listen, if your theatre production is comprised of a cast of like maybe a dozen people total and the singular set is like, entirely boxes/piles of literal garbage/scaffolding that never moves and maybe some chairs and a couple of props that will be recycled 20 times over in different ways throughout the show, it slaps! it simply just is an incredible production. I think this is a law of the universe or something.

#this is about #holding achilles #the lightning thief musical #come from away #and honorable mentions to Starkid and Cats the musical #lt musical #cfa #LISTEN. more greek-mythology inspired theatre productions need sets that are comprised of like 90% scaffolding that never moves #this is my take-away from Holding Achilles and LT Musical #scaffolding set. protagonist has an identity crisis next to/in a body of water. probably a water-related identity crisis

Listen this whole scene hurts so much. And the choreography is so gorgeous. I just had to draw it.

Also I have So Many screenshots of all my favorite poses from this show so. I might end up drawing more of them...we’ll see

THIS POSE WAS SO HARD #And I have not rendered a drawing like this in a hot minute so dont mind any awkward spots lmao #also what the HELL is the monstrosity that is Stage Lighting #like wHERE is all of this soft dim light COMING FROM #I could scream about the symbolism of this pose specifically (and all the other poses they do during this scene) for forever #but I fear I may be reading into it a bit too much #my art

Holding Achilles?

Y’all, I missed out on watching Holding Achilles when it was free on the Sydney Festival website and I’m so bummed about it. Does anyone know if it is still around somewhere or have a copy I could watch???

Chiron: "I see the way you look at him. ..."

"... You see a version of Achilles, even he struggles to find. He looks at you the same way."

Patroclus: "Uh, 'way'? What way? What do you mean by 'way'?"

Chiron: "Exactly."

[lost-dazed-andconfused]

I just opened a discord that had Nothing to do with this fandom. Like not even close. Not even fandom. And my brain got confused at why no one was talking about it.

And this thing isn't even really a proper fandom yet. It's an Australian play that has played in two cities and available online for a limited time.

But my silly little brain is like... Why are people talking about something else? How is it possible to have any thoughts other than about this?

Anyways, Holding Achilles owns my heart and soul rn.

“For every year of this war, you’ve held me when I didn’t know how to stand. I’m drowning, Achilles, I’m drowning. Only this time you can’t pull me to the surface because you’re drowning too.”

“I’m Sorry.”
