This isn't high school, but a good example of why white people shouldn't attempt DREAMGIRLS.

I don't know if this is HS, but it's all kinds of wrong regardless:

Posted: 2/23/10 at 7:17pmWhy the eff does Mother's Younger Brother have a tennis racket?
#412re: The Official 'Bad High School Productions on YouTube' Megathread

Ladies with parasols
Fellows with tennis balls
I guess they couldn't find any tennis balls so a racket had to suffice. That sweater he's wearing is butt ugly! Father sounds as if he's been stripped of all emotion and feeling.
And why is the Little Boy being played by a girl?!

Posted: 2/23/10 at 9:08pmI bet the romantic scenes between Mother and Tateh were very awkward in this production.

Yeah, but is it necessary for him to still have it after the opening number?!
His costume is a complete anachronism.
The Little Girl looks like something out of Dickens!

That Crime of The Century was pretty bad. Evelyn Nesbit needs to work on her singing. And the staging was pretty bland. All she and her two girls did was stand there and sing.
I can't get over how bad Younger Brother's costume is. It's hilariously bad.

Posted: 2/24/10 at 1:57pmI'm pretty damned sure they didn't have metal tennis rackets 100 years ago.

I do not want to be rude, but that has to be a joke.
Although, am I seeing things or is the Little "Boy" also one of Nesbit's showgirls?

This just makes me sad.
Tommy is one of my favorite shows, and I'm not against gender bending roles...but at least cast someone who can sing. I also wish the choir could be seen, too. I realize it's high school, but there are other high schools that could have taken this show and really run with it.

My school is known for having good shows, but this put a damper on us:

Footloose is that kind of show where it's easy to put on, but it's very difficult to make it good. SO MANY schools do Footloose! I am in that video. That was the first time I did Footloose. The second time I was in it, our performances were last week. It was the Wichita schools district show. All the high schools in Wichita come together to put on a show. So I've done Footloose twice. It's such a horrible show, but I bet it was amazing on Broadway!

I will be sure to upload our school's production of 'The Producers' once we've finished. Rehearsals have been all sorts of fail. I must resist from slandering against all the cast members.
/still bitter at not being cast as Roger

Not high school but might as well be. All kinds of fail regardless - perhaps the only thing worse than bad high school theater is bad cruise ship theater!

Posted: 2/28/10 at 9:00pmThere's no youtube video, but my old middle school did The Wiz (NOT wizard of oz, the wiz) with a cast that was approx 90% white and asian, with the wicked witch being the one and only black kid.
