This is one of the show my theatre company did and its the same one Adam Lambert was in when he was a kid.

I thought the Little Shop one wasn't bad for a Middle School, other than that one girl right in the middle who clearly couldn't keep up.

I think I might upload some stuff from my highschool production of Footloose. It truly wasn't good. Only a few people could act/sing (me hopefully being one of them since I did sing "Still Rockin'"), the choreography was horendous, the staging was ick, the band wasn't good...

But it was fun to be in! That was the plus in it all! XD

EDIT: That Sweeney Todd production was actually very good.

The link above is exactly why some High Schools should be banned from putting on musicals.

The Millie's acting is good, but her vocals are... argh.

The 'America' is an absolute gem.

Watching "America." It totally makes sense that the pro-Puerto Rico girls are singing along to the chorus!

Pretty awesome On My Own from Les Mis.

One of my favorite

The Jet girls try to stop the boys, LOL. And Doc laughs at them.

Seeing as I was in WSS (I played Doc), I have to comment on this.

1. The set. There are so many terrific elements that it's hard to chose just one favorite - I think it may have to be that Yankee sign.

2. WTF random Jet girls? This is like the production of Les Miserables I saw where there was a random female ensemble in the prison scene. And I love how they're totally okay with Anita telling everyone that Tony won't see Maria because she's been shot.

3. Costumes. It makes perfect sense that all the Jets wear the same exact thing. I mean, how else could we know that they're a gang?

4. I love that Doc laughs at them. Seriously. That just takes the scene from being good to being amazing.

And this is a GEM.

Those are some of the whitest Puerto Ricans I've ever seen. XD

For the lulz of it, here's their "Dance at the Gym". Perhaps not a gem like "America", but I'll let you all be the judge of that: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1I3gJL0bj5w
Now, I realize that this could be opening night. Or maybe they didn't have the funds to get better costumes. Or maybe the band didn't have at least two weeks to learn the score...

And not to sound rude, but watching videos like this make me that much more grateful I had a wonderful director and cast when I was involved with the show.

Also, I think Cabaret can be done at a high school. It just depends on the talent and the creativity of the cast/director. Obviously that high school had neither!
