I genuinely am so glad they lowered the key for Golden for Huntrix’s recent live performances. Just a step is still extremely impressive (G5 instead of A5 is FINE), and like, let’s preserve EJAE’s voice cuz she’s gonna be singing it live a LOT more methinks.

I would like to thank @filmbrainbmb.bsky.social for editing in the blurb about Finn. He was in my theatre circle of friends when this came out, and considering most of us knew him as a Juilliard-bound Shakespeare guy, he was given endless (good-natured) shit about this movie. 😉

The thumbnail for our review of Halloweentown High. The cast poses in the background. I lean to the side with a smile and Phelan holds up some nunchaku. We're dressed as Alan Grant and Ellie Sattler in Jurassic Park. The text reads "NORMAL KIDS IN HIGH SCHOOL"

I went to a big event last week that had very clear social media embargo stuff attached, so I was not gonna post about it till I’m allowed.

But then today I see a pretty big influencer posting pretty openly about it!! So… gah. I don’t know what to do cuz I wanna tell y’all about it. 😂

A Scribd subscription goes a long way. Or purchasing a perusal script from Music Theatre International.

(Nobody cares about this but me) on closer inspection, Baby Saja might be AJ McLean. Fatone & Wahlberg still stand though.

Emily Clark @emilyabclark.bsky.social · 19d

Waffling in my sickened stupor between nonstop news coverage and giving my brain a break with MTV. So surreal and I equate that music video with 9/11 to this day.
