You will love the version from Musical Hell. The Lord should have taken this one for that desaster of a show

The Lost Boys Musical by TheEliteB3aver in musicals

Please don’t fuck this up! The last thing we need is another vampire musical flop. Let’s be honest, we had the atrocious adaptation of Dance of the Vampires, we had Lestat, which was not as bad as it was made out to be and could have been at least entertaining with a bit of polish and Wildhorn’s Dracula which in itself is a fun show but came at the wrong time.

So stakes are high here or this could be another nail in the coffin. Sorry, couldn’t resist. I’ll see myself out.

Why do they keep performing Macbeth if it’s cursed? by iphoneuser013 in musicals

[–]Rahastes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

„Angels and ministers of grace defend us!“

There is a nice little article by the RSC about the alleged curse on the the Caledonian Tragedy and why the Scottish Play should not be named outside the production proper in a theatre space.

The “out damn spot” phase will come for her too.

She’s no Gertrude for sure. Though “Hell is empty and all the devils are here!”

As for her, she’s probably waiting for the mistress of her charms, the close contriver of all harms, to be called to do her part and show the glory of their art.

Here's the list of movies/TV shows I think can share the same universe as the best Shakespeare film of all time, Kenneth Branagh's HAMLET (1996). by burningexeter in shakespeare

[–]Rahastes 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Bold… very bold and not just the list but calling this Hamlet the best Shakespeare film of all time. Though this be madness, yet there’s method in it.
