Two hundred years ago this week, the Marquis de Lafayette visited Frankfort, Kentucky, as just one of many stops on his “victory” tour of the United States after the Revolutionary War. 

The Marquis, featured in the musical Hamilton as “America’s favorite fighting Frenchman,” was a key figure and ally to the burgeoning United States during the Revolutionary War. Kentucky spared no expense celebrating the “hero of two worlds” at a dinner at the Old State Capital for over 2,000 dollars. That would be almost 65,000 dollars today! 

The dinner hosted important figures from inside and outside of the state, with patriotic speeches delivered throughout.

May 12, 2025 - Marquis de Lafayette's Expensive Dinner (13 of 76)

bolton:
Ms. Darbus, you asked to see me?

darb:
I know you’re busy

bolt:
What do you need, ma’am? Ma’am?

darb:
I wanna give you a word of warning

bolt:
Ma’am, I don’t know what you heard
But whatever it is, Sharpay started it

darb:
I think Troy saw you and me  this morning

bolt:
You’re kidding

darb:
I need a favor

bolt:
Whatever you say, ma’am, I can talk to Troy a little later

darb:
Shh. Talk less 

bolt:
He’ll never guess
I know the situations grim, but I can always gaslight him 

darb:
I think that we should reassess

bolt:
Yes! We’ll find a way. Nothing really has to change

darb:
No, I think it’s best for us if we just call it quits 

bolt:
Ha! That’s a pretty good one

darb:
This is the end We’re breaking up I’m serious

bolt:
I’m sorry, what?

darb:
One last time
Relax, sing a song with me
One last time
Let’s take a break tonight
And we’ll have no choice but to say goodbye
To say goodbye
You and I

bolt:
No, ma’am, why?

darb:
I wanna talk about your family

bolt:
Ma’am, with me and my wife on the verge of divorce, is this the best time

darb:
Don’t wanna be the cause of you and Troy fighting

bolt:
But—

darb:
Get with the program, stop whining
After everything that has occurred
 The ways of your body I have learned

bolt:
As far as the students are concerned
They’ll never know, please don’t leave me alone
Please! One last time
Dribble my balls with me 
One last time
And if we have tonight
Then maybe we won’t have to say goodbye
Goodbye
You and I

darb:
Mr. Bolton, think of your family!

bolt:
No! We’ve done nothing wrong.

darb:
Your son is my starring lead

bolt:
So maybe you could be his new mom
Why do you have to say goodbye?

darb:
If I say goodbye, your family can hold strong
It outlives you when you’re gone
Like the playwrights say:
Theatre is the art form of the present: 
it exists only in the present, and then it's gone.
And It’s quite a performance we gave
You and I are just the present, no future
The curtain is closed, I’m afraid
Take a bow for the performance you gave
One last time

bolt:
One last time

darb:
Alas, that love, whose view is muffled still,
Should, without eyes, see pathways to his will!
Where shall we dine? O me! What fray was here?
Yet tell me not, for I have heard it all.
Here’s much to do with hate, but more with love.
Why, then, O brawling love! O loving hate!
O any thing, of nothing first create!
O heavy lightness! serious vanity!
Misshapen chaos of well-seeming forms!
Feather of lead, bright smoke, cold fire,
sick health!
Still-waking sleep, that is not what it is!
This love feel I, that feel no love in this.
Dost thou not laugh?…
Why, such is love’s transgression.
Griefs of mine own lie heavy in my breast,
Which thou wilt propagate, to have it prest
With more of thine: this love that thou hast shown
Doth add more grief to too much of mine own.
Love is a smoke raised with the fume of sighs;

[Being purged, a fire sparkling in lovers’ eyes;
Being vex’d a sea nourish’d with lovers’ tears:
What is it else? a madness most discreet,
A choking gall and a preserving sweet.]

bolt:
One last time 

ALL WOMEN:
Coach bolton’s gonna bone

darb:
Teach me how to say goodbye

COMPANY:
Coach bolton’s gonna bone

bolt:
You and I

COMPANY:
Coach bolton’s gonna bone

bolt:
Gonna bone

COMPANY:
Coach bolton’s gonna bone

bolt:
East High has its eyes on you

COMPANY:
Coach bolton’s gonna bone

bolt:       	            	COMPANY:
I’m gonna teach you how to
Say goodbye!                      	   Teach you how to say goodbye!
Teach me how to
Say goodbye!                	     	Teach me how!
To say goodbye!
.                                  	     	Say goodbye!
Say goodbye!

One last time!
.                               	            One last time!

Gonna bone!

One Last Time

PowAAA Washer [DEMO]

Troy’s mom:

They say my husband is cheating on me and he’s slipping away
Is that true?
I wasn't aware that was something a husband could do

I'm perplexed, what other women could possibly be in his life?
Let me check his texts!

There’s no other women in town that could capture his heart

😮                                                                
Ms. Darbus?

I know her, that can't be
That's that little hag who sang to me

All those years ago, what was it, ‘05?
That whore man, I’m going to bury him alive

Tensions rise, marriages fall
I should’ve know he wasn’t playing ball

All those times, they had their fun
I will tear my husband into pieces
Then his coaching days are done

Ha ha ha ha ah (maniacal laughter)

Mr. Jack Bolton… good luck

I Know Her (I Know Him)

[ZEKE:]
How does Troy Bolton the star baller
Affectionate boyfriend of the lifeguard
Finder of the summer jobs
Ardently abuse his new promosh
Destroy his reputation?
Welcome, folks, to

[Zeke/Company:]
The Evans administration!

[Zeke:]
Sharpay knows higher-ups, arranges Troy’s scholarship

[Ryan:]
Sharpay is out of control, now this is a dictatorship

[Zeke:]
Sharpay fires Ryan
Privately calls him the f slur in her taunts

[Troy:]
Say what?!

[Zeke:]
Ryan posts on myspace his response

[Ryan:]
Sit down, Shar, you untalented c*unt

[Troy:] (to himself)
Ryan’s not gay…?

[Gabriella:]
You should’ve been at the baseball game
We had a blast

[Ryan:]
It was so fun (ad lib)
Gabriella’s mom makes the best brownies-

[Troy:]
Yeah, I’ve had ‘em. 😡

The Evans Administration (The Adams Administration)

[TROY]
Gabriella…..
Ryan…………..
Brownies?
What is this?

I have been suspicious for the past five minutes
I am finding it so difficult to mind my own business
I noticed you and Ryan are acting very intimate together

[GABRIELLA]
Is that what you think? Are you done?

[TROY]
I know he looks so hot doing his little jazz squares
But beyond that I’m not sure how him and I would compare
To seek another guy, to stray from our relationship
I never thought you’d be the one I’d have this conversation with
A theater kid homewrecking, can’t believe my eyes
Tell me the truth, don’t give me your lies
I hope that you enjoyed him, hope you had your fun
Ya best fess up or we are done done

[GAB]
Troy, how can you say this while you’re running off with Sharpay?

[CHAD, RYAN, ZEKE?]
Sharpay

[GAB]
You know nothing, you haven’t even noticed that Ryan is gay

[THE BOYS]
Is Gay

[GAB]
If Chad can prove I never cheated on you
Do you promise to stop thinking something so untrue?

[CHAD]
No one else was in the room where it happened

[GAB]
Is this okay?

[CHAD]
Um, yes, he said
[RYAN]
Yeah sure whatever

“Look Chad I get that you are too scared to dance
So I think that it’s time to put your fear up to the test
If I win this baseball quest then you and all your friends
Will have to bring your zest to the talent fest”

[TROY]
Whoah

[CHAD]
He courted me
Escorted me away and when he had me at the lockers
That’s when Ryan rewarded me
Orally
It was disorderly
I’m sorry you had to find out this way
But I hope you can support me

As you can see I kept a record of every tryst in my little diary
Check it again, our homosexuality is consistent, see?
Ry never kissed a mouth that wasn’t mine
So don’t come after my lover this time
We have no reason for shame
Ryan is no common heathen, though I admit he’s got game
As you can see he has done nothing of hetero action
Are my answers to your satisfaction?

[TROY]
My God

[RYAN]
Chad, let’s go

[GAB]
So?

[ZEKE]
You can’t know if you don’t show

[GAB?]
Troy
Sharpay’s trying to turn you against me
How can you not know?

Whatever Troy, rumors only grow
And we both know what we know

We Know

Club Mood Vibes Podcast #563 ─ Elle Jae

ambient_loop_20250528_234118

In the middle of a golf course
There is quiet
For just a moment
The green grass.

When I auditioned for the musicale
I almost ruined the team
I had to sing,
And they couldn’t see my side.  
I played my way out,
Played the game so that they could see….
I played my way out
I looked up and East High had its eyes on me.

The Evans’ came around
Partial strangers
Moved to kindness by my talents
Did enough for me to get opportunities
To be college bound.
I sang in the Spring Music-AL,                                
I led my team to championships                              
I worked harder than Coach Bolton, himself.        
I sang Gabriella love songs until she fell               
I got all my friends hired, I defended them well.
And in the face of confusion and resistance
My talents wrote my future into existence.
And when my foes moved against me with persistence,    
I picked up a ball, I went the fucking distance! 
   
In the baseball diamond
There is Ryan
For just a moment
And also .. Chad?
When I was seventeen a summer job
Destroyed my team,
I was a clown,
I told so many lies. 

Bet on it, bet on it, bet on it (I'll sing my way out)
Bet on it, bet on it, bet on it (sing every note and win back my team.)
Bet on it, bet on it, bet on it, wait (east high has its eyes on you)
I'll sing my way out
Overwhelm them with melody 
This is the time for integrity, this is how 
I can prove they can bet on me

Bet on it, bet on it, bet on it, bet

Bet On It (Hurricane)
