I don't follow people under 18; I try to tag for common triggers and adultish content. (You can't make me use the citrus scale though.)

And with the shoutyng, whan the song was do That foules maden at here flyght awey, I wok, and othere bokes tok me to, To reede upon, and yit I rede alwey. I hope, ywis, to rede so som day That I shal mete some thyng for to fare The bet, and thus to rede I nyl nat spare. – Geoffrey Chaucer, The Parlement of Fowles

Twelfth Night opera fantasy cast because apparently there is no major opera based on it, which is a CRIME, and also apparently I’m falling down the Shakespearean Rabbit Hole again:

Viola (alias Cesario): Léa Desandre

Sebastian: Iestyn Davies (listen. countertenor Sebastian. It makes sense. LISTEN)

Olivia: Angel Blue

Orsino: Artur Ruciński

Feste: could see this going two ways—if baritone, then Simon Keenlyside, if bass-baritone, then Christian van Horn

Malvolio: John Relyea

Maria: Isabel Leonard

Sir Andrew Aguecheek: Lawrence Brownlee

Sir Toby Belch: Ambrogio Maestri

Antonio: Matthew Polenzani

#everything about this is perfect #especially #JOHN RELYEA #AS MALVOLIO #he'd be so amazing #also mezzo viola/countertenor sebastian is perfect #also ANGEL BLUE
