I… honestly think that the human categories I care about most are the most neurotype loaded ones.
As opposed to those involving shared past experiences which come in second and those involving shared body configurations which come in third and the “being on the same randomly selected soccer team” kind of groupings which come in last.

it’s funny listening to the obcr of les mis and hearing terrence mann trip over the clumsy extraneous conjunctions in “stars” and knowing in subsequent versions they’re like “cut ‘em.” tagging @prudencepaccard because she’s probably the only one who knows what i mean.

this is the least true thing i have ever read in a professional publication
seeing that I can actually perform is making my goal of one day playing Madame Defarge in the Tale of Two Cities musical feel MUCH more attainable
thank you!!!! and same. I don’t think any of us would have been willing to perform it otherwise. my very good friend who made this arrangement (my part and the piano were original, but he composed the backing choral vocals + wrote out some parts for other instruments) was the genius who figured out “stiffed.” It’s so perfect, right???? It has exactly the same feel and sound––arguably better, because you can really relish the “f”––while not being A SLUR. I’m still kind of shocked Marc Blitzstein did that. Maybe he didn’t know it was a slur...a lot of people don’t
thank you for reminding me that mythcreants exists

If you were wondering what the rehearsal clips were for!! I and the rest of the NYC-DSA choir are putting on a cabaret concert in the East Village two Sundays from now. Program includes Weimar-era Brecht/Eisler, The Threepenny Opera, Marc Blitzstein’s The Cradle Will Rock (I have lead vocals!!), IWW songs, the 1937 labor revue Pins and Needles, and a choral arrangement made by me of a Paris Commune song that isn’t “Le Temps des cerises.”

#whaaaaat #I sang with Sing-in-Solidarity in 2018 and over zoom in 2020 #Most blessed time in my life and most wonderful group #We sang the Army Song from Theepenny Opera then #wish I could go but I am on the wrong coast I did the May Day zoom recordings too!!!! My close friend who arranged “El Pueblo Unido” for that also arranged the version of “Joe Worker” I’m soloing on in the rehearsal clips
Y'all are sounding so good!! I can’t wait to hear “Le temps des cerises,” I hope you will make a recording. I live vicariously just through the email notifications for rehearsals.
I actually meant it’s NOT “Le temps des cerises,” it’s a lesser-known song by the same guy (Jean-Baptiste Clément) about the Bloody Week
also we definitely will make a recording! and I’m glad you have such great memories of the choir and are staying in touch
