My Slime Knows It’s Today on Tour

I Know It’s Today from Shrek the Musical National Tour - 2024

I'm happy to say I saw her in person when I went to watch Shrek the Musical

the puppets… it’s cruel

[@grace5033]

I saw the casting announcements on the tour website and was so mad they didn't cast age-appropriate actors for young and teen Fiona (I didn't know there would be puppets, it didn't say). I don't know what would be worse: puppets, or just 3 women all roughly the same age in the same costume meant to be a 7, 17, and 27-year-old (which is what I thought it was gonna be when I saw the website). I heard the non-equity Waitress tour used a puppet for Lulu but the equity tour used an actual child actress, so maybe this tour is non-equity??? Yeah, totally wish they cast an actual kid/teen like on Broadway, but I'm still looking forward to seeing it in September (was supposed to see it today but the dates got pushed back)

takes out the complications of having underage cast members

@@grace5033this tour is indeed non equity so having actual children in the show wouldn’t be possible unless there was a lot of agreements, negotiations and legal stuff

@@athenaloki9967 good to know, thanks! (still excited to see it though, the show as a whole won't be ruined by 1 scene)

@@athenaloki9967they were casting children 8-14 I was thinking of auditioning but I didn’t, I know that Non-Equity don’t get a lot of auditions for children roles

Puppets makes no sense especially when theyre a different race than the actual actress. And whats the deal with her costume????? I mean,that silver corset is an eye sore. Shame SHAME on the creative team behind this production!

[@ZTH.04]

Yeah although the puppets seem like a unique touch, they could have gave the same respect as they did for previous tour with having an actual child and teen

[@andresmaldonado8935]

@@ZTH.04well it was an non equity show so having child actress would be hard

[@ZTH.04]

@@andresmaldonado8935 Makes sense, I do agree with that

Okay why tf was teen Fiona saying 9058 when adult Fiona was said 8423??????

[@user-qn5bu5gb3m]

this show has the budget of an elementry school puppet show

[@harmonicdreams3279]

@@user-qn5bu5gb3m such a shame too, that Fiona is actually extremely talented. She deserves a better production

Dear lord... the Puppeteers are so distracting... I won't say something about the Race swap... 🙈
