1. 24601 isn’t just a series of numbers to you
It’s EVERYTHING. (Shout out to Colm Wikinson, the OG Valjean.)
2. You have a flair for the, eh, dramatic
You’re just a passionate person, OK?
3. You have a list of shows you dream of one day seeing on the West End or on Broadway
4. And if you’ve been you’ve never, ever stopped talking about it
“Well, when I went to see Book of Mormon on Broadway, it wa-”
“It was brilliant. Yes, we know. Thank you Denise.”
5. You know basically everything about Hamilton without even setting foot in the theatre
Of course Lin-Manuel Miranda should EGOT. He’s a genius.
6. You have a private Spotify playlist made up entirely of showtunes
Or maybe not private? No harm in it.
7. Which you sing in the car and in the shower
It doesn’t matter what anyone else says about your voice. In your car, you are Idina Menzel.
8. You’re one of the few people in Ireland who actually cares about the Tony Awards
Bigger than the Oscars, TBH.
9. And you are HUGELY suspicious of all the film adaptations
Yet cried like a baby as Anne Hathaway warbled I Dreamed A Dream, all the same.
10. You have at least one friend who is as crazy about musicals as you are
Your duet partner <3
11. When you’re together, the conversation becomes an impenetrable mess of musical references
“So what’s your favourite overture?” “Ooh. Phantom?”
12. And you’re certain that someday soon, Andrew Lloyd Webber will discover your talent
Then, you will become the Broadway star you were always meant to be. Soon, child. Soon.
