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???

some of the best lamenting ive ever seen.

With Adelaide's Lament, I really can't tell which is worse - the singing, the direction, or the person in the left-corner yawning and looking completely bored. Maybe some combination.
I freaking love this thread.
o god!
that lament
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S--THV7ZORw A little bit ridiculous, a lot fantastic. A counter-tenor singing "Glitter and Be Gay." This guy has an upper register I have never, ever heard on a guy before. Scary!

The witch was wearing a trash bag, but at least Fat Jeremy Piven gave his best performance yet.

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
I love how she says "It says here..." and then looks up to cue to the band, or sound guy who obviously fell asleep.

That guy sounds just like a woman! WHOA!!
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 was on my friend's facebook wall. She's doing Theme Park Entertainment, so it made me think of the best thread on BWW.

Let us all, if you will be so kind, partake in the heavy metal rock concert that is "Fortune Favors the Brave." Hang on to your seats, kids.

What was that school thinking with AIDA: Rock Concert?

I cannot even fathom what would give anyone an idea to do something so silly, that staging doesn't even fit with Aida. ROFL.

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.
*Enjoy*:

This is gotta get a gimmick from the same Gypsy that was posted about earlier in this thread. It still sounds like Mazeppa fell into the pit for the lead trumpet part!
^ 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.
