The Wildest Musical You've Never Heard Of

[@jayp1x192]

24:32 No no, you were right, Byron is very much in love with Jasper. Now, in Byron's defense, Fay never told him that Jasper was his grandfather (and Edgar died, so he couldn't have told him either). As far as Byron knew, Jasper was just some guy who lived in their house.

[@remnants9974]

Someone really should have told him the doll housed the soul of his own grandfather but I guess they never expected him to develop a romantic fixation for it. Although it's a bit funny that it never occurred to him the doll may have some relation to him, because how many would keep around a doll that housed the soul of a random person? (Maybe... more than I expect)

[@bridgetmctavish1121]

So Paul Shapera actually did do a Q&A just before the atompunk album came out and addressed this. If memory serves, Byron didn't know Jasper was his grandpa??? But also, Shapera did genuinely intend for it to be a replacement for fatherly love. In a moment of absolute hilarity, it wasn't until that moment on stage when someone asked him about it that he realized right then and there that he accidentally wrote it in a way that could be preeetty hardcore misconstrued. Bless the audience, too, nobody really seemed to have the heart to tell him that it was the *common* belief that it'd been intentionally written to look very much like an actual ship. This poor man clearly doesn't go onto any sort of internet fandoms nearly enough.

I'm a simple man. I see Dolls of New Albion, and I click. Since you mentioned TMA, I just gotta share this knowledge that made me do an old-fashioned fannish "squee" when I heard it: _Jessica Law, the voice actor for Nikola Orsinov, IS IN A PAUL SHAPERA ALBUM._ She plays a character in the album "Nash Harding and the Secret of the Twisted Tower". She's in only one song, I think, but she's there!

[@hydrategea]

[@lalas181]

​@@hydrategeaOh, I'm very aware! That was the first production of it I watched.

[@mixofreak]

Prepare to dive down, down, down, into the rabbit hole of the Shaperaverse. Dolls of New Albion: A Steampunk Opera came out in 2012. Since then, over 35 albums (plus a few predating it) have come out, a few books, a podcast, and in July a cabaret live-show just wrapped up the story from the first album chronologically till now... and Paul Shapera is going on to the next story (still connected to all the original albums, but without the same Posthumans) with a space opera.

@@Luciachan23 Edgar is really petty and vindictive to the point of "evil". He's straightforward with how you hate him.

Oh man this was a (welcome) jumpscare to see on my reccs. As someone who has been deeply hyperfixated on all of Paul Shapera's works (the Shaperaverse) for quite some time, I'm excited to watch this. There's a ton of stuff under his belt, all interconnected in some way or another and it's all so very good. (And if anyone is looking to get into it, the first part of the Shaperaverse has just wrapped up and we're getting ready to enter a new era, his upcoming Space Opera set far in the future. Be warned. There's /a lot/ of stuff to listen to, to Get everything.)

I can't say how much i love this opera , it's just so creepy , weird and ... relatable , i mean , yeah Annabel IS crazy but i can't say i don't relate to her and all the drama about parents who just want results , and the way the story interconects and the songs are composed , it's just too addictive . I'm not much into that shaperaverse but someday , maybe someday , i'll listen to his other works .

woah i wasn’t expecting to see new albion mentioned out in the wild, especially from a creator i’ve only started following recently?? i have yet to watch the video but this is gonna be real fun i think :)! i like some of the later shaperaverse musicals better but DoNA still slaps. music

[@tala_icaronycteris]

update: it was indeed very fun!! i got jumpscared by gunpowder tim/tim ledsam (from the band the mechanisms who did narrative musical albums in a similar fashion) as edgar, i completely forgot he was in that one production?? still wild to me!! anyway the mcallisters are such a dumpsterfire in such a compelling way. great call to use jasper as the audience conduit because the story is soooo extremely wild from his perspective. he was just some guy!! he didn’t ask for any of this!!

It's amazing to hear more people learn about the Shaperaverse.

Aaand I'm planning on jumping back in in a different play style, this one more the Ballad of Lost Hollow. Edit: Also you'll be happy to know in the campaign Byron was dragged into the flames of his burning house by a Dollified Fay, off screen. The party learns about it over the radio.

I just listened to the whole album/opera again yesterday, maybe for the tenth time since I came across it years ago, and it still blows my mind how good it is. Every other song is a banger, and the story is both unique, touching, and covers some of the most fundamental topics of human existence. Still one of my favorite albums of all time. I'd be so happy to some day see a live performance, and I'm glad it is getting more of the recognition it so well deserves.
