sge - scleri vari: l'accademia del muori

22. SGE Hamilton

39_ Blow us all away

STEFAN
Meet the latest graduate of The school for good!
I prob'ly shouldn't brag, but, dag, I amaze and astonish!

The scholars say I got the same virtuosity and brains as my pops!

The ladies say my brain's not where the resemblance stops!

I'm only nineteen but my mind is older
Gotta be my own man, like my father, but bolder

I shoulder his legacy with pride

I used to hear him say

That someday

I would-

ENSEMBLE:

Blow us all away

STEFAN
Ladies, I'm lookin for a Mr. Wesley Eacker

Made a speech last week, our Fourth of July speaker

He disparaged my father's legacy in front of a crowd

I can't have that, I'm making my father proud

KIKO
I saw him just up Broadway a couple of blocks

He was goin' to see a play

STEFAN
Well, I'll go visit his box

BEATRIX
God, you're a fox

STEFAN
And y'all look pretty good in ya' frocks

How 'bout when I get back, we all strip down to our socks?

( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

BOTH:

Ok!

COMPANY:

Blow us all away!

[Vabbe, alla fine trova il tizio e lo sfida a duello]

STEFAN
My name is Stefan
I am a poet

I'm a little nervous, but I can't show it

I'm sorry, I'm a Pendragon with pride

You talk about my father, I cannot let it slide

Mister Eacker! How was the rest of your show?

WESLEY
I'd rather skip the pleasantries

Let's go

Grab your pistol

STEFAN
Confer with your men

The duel will commence AFTER we count to ten

ENSEMBLE:

Count to ten!

STEFAN
Look 'em in the eye, aim no higher

Summon all the courage you require

Then slowly and clearly aim your gun towards the sky-

ENSAMBLE
One, two, three, four, five, six, seven-

*bang* :'(((((

+c'è Stay Alive ma non mi va. Alla fine mainagioia perché il figlio della Tagatha crepa.

42_ It's Quiet Uptown (dove Aggie perdona Ted per essere una gran testa di pineapple)

AGGIE

ELIZA:

It's quiet uptown

COMPANY
Forgiveness. Can you imagine?

Forgiveness. Can you imagine?

If you see him in the street, walking by her

Side, talking by her side, have pity

Poi blabla. Praticamente ci sono le elezioni e Ham/Tedros si rifiuta di votare per Rhian/Burr, preferendo invece Rafal/Jefferson perché secondo lui ha le idee più convinte. Burr/Rhian se la prende e lo sfida a duello. Prima di andare a combattere, Ted/Ham dedica una canzone a Eliza/Aggie, Best of Wifes and Best of Women.
Rhian/Burr, pur essendo un pessimo tiratore, lo centra nel ventre e lo uccide, pentendosi subito dopo.
E poi... beh, vi lascio al video, perché non riesco proprio ad andare avanti.
Qui Eliza/Aggie cerca di tenere viva la memoria di Ted/Ham dandosi da fare, ma chiedendosi sempre se ha fatto abbastanza perché la sua storia sia raccontata, e non vedendo l'ora di rivedere il marito in paradiso.

PREPARATEVI A PIANGERE.

WHO LIVES, WHO DIES, WHO TELLS YOUR STORY.

Cosa ne pensate *si asciuga le lacrime*? Vi ho fatto incuriosire su Hamilton?
