  1. OH that’s really cool. Man, I guess I need to reread Stormlight. Again. Even though I reread it before WaT…
  2. I’ll be with you in a couple weeks. You were in…twelve angry jurors, right? Something like that?
  3. Wait a sec what is a The Broken One and why is it better than being a shard?
  4. Opening night is tomorrow!

    this show is a miracle.

    it is breathtaking.

    I’ve heard the songs hundreds of times and I’m onstage most of the show. I’m tired, stressed, and moving more like a machine than a person. But every night, I am still awed by this story we are telling and the way we are telling it.

    These are the stories I live for.

    These are the moments I fight for.

    This is what it is to be human, and not a cog in a broken system.

    I want to write stories that can do what Hadestown does to me.

    Creation is freedom.

    Heheheheh and I’m obsessed with the scene I’m writing right now, I can’t wait for you guys to see it

      I KNOW ITS SO SAD

      I get the concept and it’s still such a sweet ending, and it keeps the momentum really well, I’m actually really happy with it now but at first I was furious, it’s a beautiful song and a promise of change.

  5. Okay, got us a scene. @Spark of Hope This is that same world place um thing, but a year or two earlier. Sorry, no editing or italics. Maybe one single italic.
  6. that’s terrible. I wouldn’t survive. it’s so cool though, I get Tuacahn, Hale, Shakespeare festive, and the Eccles. I am surrounded by theatre. I’ll have another scene later or tomorrow, depends how tonight goes. Right now, it’s looking like I’ll be up for a while. ”I have to be perfect or else I’ll never be free” has become “I will never be free again.” Where did I go wrong?
  7. I KNOW Oh I’m sure they do, tickets are usually $70-$80 and that theatre holds 960 people. Almost every performance sells out (and they run each show for a few months, sometimes two at a time because they have a second theatre). I’m seeing Finding Neverland there in May and The Play That Goes Wrong at one of the other locations in July. hehe it’s also cool because my choreographer and a lady in my ward perform there…the lady in my ward was Fantine in Les Mis a few years back.
  8. Happy birthday, shortie 😘

      thank you eddie!!! 😘

  9. It’s so cool I also got a backstage tour of it It cost $80 million to build, not to mention what they spend on each show. They have an insane fly system, and the theatre is in the round. It’s like nothing I’ve see anywhere else. this is their stage (set up for Prince of Egypt, and with a ghost light because thespians are superstitious), what it looks like standing on the stage and looking up, and one of the fly machine things. um sorry I can stop
  10. The Eddie in question is cackling under the bridge like a very tall gremlin and preparing to consume the sandwich.
  11. to their bedroom. Upstairs. With
  12. As Vyz spins, I drop from the ceiling, snatch the sandwich, and return to my lair, under a bridge.
  13. I’ve seen…so many it helps that we have one of the most technologically advanced theatres in the world 40 minutes from my house and I’ve seen 11 shows there and a bunch at their other location also broadway and Broadway tours ummm I’m not obsessed what are you talking about shhhhh
  14. Hadestown is, at least in my mind, one of the greatest musicals there is. It’s too new to see how everyone else will feel, but I think it’s up there with Les Mis and all the classics. Thanks! Yeah, I was a little on the vague side but I’ll try to clarify in any future things and edits. Heehee I started another scene last night :))
  15. Put a scene on my writing thread, would love thoughts :)

    how…how has everyone been? I’ve missed a bunch here and I’ll miss a bunch more. That’s all right, though.

      I would appreciate less hectic

      but I might try to graduate with my associates degree and also get a degree from a technical college next year so I can get a good job during actual college cause i’m just a girl and why not

       ummm may is pretty chill!!

  16. Here’s a scene. I know what comes next in the story, but who can say if I’ll ever write it. I like the stories that give you bones and let you imagine flesh. Small Steps: Sorry, I didn’t go through and add italics. Hopefully it still makes sense.
  17. YES HADESTOWNNNN i’m so obsessed with us, if we get a video I’ll try and share it
  18. Woah, happy birthday Hope!! You’re a light. A literal spark. I love the fires you start 😈

      It’s just making fun of people for trying to one up each other :P

  19. Unfortunately I have not, but I have been shoving a lot of clothes into a fire place (our costumes are supposed to be dirty and we happen to have a wood burning fire place). lol I have been every possible emotion it is possible to feel, probably most of them in the last 24 hours. It’s really something, this whole being alive thing.

      When I was planning the torture scene

      i realized I needed two brothers and a sister, not one sister, one brother, and a love interest.

  23. “Where did I fail? Am I too articulate? Should I have limited my words, scaled down my imagination to your mind. I can't. I would if I could because I want to reach you, But I can't. You're all out of reach.“

    The Wild One, Cagebirds

    This has been a brief summary of my day.

    Additionally: (same character, same show)

    “Listen to me! All of you! You could be free. All of you! Must I be caged because you lack willpower? 

    I come hurtling in, and within minutes turn your comfortable, satisfied, non-communicating, slave society upside down. I tear down the paper screens you built so carefully. I blow great gusts through the hot-house air. I shatter your fragile Sunday quiet. No, I didn't. I only tried. I didn't succeed. I couldn't succeed, because you're not alive. You can't be alive, because if you were, you'd be charging at that door with me. This very minute. All shoulders together. Boom! Thud! Pow! Crash! But there you sit. I haven't the right to stir the dust. I'm the Wild One who doesn't belong. Ignore her. You have to ignore her, because if you didn't you'd either have to break out or break down. I'm sorry. No, I'm not, but it's an accepted figure of speech. I'm sorry, but if you don't like me, you'll have to do the other thing. I'm sorry, but I'm the Wild One, and the cage hasn't been built that can hold me.”

    Someday, I will make them hear me. Someday, I will have the credibility that when I tell them I am proud it will matter. Someday, I will speak and they will listen. Someday, this apathetic, burned out, veiled world will break free, and I’ll be there to meet them.

    To the Articulate: I hear you.

    To the Blurred: You will hear me.

    To the Enslaved: We will be free.
