I saw a one man show with Billy Crudup (it was incredible) but I was front row and lord I saw so much spit come out of his mouth. I can only imagine that's the norm for theater actors that have to project to a whole audience.
he sounds like a muppet. it's almost comically bad during hurricane. but i read that this was filmed right after the tonys and two weeks before his departure so he was probably exhausted.
His alternate, Javier Muñoz, who did Sunday matinees and eventually took over the role is a much better singer. I didn't care for Hurricane at all until I heard Javier sing it.
I got tickets for a Sunday, not knowing I'd see Javier (which was probably why I could get a ticket), and I have never regretted it because I think he is a much better performer than LMM.
Was Groff’s drooling intentional? It was distracting.
Been reading some interesting criticisms of Hamilton lately (mostly by Lyra Monteiro) and then read this take this morning and still thinking about it.
Mostly they've been BIG in fandom communities forever - I believe they were in the core fandom writers clique in Harry Potter. I can't even explain the frustration I feel around them. They really jump from fandom to fandom courting the BNFs
Mostly, their life has revolved around fandom forever and so it's just - of course it colors how she view everything in the world. Its just fanfic! Its just a race-bent AU fanfic of a nonfiction novel when, there is an actual genre of what they are alking about, Historical Fiction.
Also I started reading that article, god halfway through and went - wait a second only one person writes these kinds of articles, scrolled to the top and there Aja was. Never change Aja!
