The purpose of this post is to simply gather everything that’s been said by various people/platforms into one place, as well as offer some of my own connections and insight. If I could give credit to every single person I’ve learned from, I would. Secondly, the ideas and connections that I’ll explain here are not all going to be my own much of the storyline/meaning of the performance has already been dissected by many stays on twt and instagram already. I go into A LOT of detail, so you have been warned. This version of the post has been slightly edited to be more digestible to non-STAYs, but for a STAY-friendly version (with a lot more SKZ-related jokes and hype), you can head over here!ĭisclaimer! First off, this post is VERY LONG, as are all my other posts.
