HOLD MY BLOOMERS, THIS IS NEW!!! ROMEO AND JULIET? (Pardon JULIET AND ROMEO?) MUSICAL? Some powerhouses actors are there too? Well, mark me up with a rapier, I'll be watching this for sure!!!
^Tybalt after he takes the forever brownie de weed or something like that
★I think Merc and Jules would be pretty good friends if they ever met★
more specifically dolls
more specifically romeo and juliet dolls.
this is the whole gang :)
so thats mercutio
and benvolio
say hi to juliet
tybalt, tybalt!
last but not least, romeo
character designs vaguely from the 1968 movie because its my favorite, but i also took some inspo from retj (i wanted tybalt's hair to look sorta like tom ross' in the 2010 revival but also szabo p szilveszter because i love him too)
my mom and i 3d printed minecraft swords for mercutio and tybalt. i think that might be my favorite part.
benvolio and mercutio also have pride scarves because i said so (and because their necks wont stay up otherwise)
so yeah. i thought i'd share with the class.
When you like the same guy but it’s cool
My hot take of the day is that a loooot of the “twists” people add to performances of Romeo and Juliet are actually just Troilus and Cressida.
“I’m staging R+J but the central conflict has actual political implications, it’s not just a pointless feud” That’s Troilus and Cressida.
“R+J but they’re both adults” so, Troilus and Cressida.
“We’re adding a queer romance to R+J” like the one in Troilus and Cressida?
“R+J, but with a bigger ensemble cast” Troilus and C-
Uh lil collage thing/aesthetic moodboard I made, a few months ago, of Mercutio when I got cast as him-
Which reminds me I have to yet design/make what terot cards he will have on stage,,, I should get on that
And I need to ask Paris‘ actor where the heck he wants to get 4 siegelringe from qwq for the prince, paris, mercutio and valentine
ok so I was doing some pose studies and it went pretty well so have modern au mercutio or smth
I can draw legs again 🎉
I physically cant take bencutio angst seriously atm so have this instead
hamlet but claudius takes off his suit jacket after the play to reveal this while he's praying
