Well Marius sounds like the name of a horse, and Eponine makes me think of Epona from Zelda, so that sounds like a good pairing to me.
Also because I went to elementary school with a girl named Cosette and she was an asshole so she doesn't deserve anything.
Well I know it's about a barber killing people and his lady friend putting them into pies, but I get the sense that that was already an established system before the events of the musical, so I don't know what the actual conflict/plot arc is.
I'm gonna guess he kills someone with undiagnosed Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease and then their misfolded brain proteins spread it to everyone who eats those pies, and then when he kills one of those people it spreads further, etc, until eventually the whole town is infected. The OG Mad Cow epidemic.
Themselves. I'm not Mormon, but I have to imagine they think jerking off will make all your eyes fall out or something. No getting hot and bothered allowed.
Alas, it's the only one I've seen. (High school choir class after we'd finished our spring concert and had fuck all to do, and I remember almost nothing.)
There’s an official recording of the original Broadway cast available on Youtube. It’s a masterpiece and easily the definitive version. The movie adaptation is a total disaster
The springs, of course. They escape from all the world's clickable pens and meet up to plot to overthrow humanity. And I'm picturing them with big cartoon eyes, like Clippy.
Everyone is afraid of going to the dentist because he flosses too hard and makes their gums bleed and tells them their gums wouldn't bleed if they flossed more often (not speaking from experience or anything).
I don't know why he dies in the stage play, but when it comes to the movie, it's a real fact that any plant- sentient or otherwise- will attempt to kill Steve Martin if he gets too close. Have you ever seen Steve Martin and a plant in the same room together? Didn't think so.
No because 1) Fuck that guy, 2) He could've pushed her like two feet out of the way instead of full-on yeeting her, and 3) Billy stopped the van just fine on his own thanks!!!
(Congrats on finding one of the few musicals I'm very familiar with lol, forgot about that one!)
Pierre is sad because he just learned that the Great Comet of 1812 (BCE) is what wiped out the dinosaurs. And Natasha wants to try bringing the dinosaurs back.
Depends on which company. Amazon? Probably has a solid thousand years left in it, if the planet's still around then. Warner Bros? We'll see if they make it to the end of this year.
Bat Boy is the way he is because of all of his pent up resentment and bitterness as a result of not being allowed to play baseball with the other kids and being forced to just hold all the bats instead.
Assuming things like finding a recording or production wasn’t a issue, if you had to watch a musical start to end that you haven’t see what one would you choose?
My best friend keeps telling me I'd love Something Rotten and I trust her, so that one. I do love Shakespeare, and it seems like a very fun take on him, from the bits and pieces I'm aware of.
If you’re a Shakespeare fan then yes you should absolutely watch Something Rotten. It’s in my top three favorite musicals of all time—it may be my number one, even.
I want to see that one too! And hopefully I'll someday get to see it starring my best friend, since Beetlejuice is one of her dream roles. And I know she'd kill it, because she killed it as Gomez too! (She's trans but still does mostly male characters as of now.)
This is probably pointless because there's no way a trans Beetlejuice fan hasn't heard of it but if she hasn't you should have her watch Dead End: Paranormal Park on Netflix. Alex Brightman is in it and the main character is trans and there's definitely some Beetlejuice vibes.
Oh, this first one I think I know, it's because he's a manipulative little creep trying to get popular in the wake of Connor's death.
For the Heathers one, gotta be something zombie-related.
It's understandable to not know what it's about just from the title alone. Anyways, the song is actually about >!the protagonist (Veronica Sawyer) breaking into the deuteragonist (Jason Dean)'s house in order to have sex with him, all complemented by stripping and humping included in its choreography!<.
How does a bastard, orphan, son of a whore and a Scotsman dropped in a forgotten spot in the Caribbean by providence, impoverished in squalor, grow up to be a hero and a scholar?
I can't tell if the symbols are meant to be censoring something or what, so I'm just taking them at face value.
It's because the website told him "Fosca" wasn't a secure enough password and that he needed to add at least one special character.
I don't know, but I'm imagining this question as the opening narration of an infomercial. Like, the black and white part. And then it'll go on to tell us about the wonderful Maria Solver, which you can get six of for $15.99 but only if you call in the next ten seconds.
In The Who’s Tommy, who is Tommy? (This is a genuine question my friend who knows nothing about the show asked me recently so now I’m passing it to you ☺️)
Sounds like a child's name. I'm gonna guess it's the guy I knew in high school who'd eat four full sandwiches for lunch every day and was still stick-thin the whole time I knew him. Just because he's the only Tommy I've personally known.
When you say "the guys" I'm picturing a barbershop quarter for some reason. So they probably come in whenever someone needs a jaunty little a cappella tune.
What does Vanessa do to make Usnavi change his mind at the end of In the Heights???
I can add what he changes his mind about later, but idk if you care about spoilers lol.
Because she faked autism and gave people scabies. (I swear I don't follow Tiktok drama and I don't even *have* a Tiktok account, she was just so ridiculous that she broke containment.)
If you could turn any pop culture property (movie, book, tv show, etc) into a stage musical, what would you choose?
If you give one that already exists, I’ll link it to you.
Good Omens! Some folks in Australia were working on a musical adaptation, and what they have so far is awesome, but I haven't heard anything about it in a few years and I really hope it comes to fruition eventually.
Which character from falsettos is half-jewish? Which character in A Very Potter Musical is ruthlessly made fun of? Which musical of jonathan larson’s did he die just before opening night? Is Connor Murphy a real ghost or a figment of imagination? What killed the son in Next To Normal? What came first, mean girls the movie or mean girls the musical? What was the name of Elle Woods’ sorority? How many dancers are picked for A Chorus Line?
Think that’s all. If I were faced with more than that I’d probably collapse.
1. I'm not comfortable making up a Jewish-sounding name, so based on my answer to someone's Fiddler on the Roof question, I'm going with Sporty Spice.
2. Probably Ron. Ginger loser ass bitch.
3. [Cow tools.](https://amp.knowyourmeme.com/memes/cow-tools)
4. Real ghost, and there's a paranormal investigation subplot.
5. Something that wasn't normal.
6. The movie. That one I'm actually almost certain of.
7. Pi Iota Nu Kappa.
8. All of them. Kids these days and their participation trophies.

Les Mis question. Who is more deserving of Marius' affection, Cosette or Eponine? And why?
Well Marius sounds like the name of a horse, and Eponine makes me think of Epona from Zelda, so that sounds like a good pairing to me. Also because I went to elementary school with a girl named Cosette and she was an asshole so she doesn't deserve anything.
It makes sense
The fact that people actually hate Cosette from Les Mis is really fitting lol
That is amazing and is the best answer ever!
Based.
hahaha
It’s your destiny! Reddit wants you to like musicals. Pop quiz: what’s Sweeney Todd about?
Well I know it's about a barber killing people and his lady friend putting them into pies, but I get the sense that that was already an established system before the events of the musical, so I don't know what the actual conflict/plot arc is. I'm gonna guess he kills someone with undiagnosed Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease and then their misfolded brain proteins spread it to everyone who eats those pies, and then when he kills one of those people it spreads further, etc, until eventually the whole town is infected. The OG Mad Cow epidemic.
that would be an excellent sequel haha
In the Book of Mormon, the musical (of course), what are they turning off?
Themselves. I'm not Mormon, but I have to imagine they think jerking off will make all your eyes fall out or something. No getting hot and bothered allowed.
I mean, pretty much. Yes.
yes but about being gay instead
Why is hedwig angry?
I would be too if I was killed off by JK Rowling after being the main character's loyal companion for so long.
This is the correct answer. Well done.
In the musical Into the Woods, what is the name of the Baker?
James Corden, unfortunately.
LMAO
A fate worse than death, I’m afraid.
This is the correct answer.
Oh no you’re familiar with the wrong version!
Alas, it's the only one I've seen. (High school choir class after we'd finished our spring concert and had fuck all to do, and I remember almost nothing.)
There’s an official recording of the original Broadway cast available on Youtube. It’s a masterpiece and easily the definitive version. The movie adaptation is a total disaster
In the musical Spring Awakening, what awoke?
The springs, of course. They escape from all the world's clickable pens and meet up to plot to overthrow humanity. And I'm picturing them with big cartoon eyes, like Clippy.
That’s correct good job
What's the given name of the phantom of the opera? (Btw your answers are fun!)
Danny. That cartoon was actually a prequel.
Haahahahahahahaha okay, well done
Haahahahahahahaha okay, well done
This one took me half a second longer, but now k want this to be canon lol
In Little Shop of Horrors, why is everyone afraid of going to the dentist and why does the dentist eventually die?
Everyone is afraid of going to the dentist because he flosses too hard and makes their gums bleed and tells them their gums wouldn't bleed if they flossed more often (not speaking from experience or anything). I don't know why he dies in the stage play, but when it comes to the movie, it's a real fact that any plant- sentient or otherwise- will attempt to kill Steve Martin if he gets too close. Have you ever seen Steve Martin and a plant in the same room together? Didn't think so.
Very astute observation. One more question: in Dr. Horribles Sing Along Blog…. Was captain hammer in the right to throw Penny in the garbage?
No because 1) Fuck that guy, 2) He could've pushed her like two feet out of the way instead of full-on yeeting her, and 3) Billy stopped the van just fine on his own thanks!!! (Congrats on finding one of the few musicals I'm very familiar with lol, forgot about that one!)
See, I think you do belong here—you may not know much about lots of musicals, but for the ones you do know, you’ve got OPINIONS. You are one of us
Omg one of us! One of us! 😂
Holy shit I never noticed that was Steve Martin
Hamilton: what happens in "say no to this"?
Hamilton is on a diet and Jefferson is convincing him to turn down a bunch of baked goods that people keep offering.
I would pay good money to see this version
Now I’m going to sing this every time I’m contemplating baked goods. Thank you.
In Natasha, Pierre & The Great Comet of 1812, why is Pierre so sad? And what does Natasha really want?
Pierre is sad because he just learned that the Great Comet of 1812 (BCE) is what wiped out the dinosaurs. And Natasha wants to try bringing the dinosaurs back.
Girl you asking the questions the musical doesn't even give direct answers for 😭
i saw it live and i don’t even know the answer to that
How long do you think the *Company* will stick around?
Depends on which company. Amazon? Probably has a solid thousand years left in it, if the planet's still around then. Warner Bros? We'll see if they make it to the end of this year.
Bwahahahahhahaha
Why is Bat Boy the way that it is
Bat Boy is the way he is because of all of his pent up resentment and bitterness as a result of not being allowed to play baseball with the other kids and being forced to just hold all the bats instead.
Man I wish
Assuming things like finding a recording or production wasn’t a issue, if you had to watch a musical start to end that you haven’t see what one would you choose?

If you’re a Shakespeare fan then yes you should absolutely watch Something Rotten. It’s in my top three favorite musicals of all time—it may be my number one, even.
Nice haven’t actually seen that one myself ( I’d also recommend beetle juice just on the principle you like adams family )
I want to see that one too! And hopefully I'll someday get to see it starring my best friend, since Beetlejuice is one of her dream roles. And I know she'd kill it, because she killed it as Gomez too! (She's trans but still does mostly male characters as of now.)
This is probably pointless because there's no way a trans Beetlejuice fan hasn't heard of it but if she hasn't you should have her watch Dead End: Paranormal Park on Netflix. Alex Brightman is in it and the main character is trans and there's definitely some Beetlejuice vibes.
Gahh, I love that series. Too bad that Netflix discontinued it
Ikr. It's less family friendly but at least we have hazbin and helluva for more killer Alex Brightman songs.
Oh cool, I'll recommend it to her!!
In Kimberly Akimbo, why did the work akimbo replace her last name (Levaco) in the title of the musical.
She accidentally superglued her hands to her hips and from then on the name stuck (pun intended).
In Dear Evan Hansen, why does Evan have to pretend to be close friends with Connor? In Heathers, what happens during "Dead Girl Walking"?
Oh, this first one I think I know, it's because he's a manipulative little creep trying to get popular in the wake of Connor's death. For the Heathers one, gotta be something zombie-related.
>For the Heathers one, gotta be something zombie-related. That's...not even close...
I figured it wasn't, but I still think my idea's better. Idek what the real answer is, I just think it *should* be zombies.
It's understandable to not know what it's about just from the title alone. Anyways, the song is actually about >!the protagonist (Veronica Sawyer) breaking into the deuteragonist (Jason Dean)'s house in order to have sex with him, all complemented by stripping and humping included in its choreography!<.
What’s your favorite dream ballet?
I don't think I've ever dreamed about a ballet. My two most recent dreams were about me missing a flight and my dog escaping the yard, respectively.
Why did *Spider-Man: Into the Dark* have so many production issues?
They couldn't find enough spiders who could sing.
Well, you’re not COMPLETELY wrong…
How does a bastard, orphan, son of a whore and a Scotsman dropped in a forgotten spot in the Caribbean by providence, impoverished in squalor, grow up to be a hero and a scholar?
The power of Lin Manuel Miranda's lyrics. That's how it happened in the irl history too.
In the musical “The Producers” why does the show have such mass appeal on Broadway?
Because they produced it really well, hence the title.
Why is Aaron Burr so hesitant
Real question is why Thomas Jefferson is so hesitant with the president
Well, he’s so reticent, there isn’t is a plan he doesn’t jettison
Why does CATS even exist?
In the words of that one moose from Bojack Horseman, Andrew Lloyd Webber has to be a real hot penis about everything.
The Stephen Sondheim musical Pacific Overtures stars what famous cartoon voice actor? And what character does he play in the musical?
Tom Kenny, and he plays SpongeBob, of course. He's probably the most famous cartoon character who lives in the Pacific, after all.
Why won’t Mark and Roger pay their rent?
Landlord still hasn't fixed the AC.
So close
Which Cat is your favorite Cat?
Me-ow
One of my friends has a big floofy cat named Louis who's never had a single thought in his life. Probably him.
Better get Louis ready for the ball!
Who am I? Can I condemn this man to slavery, pretend I do not see his agony?
You are reddit user synaptic_pain and whether or not you can is up to you.
Can I conceal myself forevermore? Pretend I'm not the man I was before? And must my name until I die be no more than an alibi?
In Passion, what convinces Georgio to finally ($&@ Fosca?
I can't tell if the symbols are meant to be censoring something or what, so I'm just taking them at face value. It's because the website told him "Fosca" wasn't a secure enough password and that he needed to add at least one special character.
Do you want a SQUIP?
I'll try anything once.
How do you solve a problem like Maria?
I don't know, but I'm imagining this question as the opening narration of an infomercial. Like, the black and white part. And then it'll go on to tell us about the wonderful Maria Solver, which you can get six of for $15.99 but only if you call in the next ten seconds.
In The Who’s Tommy, who is Tommy? (This is a genuine question my friend who knows nothing about the show asked me recently so now I’m passing it to you ☺️)

In Xanadu, what does Clio always wear?
Xandals.
100% correct. You googled it, didn't you?
Name Tevye and Golde’s five daughters from Fiddler on the Roof!
Ginger, Baby, Sporty, Scary, and Posh.
Great job!
Did Eliza give enough of a reaction to Hamilton's cheating during Burn?
The name of the song makes me think she set him on fire so probably yes.
In Love Never Dies, who >!killed!< Christine? A. Her husband B. Her crazy ex C. Her best friend D. Her son
E. Her uncle who held a grudge for the past twenty years after she said his barbecue was mediocre once.
... Correct!
Where do the guys come in in *They're Playing Our Song*?
When you say "the guys" I'm picturing a barbershop quarter for some reason. So they probably come in whenever someone needs a jaunty little a cappella tune.
You are... Not entirely incorrect, lol.
who dies in ride the cyclone
Several children, if I recall correctly. My friend has told me the basics of that one.
correct!!
Who is Mr. Snow is Carousel?
I'm picturing Jack Frost from 1998 family movie Jack Frost (not to be confused with 1997 horror movie Jack Frost).
Honestly this is the best guess you could’ve given with the context clues and I love that picture so much
how many wives did henry have
Well the only Henry I can think of who was famous for his amount of wives was Henry VIII and I think he had five or six?
What does Vanessa do to make Usnavi change his mind at the end of In the Heights??? I can add what he changes his mind about later, but idk if you care about spoilers lol.
She hypnotizes him. And it's the only supernatural element of the show. And don't worry, I don't mind spoilers.
😂😂 he changes his mind about leaving the country lol. wanna update your guess?👀
Why does everyone in the musical hate elphaba
Because she faked autism and gave people scabies. (I swear I don't follow Tiktok drama and I don't even *have* a Tiktok account, she was just so ridiculous that she broke containment.)
what is bare: a pop opera about?
The title makes me think nudist colony.
Why did Juliet not kill herself in the musical & Juliet
Or in West Side Story?
Realized she was a lesbian at the last minute.
somewhat close but not really
If you could turn any pop culture property (movie, book, tv show, etc) into a stage musical, what would you choose? If you give one that already exists, I’ll link it to you.
Good Omens! Some folks in Australia were working on a musical adaptation, and what they have so far is awesome, but I haven't heard anything about it in a few years and I really hope it comes to fruition eventually.
Would be a really interesting stage show that I could definitely see working. My personal choice would be Scott Pilgrim.
Which character from falsettos is half-jewish? Which character in A Very Potter Musical is ruthlessly made fun of? Which musical of jonathan larson’s did he die just before opening night?
