This is my schools Kiss Me Kate. Its not the worst thing I've ever seen, aside from my admittedly terrible dancing.

I think I just found a goldmine... It's not a high school production, but I'm pretty sure it's a high schooler singing some broadway stuff... Wow, just wow. My favorites are probably Poor Unfortunate Souls and One Song Glory. Literally no words can describe it.

Okay so first of all, Charles Guiteau is a woman: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8L_4RdnfC0I
and I know this one isn't, THAT bad. But the choreography, IS hillariously bad. And Calamity with a lisp? Nice one! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4YNntlu6ye4

Looks like Shelia's problems at home have led her straight from the ballet to the buffet!

Posted: 10/23/10 at 11:54amHonestly? How cruel to say about a teenager girl. She is extremely talented for such a young age, and very beautiful! You are pathetic, and probably don't have a voice like hers.

Posted: 10/23/10 at 2:17pmShame on the costumer though. I don't think the girl feels any more comfortable in that costume. The costumer should have thought of something to better suit her. Even though her voice is good, it's hard not to be distracted by her figure.

Posted: 10/23/10 at 9:17pm^Exactly! She's probably not even overweight, but the costume is extremely unflattering.

Posted: 10/23/10 at 9:49pmI'm sorry, but "At the Buffet" made me laugh reeeeeeeeally hard.

The high school I attend performed Fiddler on the Roof this weekend. I know it is illegal for audience members to film the show. Someone did on Friday night, so I talked to the director, who added a pre-show announcement last night.
However, our SM and crew members filmed several scenes from the wings last night. They claim that they are allowed to film their own production and post the videos on facebook/youtube, but I am pretty sure it is not allowed. Who is correct: me or them?

What bullying? No one is bullying. Bullying implies power. Making tasteless comments is not bullying. Being rude and bullying are not the same thing.
Period. Done.
From the looks of it, though...there was no costumer...probably done by the cast themselves and instructed to wear "dance clothes".
She did sound beautiful, and acted the part well.

I was part of this production, im playing bobby and you can see me in the back.
I'm very proud of the work we did with that show and think that the girl in question was a great Sheila.
In terms of costumes our company ordered our costumes for us to try and match the iconic styles of the show. It was our job to provide the production team our sizes and were given the costumes with definite time to order something else should a piece of clothing not work. The show ranged in ages from 15-19 with two 14 year olds as well. Many of these kids are incredibly accomplished already and it was a great joy to work with all of them. I invite you all to go see some of our other videos on youtube as well!
much love!

Posted: 10/24/10 at 3:12pmI'm sorry, but it pisses me off to no end when others are like "OMG, THERE SHOULDNT EVEN BE THESE VIDEOS, ITS ILLEGAL". Everything has to go through licensing companies these days. Changing literally one word, what have you. Does it really affect the licensing company or authors integrity of a clip of a performance is on YouTube? No. Those videos are there for a reason: they showcase performers, and for performers who are unfamiliar with their material, it's a good guide. It's nothing more than educational, really.

Posted: 10/24/10 at 6:23pmJust because you disagree with it, doesn't make it legal. Part of the contract that is signed states that you do not have permission to make video/dvds. Period. Many agreements allow you to make ONE for the school archives....but not for duplication or publication.

WTF?? Looks like Sweeney got his special chair from Ikea. And who is that with Sweeney? Part of a Greek chorus? And what's that pose she strikes at 58 seconds into the video? And...and...so many questions! (I can't stop watching it.)
Brooklyn Technical High School Spring Musical, Sweeney Todd

Not sure if anyone has posted this video yet, but the beginning made me just about choke with laughter. High school versions of A Little Fall of Rain are almost always bad, but this is atrocious.

Thought this was worth resurrecting the thread - it claims it's clips of a high school production of The Wiz, but the content makes it completely unrecognizable (namely the BRITNEY SPEARS MEGAMIX). Yeesh.
Edit: It apparently didn't come through the first time - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DPX1YmRrBEk

Posted: 11/23/10 at 7:49pmWell at least in the Endless Night video he is trying to put some acting into the performance. Although he should never try to sing that song again that was just horrid. My ears bled and I almost had a heart attack trying to get through the whole video.
