during whispering and gathered it up and held it in front of her stomach at the very end of the song
i still find the reformatory scene weird and unnecessary
again, the actor who played melchior really understood the character and the show as a whole
he gave himself a minute to realize what he’d done when he saw wendla’s grave before breaking down
this director really got this show
wendla and moritz were physically restraining melchior from cutting himself in part of those youve known
he would not let go of their hands it was heartbreaking
ilse signed and sang the beginning of purple summer
then moritz showed up and signed with her while they looked at each other and they hugged at the end of the verse😭
ernst (who i’m kind of friends with) and vo moritz and were crying at this point and i was also crying but that made me cry harder
i talked to the actor who played moritz in my very broken asl after the show
it was cringe but he seemed to appreciate it (i said “wow!! you wow!! my name r-h-i-a-n-n-o-n. my asl bad. you wow!!”😭)
great show i cried 7 times and am crushing on like 4 different cast members

From Evelyn Hoskins’ Insta (OG London cast of Spring Awakening as Thea, now co-producing the anniversary concert) — she’s announced the cast list for the concert (and apparently Jamie Muscato, one of the swings in the 2009 production, will be playing Melchior):

Spring Awakening Fandom Tag
By (@winter-alseepening)
I saw @dwsavideos and @feelssogoodinmyarms do this and was inspired :)
1. how were you introduced to the show?
I always knew it existed, but one day on a long car drive I just decided to sit down and listen to it, and then everything clicked.
2. Seen a production live?
No, sadly. The most recent performance in my area was a high school that production last year -- it was a big deal but I could not make it.
3. Dream role/character you relate to most
I would literally kill to play Ilse! Unfortunately most of her songs are right over my first passaggio rip
For character I relate to the most? Some weird combination of Wendla’s naïveté and Melchior’s pretentious bitchiness.
4. Favorite male character
Hanschen — there’s something so satisfying when you see him done right on stage (even though it’s rare).
5. Favorite female character
Ilse, but I feel like Anna and Thea are under appreciated.
6. Deaf West Revival or Original Broadway Cast?
OBC laid the groundwork, obviously, but DWSA all the way! I’m actually also partial to the Almeida production (unpopular opinion, I know) because the technical and design elements just give it its own hauntingly beautiful identity that is totally unique
7. Favorite song
Touch Me but also Don’t Do Sadness/Blue Wind but also Clouds Will Drift Away which was sadly cut
8. Least favorite song
Maybe this is a cop-out, but I always skip There Once Was A Pirate.
9. Favorite quote/line
Listening/To the souls in the fool's night/ Fumbling mutely with their rude hands/ And there's heartache without end
10. Favorite TV performance
Definitely Touch Me on Seth Meyers
11. Favorite cast member(s)
Andy Mientus, Krysta Rodriguez, Krystina Alabado, Jonathan Groff (and Michael Arden basically counts, right…?)
12. Favorite cast member moment
Daniel Durant and Alex Boniello dramatically signing along songs backstage (especially that one video where Daniel attempts guitar and Alex attempts the signs and it’s such a mess)
but basically anything in this video
13. Do you write fan fiction?
Okay exposing myself but I wrote (am writing?) Still Together When It Ends which was a fake dating au that’s gotten a little out of hand
14. Do you make fan art?
Not really, but I like to draw if I have free time (which is rare right now)
15. Do you cosplay?
No, but if I come across some nice vintage dresses I will buy them
16. Don’t do Sadness or Blue Wind?
I can’t pick!! The magic of the songs is really how they layer seamlessly together.
17. Word of your body or the Reprise?
Reprise if DWSA, WOYB if any other version though
18. Touch Me or My Junk?
Touch Me, easy! Although moment of appreciation for the My Junk snowstorm video
19. Explain the song of purple summer
It’s about the passage of time, of the kids moving from one phase of their lives to another. They’re tapestries of their struggles and desires and dreams and guilt that they’ll always have, and they sing of everything they’ve known and the idealized future they hope to come. It’s a summer they might not see, but the seasons are changing anyway.
20. Explain the song of purple summer (wrong answers only)
Actually it’s just an excuse to show off all the fake flowers from Michael’s the theater department has stocked away

My Official Spring Awakening Character Ranking
Hanschen. Especially Andy Mientus's Hanschen. My bi king. He's the actual sweetest and he and Ernst are so hkhkdjsjfksjsh I love them
Ernst. He's so fucking adorable and like I said, he and Hanschen are just. Goals
Ilse. SHE. She slays so hard and Blue Wind is one of my favorite songs.
Moritz. My bby. I just want to hold him and tell him everything will be ok🥺 Plus, his songs are fucking JAMS
Anna. I love this girl. She's got such an interesting character I swear I could write a whole essay on her.
Martha. SOMEONE PROTECT THIS BBY. She just slays so hard and the Dark I Know Well is a banger.
Georg. SJDKSKSJSKDJDJDJ Maybe I just love Alex Wyse but Georg is so funny. Plus I ship him and Otto so their dynamic is really cute to me, he's such a big dork 🥺 But he's a minor character so he's lower on the list.
Wendla. I don't love or hate her, she's just kind of boring to me. I don't have a lot to say about her, but Sandra May Frank and Katie Boeck slayed (Can we get Katie Boeck's "Mama Who Bore Me" on Apple Music? Please? I love her sjsksjdjskdj)
Otto. He would be higher if he had more than 3 lines oop-😳 But he's still a cutie. Go little sailor. I have nothing bad to say about this boi.
Thea. This is where we get into the characters I REALLY dislike. Thea is- Where do I even start? She's so annoying and kind of b*tchy at times. Idk, I want to like her, Especially since she's Hanschen's sister, but I can imagine Hanschen wouldn't like her either so.
Melchior. If I were including the adults on this list I would rank them higher, Melchior is the worst of literally any character in Spring Awakening ever. He's literally evil. I hate him and I wish he died in the end. What a horribly written character.
Anyway send me asks or tell me what you would change on my list! I love Spring Awakening and would love to post about it more!

Friends, I need your help. Here’s a quick summary, in case you’re a newcomer to my blogs: I’ve adapted Frank Wedekind’s Spring Awakening (as translated by Jonathan Franzen) into a three-episode miniseries, and I plan on pitching it to production companies. In addition, I adapted and acted in three short films based on the miniseries; these films are meant to serve as tastebud teasers for what the full, finished work might look like. 
First, my friends and I made Spring Awakening - A Short Film, abridged from Act 1, Scene 3, in which Wendla (played by me), Martha, and Thea discuss their crushes.
youtube
The next film was Moritz and Ilse, an adaptation of Act 2, Scene 7, a.k.a. Moritz’s pre-suicide scene, specifically when he encounters Ilse (yours truly). 
Tumblr media
The third short film was In Order To Have A Child, adapted from Act 2, Scene 2, wherein Mrs. Bergmann gives Wendla (again, moi) her version of the facts of life. This film and Moritz and Ilse will hopefully be available on YouTube sometime soon. 
Tumblr media
Here’s where you come in: I’m trying to generate interest on TikTok, especially among my fellow theatre lovers, so I’d be extremely grateful if you’d please spread the word to like-minded souls, and give me a follow there, if you have an account — here’s the link for my profile:
https://www.tiktok.com/@izzy_rose_actress?_t=8ZvC7TrwGcM&_r=1
Love you, my dears!! 😘💕
