#bare: a pop opera

I can’t talk I’m too busy liking posts from 2 years ago about musicals with a fan base of about 20 people.

Hello, I’m Vee

Honestly am just a desperate theater kid who needs to interact with other theater freaks rn.

If you’re interested in any of these musicals, you should hit me up because again, I am DESPERATE (on my knees begging guys)

MY FAVORITE MUSICALS (as of late):

Some Like It Hot

Falsettos (The entire Marvin Trilogy, actually. This is and has always been my favorite — I love In Trousers and the original 1992 cast of Falsettos, but the 2016 revival have my entire heart as well obviously — huge C. Borle fan)

Grand Hotel

Next To Normal

A New Brain

25th Annual Putnam Spelling Bee

(I like any/everything by William Finn)

Spies Are Forever

Something Rotten

The Boys from Syracuse

Some honorable mentions:

Ride The Cyclone, Avenue Q, Bare: A Pop Opera, The Guy Who Didn’t Like Musicals, Annie, The Book of Mormon, School of Rock, Charlie and The Chocolate Factory, Six, 1776, Bring It On, Jekyll & Hyde, The Producers. . .

A lot more I don’t feel like listing, but my musical theater/showtunes playlist is well over 24 hours. I’m getting into Gutenberg right now and recommendations are very much welcome

That’s all, bye

it’s been years since i’ve even thought about bare: a pop opera but i relistened to the soundtrack recently and genuinely all of us that could relate to Role of a Lifetime and See Me deserve financial compensation

#no bc it’s such an odd experience listening to it now #bc even though it’s been several years and i fully accept myself now #i can still remember how i felt when i first listened and connected to it #musicals #bare: a pop opera #bare a pop opera #b:apo #bapo

i think the thing about jason mcconnell for me is that i don't think he has to be likeable. of course i wish more people liked him, or at least hated him correctly, but jason does not have to be likeable. likeability should not, and does not, change the fact that jason's death was an un/avoidable tragedy. it is aspiring to be as likeable as possible that led to his death, and that lead to the actions and words jason says that make him unlikeable and unrelatable to most people today, and in general is the main problem for many characters. to argue that jason should be more likeable is to miss the point, to me.

#wynn speaks #bare: a pop opera #bare analysis #<- just barely #idk i've been thinking. as always i am a jason apologist and that is what i usually default to thinking abt when it comes to bapo

i am so thankful for fandom.

i am so thankful for the gifsets, the fanfic, the fanart, the memes, the overanalysis of every little aspect of a piece of media, the group chats, the private spamming in dms, the openness towards making our own representation, the queer and neurodivergent safety that is created, the lack of shaming for intense emotional reactions or for being obsessive, the community aspect and discussion, etc.

and i am especially thankful for the validation, the closure, the healing, the solidarity, and the connection that fan spaces can provide. i’m thankful that i can have so much content for all of my interests, that i can feel that fulfilment of my deep desire to enjoy the things i love fully. i’m thankful that after i finish a show, a book, a movie, anything, and i’m genuinely upset, in tears, or maybe even having a trauma response (ex. media with mental illness or grief themes), i can come here and laugh. if i’m angry, if i’m ecstatic, if i’m unsatisfied, if i’m so anxious i don’t know what to do after i finish something, i can come here and know i’m not alone.

fandom is NOT all good. the discourse, the gatekeeping, the lack of boundaries when real life people are involved, and yeah, a lot of it enables unhealthy relationships with media. so many obsessions i’ve had have been toxic (*cough* supernatural *cough*), and being a part of fandoms didn’t exactly help me get out of that. however that can coexist with the fact that having other people as passionate as i was made me feel so much less alone and to this day gives me a safe space to release what is in my mind.

basically, thank you. if you’re on this hellsite, if you’re a creator within fandoms, a commenter, or just a lurker contributing with likes, you contribute to people like me feeling less alone, and i’m really glad you exist.

Do you know how much he loved? Did you know how much he cared? Lost in the teachings was a boy So all alone and scared Father, we were so in love And that's what I find so odd Our love was pure and nothing else Brought me closer to God

Matt referring to the portrait as it vs Ivy referring to the portrait as her and she

#I was listening to my playlist and portrait of a girl came on and now I’ve been listening to it on repeat for like 15 minutes #I’ve never seen a performance of BAPO (live or otherwise) so I have no idea if there’s an actual portrait but I assume there is #and it’s just…Ivy is so compelling to me. #matt can’t see past the persona ivy puts up ivy can’t escape from it matt sees her the same way other people do: an object AHHRHEHSHJDKDISK #I was never really in the fandom so someone could’ve pointed this out before but if it has been said then I’m saying it again #bare: a pop opera #bapo #ivy robinson #matt lloyd #ky’s gallery

i can't stop thinking about how jason opens his speech with 'webster's defines promise as a declaration that something will or will not be done' in promise. like. that's THE most cliche way to start an essay or a speech it's so funny

#my professor always went on about how we shouldn't do it #to be fair if i were in his situation making sure the speech wouldn't be cliche would be the least of my concerns #bare: a pop opera

that post abt how fatphobia is rampant even among progressive circles is so true and it highlights my issue with bare la 2014's skinnywashing of nadia. here is a show that seeks to get audiences to consider their biases, how they can intertwine with and contribute to stereotypes and narratives of conformity, and how it affects not just ourselves but more specifically how it affects young people who struggle to find themselves and connect to each other, and even moreso because of these biases... and you skinnywash the fat character. you skinnywash the fat character who has a whole song about how fatphobia prevents her from getting good roles (OH THE IRONY) and how fatphobia prevents her from socializing and how being fat has informed how she interacts with others because it informs how other people interact with her. you SKINNYWASH nadia and undermine her whole character. i say i don't watch it because i'm petty but it's also because i just don't trust productions with skinny nadias. how are you supposed to properly send that message when you don't understand it? when you're casting a fat character and you don't? and don't play like they couldn't find a single fat actor to play nadia in all of fucking california. college productions are able to find fat actors to play nadia and that's a much smaller pool of people than all of california because fat actors aren't unicorns. it's fatphobia, plain and simple. (or plain and jane, aharharhar.)

#wynn speaks #bare: a pop opera #idk if skinnywash is an actual term but you know what i mean.
