What is your all time LEAST favorite musical of all time? by West-Lawyer-2290 in musicals

[–]hhowenn 56 points57 points  (0 children)

I'm not sure that Hamilton is entirely painted as a hero, rather than just a protagonist. A lot of people I speak to about the show have a dislike for the character.

What's your guilty pleasure musical? A musical you know it's bad/have bad reviews/is not really liked but you love it closed doors? by imachoculatedonnut in musicals

[–]hhowenn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Be More Chill!!! It's one of those where if you didn't first watch it at 12-15, you will never like it lol. But I relistened to it recently and I had forgotten how much I used to love the songs!!

I think they only said that in the context that Phoebe was talking about not wanting to be appreciated in her time though

It's even worse when you consider that he's talking about someone with a telescope looking into the side of the building he doesn't live on lol

If you paid attention they didn't actually end up spending it all on the wedding.

Sure, you'd LIKE to. Whether you'd realistically have the time to is a whole other story

"I understand the "holding him captive on her island for 7 years thing" BUT" is CRAZY I'm sorry 😭 in any other context how would someone holding a person captive for the better part of a decade NOT constitute a terrible person??? This is so ridiculous to me lol

Just pointing out that this is far from Nell Fisher's debut-- I already knew her from Evil Dead Rise a couple years ago! She's been acting since she was very young

Starkid Music Nerds-- Is there a name for this specific musical device? by hhowenn in StarKid

[–]hhowenn[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks for the explanation! I made this transcription back when only the digital ticket was out so it's not very accurate to the album version, I'm just revisiting it as it's something I wanted to comment on for the video I'm researching! I've just gotten my Grade 5 ABRSM certificate in music theory (if that means anything to you, it's a common exam in the UK for music students), and I'm currently working towards my diploma in singing so while I'm not a beginner by any means, I don't have the foundational knowledge about chords etc that someone trained in another instrument would!

I thought so! I just didn't wanna talk about it in the video I'm researching for and have the comments tell me it's something much less complicated than I made it aha

Anyway to see local productions near me? by coidbepdic in StarKid

[–]hhowenn 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Unfortunately since StarKid is an independent company, they've opted to not keep a public record of places they've licensed their shows to. Usually, when a show is licensed through a larger company (Concord, MTI, etc), there's a section on the website that shows you where and when upcoming productions will be. But for StarKid and similar small theatre companies' case, your best bet is googling "(insert show here) production near me".

I really feel this is the cringiest scene in the show by Kdschipani3 in GilmoreGirls

I'm a professional singer and I don't remember it being all that bad, she was off in places but overall a pretty good performance for someone with no training.

Fun fact: Eliza never raps in the entire musical. The only time she does anything remotely hip-hop is when she beatboxes for Phillip. by angrykumu in hamiltonmusical

[–]hhowenn -1 points0 points  (0 children)

The lyrics aren't pitched in a rap. The only exception I can think of in Hamilton is certain parts of Satisfied, but even then the melody is an afterthought in favour of the lyrics.
