Six The Musical - Tumblr Posts - Page 2

yet another dumb idea

haikyu production of six the musical, except the cast list looks like this

Catherine of Aragon - Hajime Iwaizumi

 Anne Boleyn - Eita Semi

Jane Seymour - Yūji Terushima

Anna of Cleves - Yūki Shibayama

Katherine Howard - Ryūnosuke Tanaka

Catherine Parr - Hitoka Yachi

can you just imagine the reactions of the teamates. karasuno crying when all you wanna do comes on

Nekoma is laughing their butts off when get down comes on

Johzenji is absolutely frozen most of the show because of A :the jokes are amazing and B: the are crying

Seijoh is just blown away because iwaizumi has an amazing voice and they also look really hot in that costume

Ushijima was the costume designer, understudy, choreographer and director... they have no regrets

yachi was the only person on stage wearing actual pants,semi,terushima and shibayamawore the normal costume, iwaizumi made ushijima change his to have shorts same with Tanaka

They met up with their teams after the show but they were still in costume even the band,so imagine being shiratorizawa , after this emotional rollercoaster of a show instead of going back to the dorms your confronted with semi,who is still in costume and ushijima is A: still wearing a headset and backstage clothes and B: is bouncing up and down with after show excitement

Tanaka wore a wig during the proformance so it took a little bit of time to recognize them

This is the wig ⬇️

BONUS:

the ladies in waiting

Musical Director/Keys - Kōtarō Bokuto Drums - Kanji Koganegawa Guitar - Shigeru Yahaba Bass - Lev Haiba

Oh i have so many bc id probably never get cast in any show… I present to you: the many roles I would be great for but would NEVER get cast as.

- any type of swalt in six

- fiona in shrek

- riley in we are the tigers

- eurydice in hadestown

- eliza in hamilton (plus im white and i wouldnt get cast at all)

- CADY IN MEAN GIRLS (this is my 13th reason bc i have a good voice for cady which is y its in caps)

Honestly im probably not talented enough for any of these lmao. I have been cast as howard in a local production of six tho so theres that.

theatre kids of tumblr. reblog this with that one role you know you’d be good for but you’ll never get

for me it’s hermes from hadestown. also maybe skimbleshanks but i think i could get that one if local theatre group did cats.

wow you guys LOVE this post i’ve gotten like 10 notes in the past ten minutes. i’d like to add that i would make an AMAZING orpheus because my range is the same and also i play guitar. unfortunately they do not love the concept of orpheus being a transmasc teenager. so

Silly six- rtc parallel

ok hi! this isn't anything big, i just kind of wanted to scream into the void about this parallel i found between six (the musical) and ride the cyclone. enjoy!!! <3

(the comparisons will be pretty loose so just stick with me)

so first, the premises are rather similar, six dead people battling through song in a competition- like fashion. in this case, the "judges" are different (in six, it's the audience, and in rtc it's karnak, so they think), but karnak is the only one to speak directly to the audience, so they both have some connection to the outside of the fourth wall.

onto characters!!! (i'm analyzing them in the order that they go)

ocean o'connell rosenberg/catherine of aragon

very confident in themselves and their ability to win

has a sibling- rivalry type dynamic with the next person, but loves them despite their constant rivalry

noel gruber/anne boleyn

i don't really have a lot for this one

beef with the previous person

france 🇫🇷 🥖

likes men (i'm running out of ideas)

mischa bachinski/jane seymore

(i'm not counting MLIA as his song for this 😔)

their songs are both love ballads (ish)

definitely their songs are where the show slows down

the babygirls of the fandom

HAUS OF HOLBEIN - MY LIFE IS AWESOME PARALLEL APPRECIATION POST

(best song)

(sunglasses)

ricky potts/anna of cleves

they are the wildcard of the group

dont fit in with everyone else and have stopped trying atp

the fact that their songs are totally different is just hilarious and proves my first point even further

they both don't care about the competition (ricky straight up dropping out; anna singing about how her life is awesome) (mischa reference???😱)

both have the best costume change in the middle of their songs

jane doe/katherine howard

BEHEADED BABES🥰🥰🥰

either don't remember their life or don't want to

their songs are both laments (yes, the BALLAD of jane doe is actually a lament)

(while i'm at it, noel's lament is actually a ballad)

constance blackwood/catherine parr

BEST CHARACTER (in my opinion)

super underrated (also in my opinion)

song starts out sad, picks up the pace

cast's favorite song to perform

their song brings everyone together

both characters are relatively quiet throughout the show

that's it!!! i hope you guys liked it!! :)

queen.

Broadway palettes: modern musical addition

Really enjoyed creating this drawing of the insanely talented Lauren drew as Cathrine of Aragon from SIX the Musical :)

This is also my first ever post on tumblr (apart from the many reblogs I've done in the past haha) so i hope I don't dissapoint haha x

The thing that really captivates me about this performance is the lighting and how it mixes with the choreo of the other queens. They are draped in shadow almost the entire time and their faces are specifically obscured whenever they put their hands on Howard. It gives me two distinct impressions, 1. that the men in her life were never genuine with her and always hid their true intentions to get closer to her, and 2. that this was how those men saw Howard, a faceless nobody, pretty enough to be used for their pleasure and then discarded, because she meant nothing to them. She wasn’t a person in their eyes, she was barely more than a shadow.

Also like the specific placement of their hands. At first it’s hands on the shoulders like a controlling parent keeping you in line, then there’s another on the waist from behind, unable to see who’s grabbing you but keeping you pressed against them, facing outwards like a prize to show off but unable to leave, and then they add the ones on the legs, keeping her from running away. All of them focus on hindering movement. They also remind me of puppet strings, which I find interesting as the only part of her without a “string” is her head. The rest of her body is being used against her will but her mind still remains, despite the slowly forming cracks.

This ties in to the order of the placement too. They take her hands first as a metaphor of them leading her down this awful path via their grooming and also to do some of the less than holy acts she describes in her second verse. Then they take her torso, her body, to use for their enjoyment. Lastly they take her legs now that she’s doubting if this is something she’s okay with, if she wants this, so she can’t run away from it. But again, notice that they never take her head, something she herself remarks on in her last verse. They don’t care if they control her thoughts or emotions as long as she’s doing what they want, those don’t matter. Even if she says no, if she says she’s done with this, they own the rest of her, what she says and thinks has no value to them. They tricked her into agreeing while she was young and by the time she realized it was wrong she was already in too deep.

Well, that was depressing. Ask me if you want more thoughts.

@yourboywitch Do you mind if I ask you to weigh in on this? I’m curious what you think

Fuck it, adding more since I can’t help myself.

So I’ve been a fan of this show for years, way before the Broadway version came out, so my first experience with all of these songs was animatics of the original cast recordings.

I know a lot of people prefer the live versions because of the extra emotions, this song especially, but the original recording gives me a vibe I haven’t seen matched by a live performance so far. Samantha Pauly’s version of All You Wanna Do gives me the impression that she hasn’t yet realized how fucked up her life was until the final chorus. The emotions on display are raw and unprocessed, which is understandably quite appealing. It helps you better relate to the character and makes you feel like you are living through this moment with her. But the Cast Recording, the one sung by Aimie Atkinson, gives me the impression of someone who has known for a while.

Samantha’s Howard is scared, she is lashing out in anger, yes, but also fear. Aimie’s Howard shows a subtler kind of anger. She is angry at herself for not realizing sooner, she is angry at her abusers for every time they used her for their own benefit, she is angry at the world for the fact that no one stepped in or said anything, but most of all she is angry that there’s nothing she can do to change it. It was over for her from the very first time she was used and she knows it. It is the anger of defeat, of acceptance. She died powerless and alone, villainized in her death as a temptress just like they did with Anne. And yet even in death, all she is known for is how she was used by the men in her life. Sam’s Howard is the new kid on the block, she is still lashing out because she has not realized the consequences of doing so. She’s almost like a rabid animal, running entirely off of instinct. Aimie’s Howard, on the other hand, has been here long enough for the instinct to have mostly faded away, but not entirely. Those little bits of anger still slip out, the little refusals.

I suppose a better way to phrase it is I see Sam’s Howard running away from the hands still trying to grab her, similar to how many have visualized the end of Anne’s song with her running from the guards. But just like with Anne, this is a fruitless endeavor. Aimie’s Howard knows she has no place to go, but that doesn’t stop the pain and anger she feels. It’s like she’s looking at a tsunami coming down on her, knowing it’s too late to run. Knowing all she can do is stand there and let it happen. But knowing doesn’t stop the fear. All you can do is mask it and accept your fate.

Sorry, that was a mess, I’m still having so much trouble wording my feelings about this song because there are so many in my body right now I need them out
