Michael Gruber - Tumblr Posts - Page 2

I really love this interview!!! Michael actually talks about how he ended up in Cats in the first place and goes really in depth about his acting career over the years.
i will never shut up about how incredible john partridge and michael gruber’s voices sound together when they sing old deuteronomy literally sounds like pure magic




A bunch of photos with a fan, this was from the early 2000s during his time at Swing! Home page to the fansite (X) the website is slowly going down so some pages may be broken along with it is a bit hard to navigate.

I found this podcast episode with Michael Gruber and Tony Vierling! It’s really funny :)
It might just be the 98 bias speaking but i really do feel like michael gruber munkustrap + john partridge tugger sounded the best together in old deuteronomy. I've listened to plenty of performances of Cats at this point, & there's always performers out there who I think did as well as (or better than!) their 98 cast equivalent but Man. I dont think I've ever heard an old deut duo that topped those two.
Him and that goddamn bandanna istg

Reblogging this simply because I wanted to add that I think it’s really funny that Michael constantly makes fun of his age

Everyone say “Thank you, Michael Gruber!”
Gruberstrap's little bounce when Misto does his bounce is everything


I love Jenny's "OMG" point at Misto, and Skimble's little bow/curtsey thing. Everyone is so hyped for Misto, I love it.


Needed to gif the two Gruberstrap winks because they're so adorable and I love them!
I think non-Germans might not be aware of this because there's rarely a way to naturally stumble upon it but
GERMAN IS INSANELY REPRESENTED ON WIKIPEDIA
I rarely see wiki entries (that aren't hyperspecific to a country or culture) that don't have a German page! In fact:

["Number of German articles on Wikipedia by 2023 (... in) June there were 2.8 Million German articles on Wikipedia. This places the German wikipedia on the third place of the ranking, whcih is lead by the English version with around 6.7 Million articles."]
41% of the English Wikipedia exists in German! This is a literal goldmine of content!!
Read about your interests! Look up your favorite celebrities! Read summaries of books, movies, mythologies, whatever your heart desires!!!!
Want to read but don't know what to search for? The homepage of the German Wikipedia (https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Hauptseite) is updated everyday with - an article of the day - on this day in the past - in the news - recently deceased - did you know? for you to peruse. And of course, the German version has a "random article" function too! It's called "Zufälliger Artikel" or "Zufällige Seite" and can be found on the left side of the screen (laptop) and in the popup menu on the left side (mobile)!

This is my favorite interview with Michael Gruber. Not because it’s particularly intriguing or he gives out any new heard before information (except being jealous that Mungojerrie’s actor could do his makeup absurdly fast) but because or one part of it. The interviewer asks “What was the hardest part about being in Cats?” Michael replies “Well let me tell you what was easy” and then just, never answers his question. He goes on about what was easy and then they just, move on??? Dude
It’s like “whatever you say gorgeous” lmao
