To my Hadestown buddies:
SpoilerMovie: yea or nay?
When Orpheus turns: "It's you/It's me" or "You're early/I missed you"?
-
Nay, hadestown needs to be experienced live, it was written that way and it’s the kind of performance that shouldn’t be seen recorded.
No so those were the original lyrics (which you probably already know lol) and I think it’s you/it’s me is better musically and just slaps but you’re early/I missed you brings in the most epic thoughts about hades and persophone
-
yea because i need to be able to watch it in the comfort of my house
i mean they’re making a pro-shot so i’ll be set :3
and i prefer “it’s you/it’s me” just cuz i think it flows better and the “you’re early/i missed you” is just such a classic hades/persephone moment that i think it would take away from literally the most important/impactful moment in the entire musical by bringing the attention back to hades and persephone
like i LOVE the full-circle moment of the “you’re early/i missed you” idea that Anaïs had at first, but like the scene needed to be its own thing cuz it’s
yk it’s THE MOMENT

but what about we broke people who can't afford to go see it
I think that it could be really cool, to kind of illustrate the more abstract stuff. Not necessarily de-abstractify too much, but I just think that if you had a good creative team, they could do an amazing job taking the lyrics and the vibe and the whole awesomeness of the show and making some gorgeous settings and visuals. I just love the whole vibe of the show and I think it could stand some adaptation into a movie. Of course I am excited for the pro shot though
Well also my school did it with the You're early/I missed you and it blew my mind and broke my heart and I really really loved it, so there's that. I do like the brevity and concision of It's you/It's me though
