Second Tanz album promo event

[winter]

I went to this one just for the purpose of taking pictures, but sort of ended up getting an autograph on my programme and an autographed poster ;) No idea how that happened...

Alas, this was a much smaller event and with a shorter before-signings part - there was only Lukasz Dziedzic, Malwina Kusior (Sarah) and for some reason Marcin Wortmann (second-cast Alfred) instead of Jakub Moleda. No dancers this time, and no Jakub Wocial (Herbert) - apparently this was only decided yesterday. Curses. The light was much better, with actual sunlight, and I wanted to get more Herbert photos!


Not!Krolock (Pawel Podgorski) is infectiously happy and a great MC :) I need to attend at least one show (Tanz or Cats) with him, because I'm sure he's got great energy onstage.



Not!Alfred. Compare what he looks like when playing a vampire. Quite a dramatic difference there ;)



Sarah, whose dress kept falling off her. I really think she's lost some weight. I still want that dress, mind you.





Signing things for people. Note ring and tie pin. Shiny!



Same, in closeup. This needs an icon and a caption of "poetry is hard".



Happy fun vampire. Actually he was a happy fun vampire all the time, but tried to keep a serious expression. Sometimes that didn't quite work ;)



I believe this is the "Enough of those closeups already. Get your autograph and go away plzkthx" face. Eep.





And my main goal in attending today's promo - ta-dah!

Lukasz Dziedzic & Malwina Kusior - Na Orbicie Serc (Total Eclipse of the Heart)

Live, in costume and in character. With the most charming vampire bite ever at the end. Alas, people jostled me all the time and a lamp got in the way, but I think it didn't come out too badly. Thanks to hotbeast for allowing me to maneouvre :D

eeee! love the pics.. and the video is awesome, too :D

[winter]

I kind of got in people's faces with the camera, but who cares :P

Plus, rumour has it the last promo event next week won't happen, so that was my last chance.

Stanowczo wolę Marcina jako Alfreda :) Nie wiem co w Kubie Molędzie jest, czy to głos, czy wada wymowy- coś mi przeszkadza. No i dobrze wydawało mi się że Marcin Wortmann jest tym upiornym królem :))))
Łukasz Dziedzic oprócz kwiatków na plakatach rozdawał piękne uśmiechy, przynajmniej ja dostałam jeden. Paweł P. przechodził samego siebie gdy poszłaś. Fani dziczeli, ochroniarz zganiał towarzystwo a ono pchało się spowrotem z jeszcze większym uporem. Do tej pory czuję dwa dołki na plecach po tamtej pannie co stała za mną w kolejce po autografy. Chyba się nie kontrolowała :))))

mój plakat już wisi w antyramie przy wejściu :D Teraz muszę wyczaić jak skłonić do podpisu Kubę/Herberta.

[winter]

No ja tam wole Marcina wlasnie jako krola Ubu ;) Glos ma dobry, ale wysokie nuty czasami kuleja, albo moze tylko dzisiaj mial chrypke. Swoja droga bede musiala kiedys pojsc na druga obsade, moze jesli na jesieni Wampiry wroca, to zobacze zarowno Marcina, jak i Pawla...

Zawsze mozna sie na Kube zaczaic przy drzwiach dla aktorow albo umowic wstepnie przez maila ;) Clare chyba dogada sie na takie spotkanie (znowu cos dla niego maluje), wiec w razie czego jak tobie nie wyjdzie, to moze w ten sposob uzyskamy autograf. Ja bardzo zaluje, ze go dzisiaj nie bylo, sliczne by mi zdjecia wyszly...

Sara też "kulała" wokalnie, ale to przez kubaturę pomieszczenia. Na scenie mogą popuścić wodzy swoim głosom, nie w ciasnym Empiku. Przynajmniej takie odniosłam wrażenie :). Też chciałabym zobaczyć drugą obsadę. No i cóż Marcinowi pozostało? Nie może być Alfredem to chociaż fajnym upiorem będzie ;)

Zerkałam na klipy z Austrii. Może do von Krolocka przekonałabym się ( charyzma, bo nie głos), ale do reszty- NIE. Sara sprawia wrażenie ofiary przemocy w rodzinie wyciągniętej w środku nocy z ośrodka pomocy, Herbert wygląda jak esesman w koszuli ciotki Brunhildy, a Alfred jest mocno przechodzony. Wiem, że jakość obrazu i dzwięk są parszywe, ale dają mi ogólnie pojęcie jak to tam wygląda. Wolę nasze wampiry. Stanowczo :D.

z tym czjeniem się o 11 w nocy to tak trochę nie bardzo... Może przed spektaklem, tylko że będę musiała jeździć z tym plakatem przez cały dzień- do pracy i po pracy do teatru. Ale jestem otwarta na propozycje:)

[winter]

Zawsze mozesz do Kuby napisac i bardzo ladnie poprosic o wyjscie przed spektaklem na moment ;)

A z wiedenskimi wampirami sie zgadzam co do reszty obsady. Barton jest cudo (glos w tych klipach jest mocno zwalony, ale mam trzy plyty...), reszta do piachu :P Herbert szczegolnie nasz a ich to niebo a ziemia. Nikt, kto nie widzial naszych Wampirow, nie zrozumie szalenia za Herbertem :D

GUH. GUUUUUUUUUUUUUH. Pretty.

[winter]

I gather you like? :P

[fyrie.livejournal.com]

HIs eyes are ridiculously pretty. Really, really ridiculously pretty.

[winter]

I still have no idea how he can make them throw sparks at will. The guy needs his own eye-glimmer sound effects.

[fyrie.livejournal.com]

I have a sneaking suspicion I shall be collecting a second VK when I see this chap live. (And I still find it terribly amusing that I so blatantly channelled Vienna!Krolock after seeing barely a video and a half)

[winter]

I shall allow myself a cackle or two if you do. Because dammit, why should I be the only one stuck with artistic!emo!proudful!VK? And just you wait until you see him interact with Herbert :D

[fyrie.livejournal.com]

Bad enough to have a preteen!VK, a late-30s!VK and a newly-turned!VK... did I mention you are an ebil ebil wench?

[winter]

Once or twice. You have a preteen!VK? Since when?

[fyrie.livejournal.com]

Apparently, when his bitch of a mother showed up, 11 year old VK started lurking. With his eccentric old man. Who may or may not have been a very good spy. No one knows if that rumour is true. And VK senior is smiling amiably.

[winter]

*blinks* I think I'd be interested in meeting VK senior. Though I'm sure his shade is rather bemused by what his son & grandson got up to later on.

[fyrie.livejournal.com]

Everyone thought he was a dashing adventurer, off doing daring deeds, but when asked, he produces rather tattered old maps and books of business and beams like they're his kids. So, people started assuming he was just a rather dopey old chap who got a bit too much sun while travelling and making business connections on behalf of parts of Europe.

Turns out assumptions could be rather... wrong. He's definitely not as dim as people assume and he and his son share a rather fascinating intellect that no one else seems to get. VK's mother is infuriated by the fact dad and son can talk meaningless nonsense to one another. She doesn't realise they can understand each other completely ;) VK thinks he has the coolest dad in the world :D

[winter]

VK's mind, then, but without the drive and the pride that come from his mother? :) I think I could get to like this guy, a lot. What did he think of his son's occult interests?

[fyrie.livejournal.com]

He was very liberal about it, because alchemy intrigued him (not just for the "ooh, look! Blowing up stuff with chemicals!" either, though he did like the finer aspects of that kind of thing) but VK's experimentation with darker aspects only came into play after dad was long dead and Lise just shortly in the ground.

[winter]

And he never tried talking VK into pursuing... uh, whatever line of business it was that VK senior was in? ;) According to what you've thrown me, VK didn't do much except gallivate all over Europe until dad kicked the bucket and the title passed to him.

[fyrie.livejournal.com]

I think his... services were no longer required when Junior went off to be a student and whathaveyou and by the time Johannes came home, dad could see the potential in him, but knew the dangers too well to want to risk his son for them. I think his cover was blown at some point, which means he was probably on the Most Wanted list or equivalent thereof.

I think that could be one of the major reasons he's such a recluse now - doesn't want to draw attention to himself and thus, his family. I have a suspicion he's still a code-breaker and whatnot and lets the boy help him, on a vow of silence, but he's smiling amiably, chewing on a bit of grass and insisting he hasn't a clue what I'm talking about :D

[winter]

That would make a lot of sense. Would he be the first Graf von Krolock, then, with the title created for his services to the Empire? *also fangirls him quietly*

(I think my VK is the fifth or sixth Graf. Enough lineage to be utterly stuck up about it.)

[fyrie.livejournal.com]

I think he was given the title and looked at it and went "wtf are you doing, you morons? You call this low-key retirement?" - but it gave him a big shiny castle, which served to entice the laydees almost as much as his reputation and the myth surrounding him.

He really loved his library, though. After years of being on the edge of danger, almost constantly with his life under threat, the idea of falling asleep with a book in his lap and his feet bare in front of the fire was a comfortably charming one.

[winter]

Pity he chose such a confrontational wife, then ;) Or maybe she provided a challenge on the lines of the various nemeses he found himself missing. If any devious Frenchmen showed up to assassinate him, she'd probably bully them into changing for dinner.

[fyrie.livejournal.com]

I think he actually settled for her because of the directness. He found it novel and amusing to have someone approach and announce that she wished to make his acquaintance. Too much cloak-and-dagger stuff meant he was bored of intrigue, especially regarding himself. He retired to escape from that.

Plus, she could be a formidable weapon, when unleashed. And no one would ever suspect that a notorious spy would but such a bullied and down-trodden husband :D Even when marrying, he subconsciously arranges his situation to his best advantage,

[winter]

A match made in somewhere, for sure. Plus, good genetic combination, judging by the offspring ;)

He and VK weren't that close though, were they?

[fyrie.livejournal.com]

VK idolised his father, but VK Senior wasn't exactly sure what to do with kids. He tended to be very formal and cordial with them and only when Johannes busted into the library and started spending time with him did he realise they were more than just miniature people. Plus, he always treated Johannes like an adult, which had a profound effect on the boy. He spoke to him as an equal, rather than patronisingly, and that only made VK adore him all the more. I think he saw Johannes as his chief minion :D

[winter]

More teacher than father, perhaps? ;)

It's interesting to see how that parental example morphed into VK's complete devotion to Herbert once he had both only one child to devote his attention to, and had to replace the mother's love as well...

[fyrie.livejournal.com]

For the most part, but there were moments where Senior and Junior could match VK & Herbert. Especially when VK is in the library and he and dad have been studying and he's falling asleep on his book. Dad gently lifts him, barely rousing him, carrying him to a nook tucked away in the library, where he's got a make-shift bed. VK clutches at dad's hand and tells him not to go away, because he'll get lost in such a big library, so dad gently arranges his son in his arms and lets him sleep there.

There wasn't much like that, but it was enough to make VK savour every instant.

[winter]

I could see him hungry for this affection and promising himself to provide it to Herbert whenever asked for, or without demand at all :)

[fyrie.livejournal.com]

Exactly :D Dad wasn't the best father in the world, but he was one of the most interesting and smartest people VK ever knew. He has and always shall idolise him.

Happy fun vampire is love <3
It's weird (but in a good way) how he doesn't lose his majestic greatness while smiling so cutely ^^

[winter]

He even smiles in character :D

And btw, still on for 2PM tomorrow, right? Coffee Heaven next to the Atlantic cinema on Chmielna.
