Celebrate Musicals Week: The Wrap-Up

Posted on 18:54 by riya
(no, the picture doesn't match the quote, but I just adore this dress, okay? shush.)


"Dear Andre, what a splendid party!"
"The prologue to a great new year!"
"What a night, I'm impressed!"
"Well, one does one's best..."
"Here's to US!"
~Masquerade, Phantom of the Opera

This blog party was fantastic, you guys.  We had a whopping 29 participants featuring 17 different musicals this week, and the posts just kept rolling in.  Due to a severely packed schedule this week, I haven't had time to read everyone's posts (though I did at least skim each and every one and will hopefully be back later to leave comments), but I am so, so thrilled that you all participated and had a good time.  Without further ado, let's have some links!

{Okay, well, a little bit of ado-- just want to remind you that not all of the content in all of these musicals is appropriate for all ages.  I've marked three in particular that are not suitable for a younger audience, but I would ask that you use discretion no matter what.  Also, though I've read and enjoyed most of the posts listed here-- and plan to read the others ASAP-- I cannot necessarily endorse all the content on all the blogs I've linked to, blah blah blah, disclaimer disclaimer disclaimer.  Don't sue me.  Read at your own risk.  There is no lifeguard on duty.  Have fun.}

(in which Amy inserts random Phantom pics that she didn't include in other posts)
  • Una Mariah from Petticoats and Muckboots featured Les Miserables
  • Miss Jane Bennet from Classic Ramblings featured Les Miserables

  • Jess Dunlap at The Diaries of Mannerbee Mansion featured Oliver! and Mary Poppins
  • Indigo Montoya at The Life and Random Thoughts of Indigo Montoya featured Elisabeth {please note that while Indigo is also very discreet and careful in her posts, this musical is also not appropriate for the younger ones.}

  • Ruby Danderfluff at We'll See How This Goes featured Phantom of the Opera
  • Miss Melody Muffin at The Splendor Falls on Castle Walls featured Aida {not recommended for younger viewers, et cetera and so forth, though Melody is of course very careful about what she includes in her posts.}

  • Katherine Sophia at Seek Him First featured Mozart!
  • Rachel and Sarah at Two's Company featured Wicked
  • Katelyn at Bring Your Own Books featured Phantom of the Opera
  • My own posts for the week can all be found here-- and in case you hadn't noticed, I did Phantom.  :D


Due to time constraints and whatnot, a few participants were only able to do the tag-- their links are as follows:

  • Miss Laurie at Old-Fashioned Charm
  • Beast's Belle at Never Grow Up Doll Guide
  • Eowyn at Inklings Press
  • Maddie Rose at The Madd Rose
  • Belle at In My Life
(And if I inadvertently didn't link to you, please leave a comment with your link and I'll add you straightaway!)

In conclusion, thank you all SO VERY MUCH for making this party such a success.  I've received several requests to host another one next year, and while I can't make any promises, I would love to do that... so here's to making Celebrate Musicals Week an annual thing if at all possible!
