@not-like-the-restaurant submitted: I forgot he had a broadway show. I was watching Enchanted when suddenly… Lestat lmao
There’s our boy!
Hello! I hope you’re fine! :3 I would like to know, where could I get “Lestat” ‘s musical? I haven’t seen it yet, and I really would like to ^. ^ thank you for all!
Thank u, yes, doing well, same to you *u*
DO I HAVE SMTG FOR U? Yes, yes I do. (ﾉ´ヮ´)ﾉ*:✧
The quality isn’t that hot but this here’s the entire show (pssst download them just in case they gets taken down!):
Opening night on Broadway, NYC, version:
San Francisco version:
MOST PPL I’ve talked to say they prefer the SF version. I gotta watch the SF version bc I saw the NYC version and it was apparently stripped of alot of the awesome that the SF version had, sadly, and that’s one of the reasons ppl suggest for why it was so short-lived ;A; It was painful to watch. I remember one joke, Gabrielle to Lestat, smtg about childbirth.
@rookhart suggested I add this video “which has the actor who played Armand taking over the role of Lestat. He doesn’t look the part as much, but I’d suggest it if only for the fact that it’s later in the run, and they have Lestat’s transformation scene (and some other things) down much better, some really awesome stuff :)”
If anyone out there has a better quality vid, plz reblog and share w/ the class ^,….,^

Me, 7 pm: I’m gonna go to bed early tonight
Me, 1 am: * belting both parts of “Embrace it” from “Lestat” the musical *
I’ve been thinking about this a lot but i would LOVE Lestat as Hedwig (from Hedwig and the Angry Inch)?? Maybe as some kind off broadway production or even just conceptually. Theres a lot of parallels that can be drawn between the two and i just think itd be a perfect fit for him. If you’re familar with Hedwig I’d love to hear any thoughts you (or anyone) have on this!
You know, the first thing that comes to mind is that I would think that the Lestat musical could have been (and maybe the producers originally wanted it to be) as glamorous, heartbreaking, dramatic, and beautiful as the Hedwig stage production! But for many reasons, it wasn’t :-
I’ve seen the Hedwig movie several times and I love it, I also saw the stage production when the original Hedwig actor, John Cameron Mitchell, came back to do it again (2015, I think?). It was updated with more current references (Grindr or Tinder were mentioned), it was hilarious and angsty and Lestat would have loved to see it, if not be in it! ;D
But I also feel that there are many sensitive topics here. A major one being the gender issues, a very big element in Hedwig, and as I am not well-informed on the subject, I don’t feel that it’s appropriate for me to address it too much, but I’ll open this to anyone in the comments/reblogs on that.
As characters, yes, a lot of parallels can be drawn between Hedwig and Lestat, an essay could be written about that, I’ll open this to anyone in the comments/reblogs on that, too.
TL;DR: As this is a fandom blog for entertainment I’ll just say that Lestat’s an actor at heart and I think the role of Hedwig would be a challenge he’d love to tackle, for all the sensitive topics and for how much he would
probably relate to Hedwig’s story.
Sooo many good quotes that I think Lestat would find relatable:
- Love the front of me, honey! – bc it’s Hedwig’s damage in the front. Lestat would be talking about his own damage (in the varying ways it manifests depending on your headcanon).
- Eve just wanted to know shit.
- The road is my home, and my home, the road. And when I think of all the people I have come upon in my travels, I cannot help but think of the people who have come upon me. Tommy, can you hear me? From this milkless tit you have sucked the very business we call show!
- I have been having the most wonderful time with – do you remember that 45-year-old divorcee with the hair and the mean look? She came up to me after the show and I thought, “This lady wants a piece of me.” So I didn’t know what to do. I was alone, I had nothing in my hand, I was going to go for the eyes. She came at me from both sides, somehow, and she just gave me a fucking hug. She gave me a fucking hug. Can you figure? Can you fucking beat that? She gave me – also got a few drinks from it, as well.
I think the Origin of Love song works for both of them, too…
Because of encouragement from my partner, I’m gonna start posting my VC art here!

Dearest @sheepskeleton, I thought that you might get a kick out of this. This is me, in Vienna, wearing your Armand shirt, about to watch a musical about Vivaldi, a redhead from Venice who was forced into priesthood when all he wanted to do was make art, starring Drew Sarich, who played Armand on Broadway. xD I had a pretty good day! ❤
re: OMG this is amazing and I am SO getting a kick out of it! ❤ thank you for sharing! ❤
