Not me thinking fall is immediately associated with the ‘fall’ in spies are forever
Me, before Fall: God, I can't wait for the Fall, best season <3 Me, during the Fall: Nothing matters and there is no happiness in this world...

THE GAY SPIES SHOULD TOTALLY GROW OLD TOGETHER AND BE THE SWEET OLD MEN DOWN THE STREET AJFJAKODNA
All I know is that in multiple livestreams, when the chat mentioned it, Joey said that they would want to recreate saf first with a bigger cast and budget and stuff before this. So idk if it’s a joke but they at least said that
HEY DOES ANYONE KNOW WHAT THE FUCK HAPPENED TO THIS???
Couldn't stop thinking about Spies Are Forever since seeing it live in London sooo
I figured out what specific time window it's set in!
We know that at the start of the show Cynthia is on the phone with Nixon and refers to him as Vice President
Weeellll thanks to my partner laughing their ass off when I showed them and them then questioning the historical accuracy of the joke, we then looked when/if Richard Nixon ever was Vice president
And he was! Under Dwight D. Eisenhower, whose presidency ran from january 20 1953 - january 20 1961
(This might be common knowledge, but I'm not american so whooo to me for learning something new)
JFK was elected right after, which is in line with the historical accuracy of saf, since at the end of the show, we again see Cynthia at the phone, this time with President Kennedy
Here's a nice chart for better visualisation:
Also! In the first phonecall she has with Nixon, she refers to an election he lost!
(Again very well may be common knowledge, but my non-american ass doesn't know SHIT)
So to my partner: Spies Are Forever is wonderfully historically accurate :)
To everyone else: the play takes place over 5-6 days, so using the 20th of january as point zero, with a margin of ± 6 days, we can say that the main plot of Spies Are Forever takes place sometime between january 14 1961 and january 26 1961!
Tl;dr Spies Are Forever takes place over the course of 5-6 days between January 14 1961 - January 26 1961

HIW WAS SPIES?????
IT WAS INCREDIBLE!!!! OH MY GOD!!!
I’m using the ask as an excuse to ramble a bit. But here are my thoughts after attending the evening show.
Honestly spies was such a fantastic experience for me, from all the people I met to the actual performance itself (I refuse to call it a concert- they advertised it as such but so much of it was acted out that it because a fully fledged performance).
All of the actors sang beautifully and absolutely nailed the acting, which is highly impressive considering this is their first time with the script.
I met so many people who I had previously met at innit, multiple artist mutuals and a bunch more peeps that knew me for my artwork. I came with around 80 of my own prints and walked away with none! I also received a plethora of artwork from other people and a hoard of bracelets.
The wonderful @thelesbiandeli gifted me a spare program signed by the Tin Brothers themselves! Thank you so much again for that! I then managed to get the rest of the cast to sign my program at stage door. The Tin Boys themselves did not do any signatures at stage door, however they did hand out some left over signed posters. I managed to get the final one from Brian.
It was just an incredible performance. You really have to have watched SAF to fully understand/appreciate the show as lots of parts were cut down for time, with Joey and Brian acting as narrators (or the characters themselves narrating parts). It was highly comedy based, with over dramatisation playing into moments where in the YT vid it cuts away- such as when Oliver Ormson (Owen) had to essentially slowly fall to the floor and crawl into position to show he slipped on the banana peel (YES THEY USED A REAL BANANA PEEL). Or when Jak Malone (Dr Baron Von Nazi) was stabbed in the back, to get off the stage he stood up, did dramatic and overly preformy bows while everyone cheers, to then strut off stage- all while Curt and Tati watched (“what the hell just happened??? -Curt). Despite the overall comedic take of the whole show the staircase scene was indeed still filled with emotions.
Overall was just an phenomenal time, and it would have made a fantastic digital ticket I would buy immediately.
(Tumblr is really not liking my trying to upload the spy dance so you can watch it here)
