all the world's a stage is a Yuuri/Viktor AU fic written by Braveten. It is an alternate universe fic in which Victor Nikiforov is a famous actor whom Yuuri Katsuki has a crush on.
Summary:
Everyone has a guilty pleasure. For Yuuri, it just happens to be romance movies starring famous heartthrob Victor Nikiforov. (And, honestly, on the spectrum of guilty pleasures, he figures that his is on the far, far more innocent side.)Victor is a famous romance actor whom Yuuri, still a figure skater in this universe, has a crush on. Phichit Chulanont signs Yuuri up to audition to be Victor's trainer for a new movie about figure skating. Yuri Plisetsky is also an actor working on the film.

The fic was translated into Spanish
AU where Victor is the the most famous actor in Hollywood and Yuuri is a silver medalist at this year’s GPF… and also has a huge crush on Victor. Yuuri auditions to become his skating coach for a movie with the help of Pitchit and cuteness ensues. Fun, great writing, good plot. Lots of fluff, some angst, and a little bit of smut. Amazing fic![2]
Reasons I love this fic:1. I’m a whore for the celeb AU. I’ll read it all day. Every day.
Read this if you ship Victuuri and love all things good and beautiful.[4]
2. I’m a slut for Viktor spoiling Yuuri. Really. Just give the Katsudon all the love and cuddles and good things in the world. Oh, and poodles too.
3. I’m in love with the “Phichit-being-at-the-helm-of-the-Victuuri-ship” trope. Actually, I might just be in love with Phichit.
4. This may not be a reason, but I opened this fic and didn’t do anything else (anything) until I was finished. So, basically, I spent 14 hours in bed staring at my iPad.
5. The world is f***ed up, so why not read about gay figure skaters?
i found this fic today and i was all emotional at work, if you haven’t then please do it now!! it’s adorable!! braveten has done it again and crushed my heart into pieces.[5]
