okay look, what we're doing may be cruel and sh.tty

but hey, life sucks, get a helmet. anyone's free to criticize,

yeah they're kids, they're amateurs, there's varying degrees of passion in these vids, and there's only so much money, practice and professionalism a high school can churn out

but still, some of these are just really bad. sorry.

Our favorite Marius in his big dramatic turn.

I think that might be the funniest thing I've ever seen.

I would like to congratulate the Blacklick Valley High School drama department. Without their horrid Les Mis, "Carrie" would forever hold the award for the worst costumes and sets ever. Nice to see someone else get that chance.

Marius has made my ears bleed. As for the Out Tonight, there was nothing redeeming at all. The singer was dreadful, as was her outfit. The choreography was terrible and the dancers were out of sync.

But Marius takes the cake. I'm listening to his Empty Chairs as I type. I want to stop it but I can't. I do, however, wanna smack that awful beret off his head and stuff it in his mouth. You all nkow the director thought the berets were probably the best idea ever! No...

Does it make me a bad person to put our little Maruis' "Empty Chairs...." on my MP3 player?

Edit: How could I keep it to myself. Here you are guys, "Empty Chairs...." Performed by our Maruis.

Not bad by any means but funny to hear it in a different language

Blaxx: Did it look like those Wicked ensemble kids were doing the "Charlie Brown" to you too?

Man, its hard to even get through this...lol...the Marius in the Les Miz clip...I see a bad Jack in "Into the Woods" in his future...

I'm watching their production's "Rue Plumet / A Heart Full of Love" now.

Was there one good singer in this production?

Edit: Eponine and Cosette would probably be good with (more?) training.

taboo123: Look, if I had YouTube videos of my OWN high school musicals, I'd probably post the link. There were a handful of talented kids in my school, but for the most part, the cast and the direction were always GAWDAWFUL. Its just a little cathartic to look at this and laugh at the memory of my own bad high school productions.

I just stumbled across this one...it's actually a college, and the performers are fine, but it is the most BIZARRE interpretation I've ever seen...

...Kabuki "Into the Woods"?!?! wtf?!

Where's that video of the white kids singing Run and Tell That from Hairspray where they changed all the lyrics? That was entertaining.

I love the farm animals! ha

Is this a college????

I don't know what the worst part is - attending "Blacklick Valley High School" or living in "Nanty Glo, Pennsylvania"?

alliez92092, is this what you were talking about?? I just came across it on YouTube. URBANdale ... hahaha.

Posted: 9/2/08 at 2:57pm

Do you think any of those kids have seen Hairspray and were thinking "Gawd I am so embarrassed/offended to be doing this"? Because that's what I'd be thinking.

Edit: Can anyone figure out exactly what the "new" lyrics are? Its hard to understand. Updated On: 9/2/08 at 02:57 PM

Oh dear.

I will never understand why some high school directors put their students through such misery.

The fact of the matter is, 99.9% of high schools that attempt something like Les Miz, or Wicked, or Rent will be godawful because they are just too difficult to do if you don't know exactly what you're doing.

There are TONS of shows that can be done well on a budget, if the director knows what they are doing.
