April Fools Day Post

Since Starkid is Comedy Musicals For AprilFools Day I’m Showing the Teen Lords in Black Again because damn they look amazing and Properly Thematic. also dancing Clover Because Undertale Yellow is Fun.

listening to Starkid

last night I watched the trail to Oregon,then I’m watching the hatchetfield series,then finally Twisted! It’s amazing so far.(I’m on The Guy who didn't like musicals(I’m in the middle of it but my dad has something I have to do)) Also the Sniggles Throughout all of hatchetfield are cool.

Update: I’m on Black Friday and I love the restless sleep of the Dead in Drowsy Town. Also I watched Cinderella’s castle and it’s amazing.

update 2:I’m on Nerdy Prudes must die and Watched Workin Boys

So... am I crazy?

I recently watched The Guy Who Didn't Like Musicals, Black Friday, and Nerdy Prudes Must Die.

I am now thinking about the implications.

Darren Criss NYC ticket for sale

I have one ticket to the Darren Criss NYC Roseland Ballroom concert that I'm selling for face value. Let me know if you are interested.

Compilation of clips from STL's apocalyptour set to Charlene Kaye's amazing song, Woman Up.

Anyone else notice the similarity?

My life has just been made Darren posted a Friends quote on Joe Walker's wall.

“It’s the end of the world and you’re gonna get your drink on with a Sherly fucking Temple?”

(-Ted Spankoffski)

(When I tell you I was imagining The Guy who Didn’t like Musicals quotes for alot of the Glomas Climax)

Also I now NEED To have Floyd sing Who Will Pray For Me. I NEED IT

ALSO FOR SOME STRANGE REASON I CAN ALSO IMAGINE INCREDIBLY WELL ACE SINGING RICHARD’S PART INSTEAD OF IDIA BUT I CANT IMAGINE ACE AS RICHARD AT ALL, IDIAS JUST TOO PERFECT OF A FIT FOR RICHARD.

Also Man Down Happens in the school cafeteria, and One or two Dorms sing a different part of the whispers.

Heartstabyl: “Somethings got its hands on the Hatchet Handle…”

Octavinelle: “Swinging on the Youth its a Hatchet Scandal!”

Savanaclaw: “Careful or your folks might end up on a Cannibals Plate!”

All: “It ain’t great!”

Ignihyde/Pomfieore : “You’re better on the run than you are hiding….”

Scarabia/Diasomnia: “Suddenly this quiet town’s exciting….”

(Not stating which but I’m been writing a fic and I’ve referenced the guy who hated musicals twice and only one person got the reference so far lol)

Hello Twisted Wonderland community. I have no clue if any of you enjoy Starkid, but this is for the small group of you who do, I humbly present this:

Twisted Wonderland Characters as Hatchetfield Characters

This is for the three main musicals (The Guy Who Didn't Like Musicals, Black Friday, Nerdy Prudes Must Die). I thought about doing Nightmare Time as well, but there's so many extra characters that I really didn't wanna bother lol. I'm gonna do this like they do it for the musicals, so some of the characters will have multiple roles. However, I might do some recasting depending on the musical, so they might not be consistent throughout the three.

The Guy Who Didn't Like Musicals:

Paul Matthews: Idia Shroud

Bill Woodward: Trey Clover

Ted Spankoffski/Homeless Guy: Ace Trappola

Emma Perkins: Jamil Viper

Prof Hidgens: Lilia Vanrouge

Charlotte/Nora/Deb: Vil Schoenheit

Greenpeace Girl/Alice/Zoe: Cater Diamond

Sam Sweetly/Mr. Davidson/General MacNamara: Floyd Leech

Black Friday:

Tom Houston: Trey Clover

Becky Barnes: Cater Diamond

Lex Foster: Ace Trappola

Ethan Green/Chris Kringle: Deuce Spade

Hannah Foster/Tim Houston: Ortho Shroud

Uncle Wiley: Lilia Vanrouge

Wiggly/Gary Goldstein: Floyd Leech

Linda Monroe: Vil Schoenheit

Sherman Young: Idia Shroud

General MacNamara: Sebek Zigvolt

Frank Pricley: Azul Ashengrotto

President Howard Goodman: Rook Hunt

Nerdy Prudes Must Die:

Peter Spankoffski: Trey Clover

Stephanie Lauter: Cater Diamond

Richard Lipschitz/Wiggly: Idia Shroud

Ruth Flemming/Blinky: Kalim Al-Asim

Max Jagerman: Floyd Leech

Grace Chastity: Sebek Zigvolt

Karen Chastity/Miss Tessburger/Nibbly/Stacey: Lilia Vanrouge

Solomon Lauter/Pokey/Jason: Jack Howl

Mark Chastity/Officer Bailey/Tinky: Rook Hunt

Detective Shapiro/Brenda: Jamil Viper

Some of these are stretches at best, but I tried. Most of these are serious attempts at casting, but a couple are just because I thought they would be silly. And, again, shoutout to the three Twst fans who also like Starkid; this is for y'all.

Guys if i disappear from the ninjago fandom for a bit i am so sorry, ive been possessed by a musically induced alien spore <3

🎶 some of you haven’t been through your apotheosis and it shows  🎶

Very nice consumable art

As a fan of both. Yes.

I guess the guy likes musicals now

with emma version on the bottom!

This one is actually almost a year old, but I never got around to posting it anywhere. I’d definitely do some things different now (the first thing that comes to mind is resizing the text), but for the most part I’m still proud of it.

Holloweane, because I've been rewatching Nightmare Time and it reminded me how much I love them.

Redraw of this beautiful work by Jon Whitcomb ✨

My Cinderella’s Castle Fanart! I loved this show so much!! I hope to the nine good gods that they create more tales in this world, the vibes are so fun.

Wait wait wait remember that post about how Team Starkid/the Lang brothers are going to be comparable to Shakespeare 500 years from now and it was mostly played for laughs like yeah lol you’ll need a paragraph of footnotes to explain the zefron poster but like

I don’t think that’s actually far off from how Starkid’s place in theatre history might play out and here’s why. Just hear me out

Why is Shakespeare so popular today when he definitely wasn’t the only playwright from that era? When he’s not even the only playwright from that era from England that we have surviving works from?

Two main reasons:

1) Shakespeare’s work is (relatively) universally relatable. The characters do things that are so fundamentally human. They make jokes at their friends’ expense. They complain about being awkward in front of their crush. They have daddy issues. The plot lines of the plays aren’t too complicated. The dick jokes land whether you’re watching in 1611 or 2024, and they probably still will in 2637. Shakespeare’s works are timeless because he didn’t try to outsmart his audience. He wrote about things everyone could relate to rather than trying too hard to peacock his intellect in front of the nobility. This is not true of every playwright.

2) Shakespeare was really popular right around the time England started colonizing everything in sight. Copies of his work got shipped all around the world, translated into dozens of languages, performed probably thousands of times. Setting aside the moral implications of this, the important thing to note is that Shakespeare was about the most easily accessible English playwright during a time of rapid, intense globalization.

Meanwhile, Starkid:

1) Invests hard in meaningful, relatable character arcs instead of spectacle and expensive sets or costumes. Also, lowbrow, immature humor and dick jokes that make A Very Potter Sequel funny and enjoyable regardless of if you’ve ever seen any other Harry Potter media in your life.

2) Posts professional recordings of their musicals to YouTube FOR FREE, making their shows about the easiest, best quality musical theatre you can get pretty much anywhere in the world, regardless of if your area has an active theatre scene. Proshots from other companies are rare and usually not free. Bootlegs are all well and good, but even if the video quality is alright (and that’s a big if) the audio is usually garbage. Starkid has been posting the best quality free recordings they can afford since 2009, shortly after the birth of social media, another time of rapid, intense globalization.

In short, I’m not saying that theatre historians in 500 years won’t remember any our current Broadway faves, but I am saying that in my opinion, Team Starkid is probably going to be more accessible for the general public. If you’re a 26th century English teacher trying to teach your class about narrative structure in 21st century theatre, what are you going to show your students? A bootleg of Hadestown with blurry video and garbage audio? Or the professional recording of Twisted, parts of which they will probably even enjoy, because even long after no one remembers Disney’s Aladdin anymore, your class of 26th century 16-year-olds are still going to laugh at “No One Remembers Achmed.”

Divining the Future: The Black Tarot [The Guy Who Didn't Like Musicals: Reprised! Kickstarter]

Finished a piece for the TGWDLM Reprise fake Playbill Mini-Zine Collab that @riveracheron is putting together!

I saw that the Ad for Spankoffski's Heart and Sole was open and jumped on it!

I really wanted an excuse to draw college age Ted (including the early Starkid Era Joey Headband) and then I had the idea that the Spankoffski's would want their ad to include their kids. I feel like at the time, Ted would've used this as a bragging point, and Pete would be forever embarrassed. In my own headcannon, the grammar mistake of Women's Shoe originates from this Ad and is a running inside joke between the Spankoffski brothers, which is why he says it in the Beanie's scene in NPMD (in the Digital Ticket version.)

This was fun and I would totally do something silly like this again :)

10/10 stream. FUND THE KICKSTARTER!!

I want a Hatchetfield musical crowd song where Paul is present, he has lines, there’s a very clear space in the choreo that he’s meant to fill, but he just speaks his parts normally and stands perfectly still. When everyone else is dancing across the stage, Paul very calmly walks along to his next mark, turns to the audience, says his line in a deadpan voice then just stands and waits for his turn again

TW: Body Horror (lots of eyes)

The Lords in Black "dressed up" their Blorbos (:

Are there tales in those walls ? finally finished colouring my Cinderellas castle tribute piece and I'm so happy with how it turned out. This will be debuting at MCM London comic con next weekend with some other goodies

how the fucky-wucky did you even get accounts here?

Preface (please read!):

This one's pretty fucked up gang. TW for UNNATURALLY BENT/BROKEN/DISLOCATED LIMBS.

This is based on a one-off phrase by Jon Matteson in his TGWDLM watch party during Let It Out where he said "Was that bones breaking?" I'm assuming he meant bones cracking, as in the sound, but this got me thinking of an interpretation of Let It Out in which Pokotho breaks Paul's bones to make him pose and dance.

Feast or Famine

I'm a day late but happy Black Freiday Starkid!!!
