Ballet and booze and boys in feathers!

Had a fabulous Sunday with faaaaaaabulous fangirls (matertenebrarum and @fallntotheglitr and krisdia ♥ ♥ ♥) during which we got to see the IMPECCABLE production of Matthew Bourne's Swan Lake.

Yes, that one.

Have you ever seen it? You should rent the DVD! It's really beautifully done. And Adam in your icon is, like, THE Glam Swan. ♥_♥

I have NO CONTEXT WHATSOEVER for that photo. Actually I feel a little skeevy posting it since it's a personal pic from before he joined Adam's band; but it's been posted in tjrpics and he knows of the site and hasn't asked the mods to remove any of those, sooooo... yeah. ANYWAY. Yes: Tommy Joe is holding a toy swan. In the opening scene of MB's Swan Lake, the Prince sleeps with a toy swan. The universe is clearly saying that this fic needs to happen, I mean it's practically DESTINY.

(I heart him so, I can't even)

Wait, are you talking about the traditional Swan Lake or Matthew Bourne's version? If you've seen the MB ballet at the age of 9... wow. WOW.

(I think at least parts of it are on YouTube, btw.)

YES, she will write it! She said so! I plan to encourage the hell out of this endeavor, js. :D

Ah, gotcha. Matthew Bourne's version is a pretty radical take on the original (which I've seen in full and only vaguely remember) and I WARMLY recommend it. :)
