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

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?

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

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...

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.

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

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.
