I love how the song goes from a really boppin song but then gets really dark and you captured that perfectly from 2:55-3:08

This Charon's vocals tho....perfect for Charon anyway

[@like.clarkwork]

obs he is, but Rob Rolicki had to gender swap him for reasons.

[@goodjobeli]

They changed it just because the song fitted her voice better (and the fact there's like 8 people in the cast)

[@adsn854]

OH MY GODS! this was so GOOD! I saw d.j. Cerberus and almost burst laughing, then I saw Percy, Annabeth, and grover at the end and teared up A bit. This was REALLY great! 👍

[@charpancakes]

Well, the ghosts are really cute. But when she was pointing out what each the kids wanted and how they weren't going to get those things I cried.

[@JoaoPaulo-ot4ez]

And also when she sings that line " thinking they'll save a loved one from below ". It was to Percy, I guess.

[@HockeyMiner]

"They're a bunch of little white kids" "Chris! I knew you were gonna say that"

[@prettypjohnson4970]

Love the reference to their god parents on their coffins. water is Posidean, the owl represents Athena, and the pan flute represents Pan.

[@jacobpatton7587]

That moment when the musical based on a book has a scene with far more psychological torment than the book itself. Seriously, the trio get the underworld equivalent of a mock execution.

He is but a couple things were changed in the musicals. I'm glad that the characters kept their personalities (including those of the other campers and not just keeping them in the background like the movies did) and that the overall plot was kept though.

[@peridotchild457]

Bucephalus Kazukulele True, but Charon was still portrayed as appearing as someone of the male gender. Can’t say I don’t like the twist of the original story, but that is still what the myths would say.

[@yunamchill9169]

This is better than I thought it would be, lol. I don't mind Charon being a girl, it's about the atmosphere that the song is supposed to create, not the voice a character is supposed to have. Stop stereotyping and expand your range of comfort a bit, y'all... Awesome addition of the kids being in coffins, it's freaky. My writer self feels delighted/upset that Grover freaks out the most of the three, with tears and all. Interesting choice. Did losing Thalia really traumatize him so much that his perception of death got messed up? Cause I imagine being a kind of nature spirit himself, he knows perfectly well about the nature of life, death and rebirth. But anyways, a suffering lovable character is always a must have at one point of a writer's life. We're sadists...

[@luckyfluf363]

Can I just say... I may be a creep for saying this but, did anyone realize that, while the trio is in the coffins, Annabeth has the calmest reaction? It just made me crack up a little. Percy and Grover are like, "Omg! Let me out of here!", but Annabeth was like, "Well. That's just great. We're trapped." If I think about it, Percy's reaction makes since. The the books, it brought up several times that Percy is claustrophobic. So, freaking out, trying to push the lid of the coffin open to free himself seems like the proper reaction. Just thought I'd point that out! It just looked interesting to me! :3 Reply if you agree!
