Story Hub
This is where we are keeping the story, characters, songs and ideas we are still working on.
Story so far
All 34 songs in story order.
Character list
Everyone we have in the musical right now.
Song list
What happens in each song and who is in it.
Relationships
How the characters connect to each other.
Things to remember
Some things are decided. Some are still just ideas.
| Topic | Where we are with it |
|---|---|
| The ending | Just an idea One idea is that Zeus takes Greece and the name Ares away from him, turning him into Mars. We have not decided if we are doing this yet or exactly how it would happen. |
| Captain Atticus | Current Atticus is Leonidas’s second in command. He leads the interaction with the Persian Messenger in the new version. Artemis is only the goddess. |
| Doubling | Still working on The Ephors also play other characters. Right now we have the Persian Messenger, Persian General, Oracle and the Kleon/Hades track. The fifth track is still open. Atticus also plays Cleom, and Ephialtes also plays Leonidas’s father. |
| Hades | Not decided Hades may be played by the same person as Kleon, but we have not decided what he actually does in the musical yet. |
| History and mythology | Current We use real history and mythology, but this is still our version of the story. Something being historical does not automatically make it part of the musical. |
Music
The different groups should sound different from each other. We are using rock, pop, R&B, rap, soul, EDM, dark synth, acoustic and electronic drums, synth bass, 808s, horns and strings.
Athena: vibraphone · Apollo: harp and voices · Artemis: flute · Ares: march drums and strings · Aphrodite: marimba · Poseidon: piano · Zeus: electric sound · Hades: dark choir · Cyrus: disco synth
Keep separate
The World Before Tomorrow is a completely different project. None of its story belongs in The Final Stand. What a God is also not a song in this musical.
