an average day with Apollo

me: gosh, i’m feeling so unmotivated and self-conscious right now. i’ll never be good enough to do musical theatre, maybe i should give up on my dreams of performing and just do something i hate for money

Apollo: NOT ON MY WATCH (present for my audition that i dedicated to him, now I’m in the top 5 choices for BOTH female leads in the end of year show)

me: nvm i’m gonna keep performing i love you <3

in other words i literally cannot explain how much i adore Apollo and how grateful i am that he’s with me every step of the way - and knows how to kick me back into gear when life is shitty 💛🧡

Child actors, employed with increasing frequency onstage and in radio, had a drama school of their own in the 1930s. The Juvenile Theatre of Art trained them and gave them an opportunity to act in repertory company at Carnegie Hall. It produced four plays in the 1937-38 season for paid audiences. This was the stage door on January 21, 1938.

To Rodenburg’s astonishment, teaching colleagues refused to let her watch their classes. While she is a renowned authority on Shakespeare and classical theatrical texts, she sensed that they do not even “believe in Shakespeare”. She also heard from students that other teachers were not pushing them to excel, instead telling them: “Don’t worry if you can’t do it. Just lie on the floor for a bit.”

Rowan’s drama school graduation piece from 2005. Someone posted it in the squad.

I thought this was quite well done, buuuuuut TRIGGER WARNING! The "touchy subject" is child abuse. He's just falsely accused of it, but still.

Theatre Playground vs Straight Acting

@maryxschuyler the Stella to my Blanche 💞

Martin said we couldn't post videos on socials but he said nothing about pictures also I think Tumblr doesn't count as it is simply a deep dark void so it should be fine

Also peep the violin wrist I don't think I'll ever do anything better than that in my life icl.

Okay this will seem absolutely random and very splainy but since I see this often in fandom and splaining people is literally my job:

People are often super surprised so many actors can dance, sing, or do things like sword fighting (you know, the stunt version), either very well or at least have it listed on their agency pages. All of these things are part of classical actor‘s training. Obviously not everyone has gone to acting/drama school but especially stage training includes all of this as part of a regular multi-year curriculum.

Dancing is usually basic ballroom dancing, but also sometimes ballet or modern. Singing, too, not for like musical level (that‘s a different specialized degree), but basic hitting notes/carrying a tune thing (if you can‘t do it you will probably not even get into a drama school, it‘s part of auditions). And yeah stage combat is still in it, too, quite often. Gotta be able to do all that Shakespeare nonsense. Anyway, I‘m sure most of you know, if you didn‘t, you‘re welcome.

(Also doesn‘t mean everyone who completed a degree is automatically a great actor or that people who didn‘t are bad obviously but when people list some of these skills it‘s very likely they went through professional training somewhere).

If We Were Villains - Shakespeare Has Never Looked So Good

If We Were Villains by M.L. Rio has been big on TikTok for years now, especially within the Dark Academia sphere. This massive cult following and the short-form content style of TikTok compounded to make me hesitant and outright avoidant of this book. I have tried other Dark Academia favourites TikTok recommended and have been disappointed so when I did decide to pick If We Were Villains up I…

y’all i study musical theatre (praise Apollo and the song he gave me to share) and i’ve just found out my end of year show is footloose. FOOTLOOSE. i’m honestly fuming 😭 but at least i have an excuse to sing some upbeat 80s pop for Apollo and call it rehearsals 🫡

did a shakespeare workshop yesterday and played iago for a fraction of a scene which was so much fun i can't imagine what it was like for sacha dhawan to play the master for so long

#because dhawan!master has the most iago energy for sure #'think‚ my lord?' is still playing over and over in my head being a piece of shit is so much FUN #my scene partner for that bit made such a great othello too i can't remember ever having that much fun in english class #and directing the scene where othello kills desdemona... #i had a talk with the guy running the workshop - he's the artistic director at the shakespeare theater here - about how he got there #and FUCK psychology i am going to film school #drama school #whatever #i mean not fuck psychology entirely i'm still gonna work towards it for a while because it's good to have something to fall back on #but still #i wanna direct iagos for the rest of my life

His dad doesn't sound great, tbh. Even when he talks about key milestones in his life, Guy seems to have been the one there for him - e.g. paying for him to audition for drama school and staying with him in London during. Shouldn't that be things your dad does for you?

Probs why he doesn't invite him to anything loool

I think he said he got money from four people for those auditions: Tina, Guy, his auntie, and David. So yeah, that bare minimum he did do, but I doubt much more than that. And yes, Guy was for sure the one who went down to London with him, not David. 🤷🏻‍♀️

Back in early drama school days Geoffrey Rush and Mel Gibson were schoolmates and roomies together! Mel also played Romeo to Judy Davis’ Juliet!

David Tennant being a lifelong Doctor Who fan who was inspired by the show to act, becoming the Doctor and Ncuti Gatwa who watched David Tennant and was inspired to act, playing the Doctor opposite David’s Doctor is the most beautiful thing

#This is a fanboy moment of immense proportions #Also they are both so silly it’s perfect #Dw spoilers #Doctor who #david tennant #ncuti gatwa #10th doctor #14th doctor #15th doctor #I’m just thinking of “I saw a regeneration scene on tv aged 3 and decided to be an actor” tennant #And ‘I watched David Tennant”s hamlet before drama school and realized that’s what an actor should be and what I should aspire to” ncuti #And that hug is so wholesome #it’s really come full circle #Also we can’t forget Mel for being the no 1 hype woman there
