I saw this earlier. Wasn’t too surprising that most of them knew Newsies and no one knew Hello Dolly, though you’d think since they sing “Dolly” in the clip one of them might have at least guessed.

Can't believe I watched that whole thing. Procrastination is real! My favorite was the one who said "I literally have never seen this!!" to every one.

They clearly picked the wrong college kids!  I m in college now and my theater loving friends and I would have known all of these in two seconds flat!I might not have known gentlemen prefer blondes though. I'm sure if you picked the theater college kids they would've had a much easier time. I do find it interesting that the black people know the wiz but the white people didn't .

Why learn more about the art form you love when you can listen to the same 3 shows over and over?

Tom is hot a f. I'd love to introduce him to musicals, slowly. Among other things. 

Still, I didn't think movie musicals from almost any era had a good reputation among theatre fans let alone the general public. I don't hold it against them.

Why would anyone expect random college kids to know musicals? I wouldn't be able to, for example, be able to identify most ballets or even cars, or athletes. Not my jam.

Yeah, if they'd been musical theatre students, that's another thing. Of course a handful of people aren't going to know a lot about a particular genre. And if they did, it wouldn't make for as entertaining a video.

Silly Lizzie, college theatre kids are no better. They only know about 5 shows and think RENT is ancient.

Well, to be fair the RENT score sounds more dated than Hello, Dolly!

Oh Mr. Nowack. I've been to BroadwayCon three times.

Good, more Brandon for me, even if he knows nothing about musicals.
