#Understudy
I was excited to be assigned to take up work as @magedowser.bsky.social's understudy.

...but I can't help but feel he is not exactly thrilled about this arrangement.

=.=; Now I am down under his desk as he studies.

What a player, what a captain. Watching him grow from understudy to one of the best players in the world over the last five years has been a privilege. I hope Gloucester know how special he is.

On his birthday, remembering Christopher Plummer, General Chang in #StarTrek VI: The Undiscovered Country. He and William Shatner had a long history, starting in the the 1950s when Shatner was his understudy at the Stratford Shakespeare Festival.##TheSoundOfMusic #KnivesOut

honestly... he has proven himself a worthy understudy
They just posted a new clip of New Heights this week and are discussing the listening age that Spotify featured this year. Jason’s listening age is 83. Since Jack is on vacation Jason is clearly filling in as head gaylor.

So... @mchshe.bsky.social related a story to Dermot O'Leary on BBC Radio 2 about Kenneth Williams being Richard Burton's understudy in The Seagull. Turns out... this might have a dram of truth! 🧵

I suspected that my understudy was wearing a clip-on bowtie (gross misconduct) so I snuck into his room to watch him undress (gross misconduct). Now we live as two wandering butler ronin, haunting roadside inns in our tattered tailcoats, begging strangers to let us carry their trays to their tables

Worthy understudy

I think you should, maybe even for this one.

you could still be an understudy, you're a natural

Who cares that we didn't see the lead actor in The Producers when the understudy was such eye candy 😍

I was understudy for Abz and Sean. Nobody could ever tell the difference.

Me, a musical person: "SHE WAS ALSO THE UNDERSTUDY AND THEN LEAD FOR NATALIE IN THE BROADWAY SHOW NEXT TO NORMAL"
Before she became a standout favorite in The White Lotus Season 2, Meghann Fahy almost starred in the debut season as another memorable character.

Also Rob Berman was conducting AND an understudy for Velma went on in Act 2. Chicago is apparently still full of surprises!

Yea she is so good. They all were so good. Did you get Paulo Szot? He was out when I went but his Understudy was great.

I had a dream that I was Ann Jillian’s new understudy in a sparkly production of some sit-com-esque play in a community theater somewhere “out west”

I had to wear her expensive“spiderella” watch as I trailed her and the “hands” were hundreds of wispy spider legs and no way to tell the time.

He waited until the enormous #soliloquy to act

While the audience was engrossed by the performance, he was removing some of the competition

He'd go from understudy to a bit role, but that wasn't good enough

Thankfully, he had plenty of chances to work his way through the cast

they just announced a bunch of dates that Lea is going to be out and her understudy will be performing and one of those dates is our anniversary, I'm stopping at the box office on the way home from the office tomorrow

she's actually just the understudy

It’s a problem that Trump’s understudy J.D. Vance keeps denying. But antisemitism is built into the right-wing political project, and MAGA could make it worse.

Felt like making a bsky bot, but feel it'd be much more fun just to run it myself so be aware for "Daily GD levels" on Bsky (or another name I'll link the account when its made) and if anyone wants to help by being an understudy for when I sleep in, uh DM me on discord (not like you'd want to)

Respect to Franklin Bongjio, Keanu Reeves' understudy as Estragon - Reeves did Act I last night, became ill & couldn't continue. Bongjio did Act II & was apparently brilliant.

I'm biased with this one, but I love Tycho & Drilltooth's first interaction. ANYONE could tell Tycho, Drilltooth, has alternative motivations.

(Additional context, the Demon Redemption Program lasts 2 to 8 years depending on roles your training for, Tycho was in it for 4yrs.)
