I'm a pretty big musical theatre nerd, that's why I'm making this thread ... to post videos and other musical related stuff, so I don't have to spam other threads with it. I'd probably be the only one posting here, but whatevs. I've been listening to a lot of Wicked lately. I found this gem on YouTube, it's the original German Elphaba and Fiyero, almost ten years after the premiere of Wicked in Stuttgart. Willemijn Verkaik is my favourite Elphaba. I've seen her something like ten times, and each time she's managed to take my breath away. She's also the only Elphaba who's played the role in three different languages (and in four different countries), German, Dutch and English (on West End and Broadway). I also met her at the stage door once, we talked for like a minute and she signed my copy of the Wicked novel. The next musical I'm going to see live is Tanz der Vampire at the end of February. This is probably my favourite German musical, so I'm really looking forward to it. Even though I spent a huge chunk of the money I earned this summer on tickets for my entire family, I regret nothing.

I'm obsessed with the Hamilton soundtrack. If only I had the funds to go and see it but I think I'll have to wait for when it makes its way to Boston.

It's really hard to get tickets for Hamilton on Broadway anyway, it's sold out pretty much for forever. Some people are selling their tickets for like ten, twenty times the price they originally paid for them (we're talking like thousands of dollars for one ticket that has the face value of maybe 300 at the most). It's kind of ridiculous. It's going on US tour soon, hope you get the chance to see it! (not sure if you can already pre-order tickets, though) I really want to see it too, and I hope it comes to Germany at some point. If not, I'll try to see the West End production that opens in November this year.

I love this song so much, it's unreal. It's my favourite song in musical theatre.
Nun zählt nur der Augenblick, nicht die Gedanken. Ich leb' erst wenn mein Ich in deinem ruht. Wann reißt die Flut die Mauern ein, wann wird die Glut zum Flammenmeer, wann wird das Feuer uns verzehren?

Basil, so you'll be in Stuttgart then? You should come by and say hi. And bring a yoghurt from Stuttgart's for Al ( alcasinoroyale thinks "Stuttgart" sounds like a yoghurt company).

one day more !!!!! Have you seen Tanz der Vampire? It's soo good! I hope it goes well tomorrow, I'm pretty nervous. Daniel has to go to his office in the morning, so we won't leave until noon, and then we also have to pick up my parents and my brother. The show starts at 6:30 pm, but it would be nice if we got there a few hours earlier so we could have dinner. I really hope everything works out, one traffic jam on the Autobahn could ruin everything!

I really hope everything works out, one traffic jam on the Autobahn could ruin everything! I have but not live. My friend, you know the one that lives in Stuttgart, is a hardcore musical theatre fan and we used to listen and sing to it all the time. Wicked too. And Rent. Although for some reason Wicked and Rent stucked more with me at first listen, I don't know why. But that doesn't mean I don't like Tanz der Vampire. Tbh I think that has a lot to do with Glee which covered Wicked and Rent but ofc never Tanz...
Daniel is the best. I'm sure y'all be fine.

The show was ... so good. I was looking forward to it for months and now I'm kind of sad that it's over. It was nice to see my family and spend some time with them, even if most of it was spent in the car. We got there in time and we had dinner at a fancy but expensive German restaurant, so that was cool. It was Daniel's first time seeing Tanz der Vampire, and he liked it too! I think this is one of those shows that even non-musical fans can enjoy, because like Wicked, it's such a huge spectacle. Also the score is by Jim Steinman, so it's not a very typical musical score, the biggest showstopper is actually Total Eclipse of the Heart. It's an amazing show, it's directed by Roman Polanski and it's based on his movie 'The Fearless Vampire Killers', also known as Dance of the Vampires, (in which Sharon Tate played the female lead, by the way ). Too bad the Broadway version was butchered by Michael Crawford, the original Austrian version is perfection. I'm pretty exhausted from so much driving. Also I didn't really sleep all that well last night, so right now I can barely keep my eyes open.
