two weeks before the 1st performance:
tech kids hanging out in the house seats, lighting and sound crew just starting to figure stuff out
cast running all the dance numbers 129493 times, crying
first pairs of jazz shoes are spotted
ensemble mumbling like everything
running the show for the first time,,,, crying bc whAT ARE OUR CUES
leads still calling out for lines occasionally and ur director getting pissed
probs stopping as yall run the show
one week before the first performance:
ensemble crying in the corner bc they’re “not loud enough”
“?????” - band
tech kids are literally at school till 1am
set is coming together!!
leads are crying
!1!1!costumes
!1!1!1!1!1!1!1!1 makeup
death
this is the time period when kids limbs or ankles start randomly breaking
someone: *coughs* “REPENT”
matinee!!:
literally everyone is sobbing backstage
quick changes killing people
inspirational speeches starting to happen
“WHERE THE HELL ARE MY JAZZ SHOES”
crew kids building their calm façade
internal screaming
lighting starts doing cool things
“dude the set looks so cool with the lights”
leads forgetting their lines simply bc of stress
“what’s that move again??”
“what’s our note again??”
places:
everyone just got done with traditions and there are probably a lot of raw emotions happening ajsjdjjdk
calm, not a sound backstage.
numbness
“im fucking serious what’s that move again?”
“what the hell is our note”
crew is getting calls over the boxes every 10 seconds
“where’s my fucking prop”
ur stage manager is probably crying
everyone is crying
band - “?????”
the show:
“aw shit i messed that up oh well tonight ill do it right”
band - “!!!!”
“i can’t cross when they’re dancing to move props can i”
literally everyone is SObbIgn after the last performance makeup who??

optimal places to listen to these musicals
otherwise known as: “but theater is meant to be experienced live!!!” is a myth invented by capitalism
Anastasia: a sleepover at your best friend’s home 
The Band’s Visit: in a silent house with the lights off and the curtains drawn
Be More Chill: in the safety of your room after an exhausting school day 
The Book of Mormon: not in public
Dear Evan Hansen: a long drive home
Falsettos: walking around a city you don’t know well; it feels mundane and surreal at the same time
Hamilton: with friends on a road trip, yelling along and tripping over the words and laughing
The Last Five Years: stuck in an elevator with a stranger
Les Misérables: anywhere with a lot of durable furniture
Little Shop of Horrors: downtown, where the folks are broke
Natasha, Pierre, and the Great Comet of 1812: in an abandoned parking lot at 2 AM with Monster Energy in the cupholder and giant floodlights in the distance. And a hamster running on a wheel in shotgun just for fun.
Newsies: on the treadmill
Next to Normal: riding the subway, absorbing each word like you’re listening to a gripping audiobook, watching the world flicker by
The Phantom of the Opera: the shower, of course, so that you can sing along
Spring Awakening: sitting in an empty playground
Tuck Everlasting: laying in the sun, the scent of grass in the air
Waitress: returning to visit a favorite place from childhood, bracing your heart for the ways it has changed

lies theatre kids tell
“I’m happy with even the smallest role, as long as I get to be part of the show!”
“I didn’t get a callback, but it’s fine, I wasn’t that invested anyway.”
“Yeah, I can do (insert special skill)!” *cut to: them frantically watching YouTube videos at 3 AM*
“I’ll finish my homework before rehearsal so I won’t have to do it tonight.”
“I’ll get ahead on studying this weekend so I don’t have to do it during the week.”
“I’m not getting sick!!!”
“I didn’t touch the prop.”
“I don’t like drama.”
“I’m off-book!”
“Tech week is going well.”
“You don’t have to come!”
“I’m not nervous.”
“I messed up once, but it’s no big deal!”
“I quit. I’m never doing theatre again.”
“I’m so glad this show is over.”
“I’m going to take some time away from theatre before doing another show.”
“Let’s hang out sometime!”

hamilton ; act i - plot explained
so this beautiful piece of art starts w everybody singing ab, you guessed it, a. ham. (alexander hamilton)
after they're done w all that, hamilton is looking for a. burr who basically tells hamilton to shut up and look pretty but ham is a lil slow on this concept. (aaron burr, sir) hamilton meets his boyf j. laurens, some french dude lafayette, + some guy who fucks horses herc mulligan. ham shows off to them ab how he doesn't shut up. (my shot) the bros all chat ab how they'll be bros forever. (the story of tonight) then we meet a few rich gals, angelica, eliza, + peggy. (the schuyler sisters)
so there's this dude sam seabury who fuckin h a t e s the american rev & ham is like 'u r super dumb & wrong.' (farmer refuted) king george iii sings a breakup song to usa. (you'll be back)
ham, burr & their bros join this army & while the army skrts from nyc, g. washington is like 'hot damn i have no friends' & ham swerves on in all like 'I AM HERE' & then they became bffs. (right hand man)
ok so those ladies from earlier, their daddy philip is throwin a rager & ham wants to get his dick wet w a schuyler kiddo. (a winter's ball) angie introduces eliza to ham & eliza is all heart eyes at him & it is so frickin cute & they get married. (helpless) BUT angie also wants to get her dick wet w alex but she's not gonna tell him bc her sis is a ray of sunshine & she wouldn't break her heart like that. (satisfied) the bro squad is gettin wasted after the wedding & burr tells ham he's fucking this sweetie theodosia who's married to a b r i t i s h officer !!! (the story of tonight reprise) ham supports burr like a good "friend" & tells burr to tell ppl ab it. but burr decides to avoid his problems & be a pussy. (wait for it)
ok so now the revolution is happening and big chillin and hamilton reeeaaaaaaaalllly wants to be put in command but washington reeeaaaaaaaalllly doesn't give a fuck and promotes this fella charles lee which was such a goof for him bc in the battle of monmouth lee literally does the exact opposite of what washington said to. so washington is all like 'hm since ur fired if only there was someone else who wanted to be in command. oh yes i know!! lafayette has been h*ckin wanting to do this!!' so lee just talks mad shit ab washington. (stay alive) so at this point alex is a lil feisty but doesn't wanna do anything his daddy george says not to. instead alex's boyf laurens duels lee & ham is laurens' 2nd while the ever loyal burr is lee's 2nd. laurens fucks up lee a lil bit & is all good w that. (ten duel commandments) washington is pissed ab all that so he kicks ham out. (meet me inside) so ham goes home and eliza is preggers!!! ham is a lil insecure that eliza will leave him n shit but she's a sweetie and reassures him. (that would be enough)
lafayette being the baguette he is gets france to help out the us. he raps super fast & makes everybody even more in love w him. he and washington realize they need our mans alex to go thru w their plan for yorktown so washington lets alex be in command!! (guns and ships) ALRIGHT so it's the night of the battle washington is talking to his son alex & tells him to not fuck up. (history has its eyes on you) the army WON after fighting for a bit bc the british surrender !!!! (yorktown) now king georgey is confused on wtf is happening. (what comes next)
a lil bit after the battle, eliza has bby philip and alex and burr also has a bby named theodosia and they sing a cute lil lullaby ab it. (dear theodosia) ready to cry kiddos ???? good. alex gets a letter saying that his boyfriend laurens was killed in a stupid fucking dumb battle. alex is really torn up about this and just doesn't stop writing shit. (tomorrow they'll be more of us) now we're getting into a big banger. alex and aaron are both going back to nyc cause they wanna be lawyers. burr is jealous of alex as all hell and alex gets chosen for the constitutional convention !!!! ok so alex and these guys john jay and james madison got together to write the federalist papers. they were gonna write 25 essays. john jay got sick after writing five. james madison wrote 29. hamilton wrote the other FIFTY-ONE!! good old angelica says that she's getting married to this dude she doesn't rlly like & she's moving to london. president washington gets alex to be treasury secretary but eliza is not a fan of that. (non-stop) END OF ACT ONE FELLAS!!!
