WHY oh WHY oh WHY do they let dance/drill team choreogrpahers work on musicals if they don't know how to choreogrpah for a muscial number, rather than a pep-ralley? Not saying all dance instructors do this, but there is a difference in the moves.

What, if anything, does this choreography have to do with people waiting for a wagon???

I'm tempted to make an allowance for that Adelaide because she had the flu, but her voice is pretty bad and I don't think it's because she was sick.

Edit: Oh, wait, she's 12. That makes it a little different, too.

Double edit: Oh dear God, that guy has better high notes than I do. O___o
Jimmy, what are you doing here in the middle of the night? It's almost 9 PM!

Check this out. It's a production of Little Shop of Horrors that somehow included Mean Green Mother From Outer Space in the show. The voice of the plant sounds like he's doing a bad Levi Stubbs impression, and the staging/choreography is bizarre. Notice all the actors dressed in coral green costumes. The production values however, don't look bad.

This isn't even High School - it's worse. It's graduates (aged about 20-25) of a professional performing arts academy in Germany trying to pull of "The Bitch of Living" as part of their senior showcase. I can't even tell you how many things are wrong about this performance. Let's just say, those of you who don't know German, good for you, otherwise the dialogue in the beginning would already be killing you.

^ The same school did The Producers.
The production itself isn't too bad (I have to give them credit for putting on the show in the first place); the orchestra is a bit iffy in spots, though. And sometimes the actors in the leads fall into trying to copying their predecessors:

What I find amusing is that it starts in German, they sing in English, and the only time they actually sound together is when they sing "do they think we want this?" Otherwise, it's a bit of a hot mess.
