I'm almost positive that I am going to audition for this show so I will let everyone know how it was to participate in this "illegal" show.

Reading this thread is just one big laugh.

I mean, come on. Can someone be seriously this DUMB?

Sleeth, perhaps you should read more on this board before making further posts. I can't wait for your next post.

It was just my OPINION.

If you didn't care for it, tough.

Only when they're professional productions, darlin'. Then I will eye roll to my heart's content.

And thanks for asking.

firstly, it was a very good production. sorry its below your standards, but it was amazing. secondly, you cant completely judge a production by a few photos of it. also, if you saw ALL the work that went into it, i think you'd change your mind.

Thanks for the laugh! I saw this long ago on the 1st. Nat. Tour, then at a not so good dinner theater in my area about 2 years ago. Have you never read this board before?? Maybe you like the abuse.

I hate the whole "it-may-have-sucked-but-i'm-applauding-them-because-of-all-the-work-they-put-into-it" thing. I don't CARE how much work they put into something, if it sucked it SUCKED.

And your production didn't look amazing or anything. It looked pretty status quo for a high school so we should probably stop saying much about it either way.

Do you sell tickets to watch set construction, too? That'd be AWESOME.

"so please just dont judge by the pictures"

What else are we supposed to judge it by?



You posted the pictures on a web site that is KNOWN to be VERY opinionated, and then you get upset that someone’s opinion doesn't agree with yours?

I do applaud all the hours of work you DID put into the show.

why are we picking on kids on the board? or young adults? If the poster had asked you what you thought of the pictures that would be the appropriate place to put your opinion but since the thread was not about that the comment wasn't really neccessary and just came off as catty and bitter.
I'm reminded of someone who put down a recent high school's production of West Side Story and kept saying how unprofessional and tacky it looked and sounded. High school is not supposed to be professional is it? I thought is was supposed to be fun and educational and something for teeneagers to do that made them want to pursue theatre as a profession.
Maybe thats just me.

Oh and this did give me a huge laugh. I could understand if Sleeth was outraged that the theatre was doing Drowsy or Wicked or something fairly new but Beauty has been around forever.

I think your school's BATB production looks great, BroadwayEnthusiast. Even if it wasn't, it doesn't matter what people think of it as long as you had fun with it. Don't get worked up over the negative comments made. If you were to defend yourself over every insult made on BWW, you're not going to have time left for anything else.

Ah, someone clearly didnt get the memo. Of course we're supposed to trash high school productions; it's in the membership agreement when you jon BBW. Peer pressure, we used to call it.

Theatres all over have been doing BATB since the rights came out a few years ago, The Beck Center in OH, The barn theatre in MI, the list could go on and on. The rights will come out for alot of the Disney Broadway cannon, and you will see im sure in a few years, god help us, rip off productions of Lion King, with milk jug reproductions of Julie Taymors bird puppets or stuffed animals on a bike, being gazelles.... Dis is a good company but when it comes down to it, its about the mighty $$.

$500,000?
Cheyenne Jackson tickled me. AFTER ordering SoMMS a drink but NOT tickling him, and hanging out with Girly in his dressing room (where he DIDN'T tickle her) but BEFORE we got married. To others. And then he tweeted Boobs. He also tweeted he's good friends with some chick on "The Voice" who just happens to be good friends with Tink's ex. And I'm still married. Oh, and this just in: "Pettiness, spite, malice ....Such ugly emotions... So sad." - After Eight, talking about MEEEEEEEE!!! I'm so honored! :-)

I think TheatreDiva should post the cave drawings from his high school's productions for comparison.
