But The Prom already has a future in a Netflix feature adaptation from Ryan Murphy.

NOOOOOOO GODDAMMIT WHY MUST HE RUIN EVERYTHING

I know some people in Moulin Rouge, buuuut I don't think they're likely to help me out, so I guess I'll
be entering that lottery, lol. Def interested in Sea Wall/A Life; I remembered that filmed Andrew Scott version from a million years ago was pretty great.

As his career has gone on I think Murphy has become a really good director (the 'Pose' pilot is so brilliantly directed, it's gonna be such bs when he and Janet Mock lose to GoT at the Emmys). Hopefully he's not the one who is writing the screenplay and they keep the majority of the Broadway cast on board.

I'm a spurned Glee fan so I can't believe I'm actually giving him the benefit of the doubt lol, but I've liked a lot of his work these last few years

Andrew made Sea Wall even more heartbreaking than it already is because that man was born to be on stage

I was DETERMINED to see Moulin Rouge in NYC and I even had the opportunity but moving really just fucked that plan up so I will always be bitter about it.

So very tempted but I'm not currently working so I have limited funds. Plus, whatever I'm spending is on the new place we're moving to and who knows... I may have a new job by September . Lol

Mood. I live in VA and the drive isn’t that bad but the city itself takes it out of me. I don’t know how some of y’all live there, but then I am 1000% a quiet lil recluse who could have adapted easily to city living if I had done itwheh I was younger but now? No thanks. It’s an anxiety attack every time.
