If you’re following them, then you already know.

Joel Granger and Patrick Whitbread, former members of the Book of Mormon AU/NZ tour, have been posting videos of them recreating iconic scenes from movies as suggested by their friend Naomi Price (who is also a very talented and popular performer in Australia) while they’re in self-isolation. Last night they asked for people to send suggestions for their last few scenes. I sent four suggestions and Joel responded, letting me know that all of them were excellent and heavily contended. They have been posting them every two days and I’m dying to see if any of my suggestions made it.

In the meantime please see either Joel’s or Patrick’s IGTV’s to view these masterpieces.

y’all just ever start a real long conversation about ships and it turns into an rp that lasts like over a week? bc same

Smoke & Mirrors - AO3

Smoke and Mirrors - Chapter 1 - Broadway-Honey (BespokeSuits) - The Book of Mormon - Parker/Stone/Lopez [Archive of Our Own]

The night before the wedding, Connor falls back into old habits. The choices he’s making certainly wouldn’t please his fiancé and yet he doesn’t seem to care about that. It feels too good, too freeing, for him to be encouraged to stop. How long will that feeling last?

Chapter Two: Behind Closed Doors - Now Posted!

They make it back to Kevin’s room. Behind closed doors, what you think is exactly what happens.

The Book of Mormon closed last night here in Australia. I saw the show 16 times in total (including shows from last year). I wanted to share some pictures with y’all of Joel Granger and I. He’s one of the nicest performers I’ve ever met and he really kills it as Elder McKinley.

And as an added bonus:

Blake Bowden (Elder Price) and I!

Connor and Kevin stay up one night (before curfew of course) after all the other elders go to sleep and just talk and get to know each other better

Connor admits that his childhood dream was to be a Disney Prince at Disney World and Kevin’s eyes light up and gushes about all his childhood trips to Disney and Connor says he’s never been and Kevin nearly screams at him “I’LL TAKE YOU AFTER OUR MISSION”

And after that is when he realizes he has a bad crush on Elder McKinley

I want to write a fic on this so bad now!

DO IT! I’D READ THE FUCK OUTTA THAT

I want this very badly!!!

reblog if you’re gay, fully believe in mcpriceley, or wish only the best for the people in the musical theater industry

A Goddamn PSA:

I saw Book of Mormon again tonight because I was taking my best friend to see it for the first time. Throughout majority of Act One AND Act Two, this asshole couple next to me kept talking. I don’t mind a bit of talk, so long as it’s quiet and/or you have a valid reason (like explaining something someone didn’t understand). However, this couple was talking loud enough that my friend sitting next to me heard them, and the usher who was a metre or two away heard them. By the time I got fed up during Act One, it was almost over and I decided to let it go. They then proceeded to talk during every song and by the time I Am Africa rolled around, I turned to them and asked them to be quiet. I was staring at this man and he just stared straight ahead and ignored me. Guess what? They continued to fucking talk and I was ready to throw hands.

TLDR: unless you have a reason or you’re super quiet, don’t fucking talk through a show. Learn some fucking theatre etiquette. I paid to hear the performers, not you.
