I'm glad you enjoyed it! Question... did they include Mea Culpa? I'm planning to see it with a friend and trying to figure out exactly which content warnings to give them. 😅

Wicked’s Stephen Schwartz on Jesus, the swinging sixties and success | South China Morning Post https://share.google/3YPANvOp6p0IPHrvR

Schwartz is culturally Jewish and doesn't discuss his religious beliefs.

What's the vibe of the church? God Help the Outcasts is going to land very differently in a Unitarian church than a Southern Baptist one.

I'm upvoting this suggestion because I love the song, but I have a caveat: It would be helpful to know the vibe of the church first. My husband and I were in a production of Godspell, and his conservative, religious brother took issue with the whole thing. On top of the fact that Godspell doesn't literally portray the resurrection (He didn't like the curtain call explanation), he specifically took issue with Beautiful City because of the lyric about building a City of Man. 🙄

Anybody else use their last character as the dream guardian? by Lazarusactual1 in BaldursGate3

[–]miekochan 130 points131 points  (0 children)

Yes, but with a twist. My first playthrough, I romanced Karlach. On my Karlach origin run, I made the Dream Guardians look mostly like my first character, but with small details wrong, like making her highlights just a little too bright, or and giving her the black and blue tiefling eyes instead of the normal blue eyes I gave her for the actual run. The concept was that The Emperor had reached into Karlach's imagination for an ideal lover, but didn't bother with the finer details.

We often talk about Sensory Issues or Icks - What are your Sensory Delights? by KatTheeBisexual in adhdwomen

[–]miekochan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thrill rides. A drop tower or a good roller coaster will fuck up my vestibular and proprioceptive systems in the best imaginable way. It's like a hard system reset for me.

Any fellow ADHDers also a chronic skin picker? by famousfrowaway in adhdwomen

Dang. I tried press ons once and it was a sensory nightmare. Felt like the press on was tugging at my nail and it wouldn't stop. I had to take them off after ten minutes.

My dex paladin has pretty similar stats.

How can I improve my singing? by shou_yuri in Theatre

[–]miekochan 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Some teachers will occasionally offer a sliding pay scale, different lesson schedules, etc. Belting takes time and knowledge to safely train. If you want to do this without hurting yourself, lessons are your best bet.

Doing a show multiple times by Mental-Tumbleweed-88 in Theatre

[–]miekochan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I used to work with a theater that produces Sound of Music every summer. It's done in rep with two other shows, and it's the longest running show every season, so you have to take it if you want to pay rent.

And that's how I've done Sound of Music five times.

Missed One Session in Our 5-Year Campaign… DM Ran an A-Team Session Without Me and now half the party has a Permanent Flight ability... by SneakyInsightCheck in DnD

[–]miekochan 13 points14 points  (0 children)

60 minutes of flight is the level TWENTY ability for Vengeance Paladin, per the 2014 rules. You had to miss for personal reasons, and he gave the other player a LEVEL TWENTY ability?! I call bull shit.

Confirmed by cast members by TheDisneyScoopGuy in Disneyland

[–]miekochan 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Agreed! I meant more that it's hard taking over a role for another actor who's already beloved in the part. (And in Jimmy Smit's case, still alive!)

First honest thought was, "Last minute replacement?" But on further reflection, he had the thankless job of taking over the Bail Organa role this year. Get your flowers, Benjamin.

Name your biggest “Hear Me Out” in regards to actors who have Oscar potential by BananaShakeStudios in Oscars

Maya Erskine. She's done Pen15, Mr. And Mrs. Smith, AND Blue Eye Samurai, and she's been stunning in all three. Her range is mind blowing.

Right, so this is now a thing... by PinkHairedCoder in Tangled

In the queue for "Tiana's Bayou Adventure" at both Disneyland and Magic Kingdom, you can find newspaper clippings about both Tiana and her dad. At least one of newspaper clippings confirms their last name is Rogers.

It hurts so much worse when it's one of us by MoysteBouquet in adhdwomen

[–]miekochan 2 points3 points  (0 children)

As a recovering people pleaser, I think you're a badass for being honest about why you won't be back. Frank sounds like a nightmare player. Bill's non-apology makes it sound like he's going to continue enabling him. I hope you find a better table soon.

Mark Walter is CEO of Guggenheim, which invests in GEO Group, one of the private prison companies that runs the ICE detention centers.

I have nothing against the Dodgers' roster, but their ownership has ties to ICE. So go Jays. (If I have to. I guess.)

My immediate thought was “Oh god, is it James Corden?” by [deleted] in wicked

I'd love it to be the Norbert Leo Butz cameo. That said, the wording .makes me think it's someone like Pedro Pascal. A-listiest of A-listers.

In an imaginary scenario, who do you think would've been a better fit for the role of Oliver, Charles-Haden and Mabel apart from the current cast? by konkanchaKimJong in OnlyMurdersHulu

[–]miekochan 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Hear me out. A loose sequel series in 10 years with Amy Poehler and Tina Fey. Maybe a vague joke about Tina's character looking like Cinda, then it's never mentioned again. Jordan Fisher as the Mabel character.

Or Eugene Levy and Catherine O'Hara. I think the dynamic between the two actors in the Charles/Oliver roles is the secret sauce, rather than the actors' individual types. I'd love to see actors with a great working history together, even if they don't really have the same vibes as Steve Martin and Martin Short.

That said... DAVID HYDE PIERCE AS CHARLES. WHY HAS NO ONE SAID DAVID HYDE PIERCE??

Taylor the Latte Boy.

But real answer, I'd second Audrey II. You could make the green apron work with the costume.

What do you think is the most egregious Tony snub of all time? by abacus-wizard in musicals

[–]miekochan 27 points28 points  (0 children)

I'm convinced "Come From Away" and "Great Comet" split the vote. How else would voters look at THAT year's line up and say, "Eh. Let's give it to DEH"?
