When you said you could be at school till midnight my first thought was the quote from Mean girls: "I will keep you here all night." "We can't keep them past 4."
I just got cast in Newsies, and during tech week, Ben Frankhauser (Original Cast Davey on Broadway) in is coming to give us a workshop day and perform for us, and literally can't function??? EDIT: I met him, got a picture, and his signature and he's a pretty cool guy!!
I’m a techie for newsies for 13 hour long days working non stop. The thing is our director has only provided one meal all week instead of every day 2 times a day like she said she would. She ends rehearsals late so we actually regularly leave at 11:30 instead of 9:30 so our 13 hour rehearsal is really 15 hours at least with maybe a few bags of chips and a pack of fruit snacks for food
I did legally blonde last year! That show is a beast of a show. I was an ensemble member but I was in every scene because I was EVERY type of ensemble. That was a tuffy
Im a dancer but I’m in my first musical and I really have a new appreciation for it, it’s so much work and dedication. Show week is always the most stressful and tiring! The saddest part is definitely after the last show and you realize it’s really over
Is no one going to talk about the fact that they got a snow day and it didn’t even snow like up in Illinois my school won’t cancel even if it’s snowing and there’s an ice storm what the heck
At my school during tech the Saturday before starts it and cast goes 9am-9pm, Sunday is 11-9, the week is typically 4-10:30 and notes till 10:45/11, home around 11:30
There's always that one restaurant ALL theater kids go after performing the show the second night. My school is chili's i feel so bad for those waiters everytime...
Omg I’ve been binge watching tech week videos to prepare for my legally blonde tech week that’s in 2 weeks! It’s so funny that you’re in that show too!!
The town I used to live in my three first years ok hs did not have any performing arts hs or programs anywhere near me, then I moved and my last year of hs I was finally in a theater program 😩🙌🏼🙌🏼 and I remember those rehearsals until 10pm or 12am and I honestly loved them sm
OMG BB, I feel you when my friends are in the car and chirping/over-reactinn during the ride. It distracts me and makes me nervous so bad too, I'm so serious when I need them to stop it LOL, you're a great driver hunbun keep on keeping on
Ah weird coincidence but my school is doing Legally Blonde and we don't have an official tech week they just do that the week of the show. So had to come in school on a Saturday but I'm so happy still as I'm playing Elle ahhh! Love your videos btw xx
@@gabriellapaige7737 ah congrats I'm sure you will be amazing. Our first show is tomorrow (Wednesday) and last is Friday the cast is the closest it's ever been so are already super sad it's nearly all over. How about you when is your first show? Xx
we have tech week from 9-10 for two weeks. then, its show week! 9-11 every day till our 3 weekend shows. then, we repeat that show week for our 2nd show weekend. so fun!!!!
at my school we do this thing called “ Lock in” the week before tech week and we stay at school until midnight, we get out of school go to rehearsal and stay till midnight, it’s really fun tbh
When we dry ran a show, I do tech, last year w/o cast, the rehearsal we had planned to do it was canceled. So after the regular rehearsal, all tech stayed behind for 6 hours after cast left, (Cast left at around 8pm). Supposed to stay until midnight but, everyone was exhausted and so it was extra slow. It had been 19-20 I had been in my school. At least it was a Friday and didn't have to go to school the next day.
Last year, I was in the little mermaid. During tech week we were there until 11:30 PM every night and I had to get up at 4:30 every morning to babysit for our neighbor. School in between and homework after rehearsal...... yeah that was pretty bad.
when I did Legally we were double casted and I was Enid Hoops in one of the casts and my cast didn't get a full run through till opening either, luckily our Elle wasn't double casted so she had had a run through
I’m in middle school and I’m so excited to go to High School and act there. I won’t go to a performing arts school (I wish) but they have a really good acting program and I’m so excited!! This made me so excited! I also live in Georgia!
Harper Russell I’m going into hs too and my school has only been open for 3 years. I’m sorta sad because their arts programs are pretty underdeveloped.
Queen I live in GA and was doing tech for a thing we do called international night, which is like a talent show but the acts are related to the performer's culture. It's super hype and the ticket stand is basically a mob during lunch. WELLLLLL bc school was cancelled on Tuesday (even though it was sunny and dry and didn't even get to freezing temperatures asdfadfadjh), we ran the entire show THREE TIMES. We finally escaped that hellhole at 11:30. It was INSANE ALSO I SAW THAT LITTLE FLASH OF MY FAVORITE MURDER MY FAVVVVVV
i go to a public arts hs. for musical tech week we have all day pullouts so tech runs start at like 8 am and still go to 10 pm and then crew has to stay later while cast goes home.
my first high school tech week was also the week my grandfather passed away and i had so many tests that week it was literally THE worst week of my life
wish we had a tech week...my stage tech is lucky if the director even gives us a full day to have our time with the cast. last year, we had 1 day to tinker with the tech for Mary Poppins, a whole ass 3 hours show and we had a day to get the tech right...everyone loved the show but it was absolute hell for the stage tech and we all had at least 3 breakdowns ever hour 🤪
I'm so jealous of your costumes! Those cheerleading outfits are so cute :) I got to be in Legally Blonde in Year 12, I was a Delta Nu/Greek Chorus and it was honestly the most fun I've ever had in a show! I don't go to a performing arts school but luckily our teachers are super supportive during tech week (especially my chem teacher
I love that school got cancelled for snow but it didn’t even snow. In utah we got our first snow day in the past 14 years just three weeks ago cause it snowed literally 14 Inches over night
Omg I loved this it was so cool to watch. I go to a public school in lower Alabama and we don't have a theatre or anywhere to perform and a super low budget so we do shows in the gym 😂 out troope is going to make a channel for our seniors to keep up with us! Please keep making these kinds of videos!!!! ❤️❤️❤️
ok this was a while ago, but I did legally blonde at my school in march! our tech week (or as we affectionally call it, hell week) was surprisingly quite chill, and I was also DA Joyce Riley :)
how do y’all school have no regulations for how long they keep students?? In NYC as soon as the security guards leave the students have to leave as well. And to even stay for tech week and saturdays in my school we have to ask for permission.
I’m a theater kid but i go to a normal school (we’re doing Grease) and we just went through tech (hell) week. Not to mention everyone else in school is on break and we have to come in on our break and Saturday and Sunday or this week so funnnnn
Oh man, we just finished our production of My Fair Lady at my school. We actually had to push our show back a weekend because all of tech week we had snow days! But it ended up going pretty well. We actually didn’t run the show fully until our preview show for parents so I feel you on being nervous. I’m really sad the shows over because it’s my last high school show but I’m sooo glad tech week is over and I can SLEEP.
My school just closed our production of The Wizard of Oz. Tech week was so stressful, I have never had a tech week that stressful. Everyone was getting sick, people weren't allowed to perform.
One time we had to replace our lead a week before opening so we stayed in rehearsal until midnight for 7 days 🤘 Two of those days were tech weekend and we were there from 9 am til midnight both of those days.
FUN FACT: I went to a summer MT camp last summer called TPAP, where I met like 6 people that go to your school! When I saw Sylvia on the vlog I was shook. edit: AND CAITLYN!! holy cow
after opening night for every show at my school, the whole cast goes to waffle house and ive never seen a waitress as terrified as when a group of 25 theatre kids walk in at midnight to get waffles and sing showtunes all night

ME TOO!
Funny play rehearsal ended at 4:30ish today and it was just setting up the set
SAAAAAAAMEEE
I lowkey love tech week because we all bond over how miserable we are
John Stoll and then when it’s over you don’t know what to do with life
It’s a love/hate relationship.
the only time to bond because u cant talk backstage
I guess I’m the only one who LOVES tech week
@@-maxipoo- it’s fun but also it’s hell at the same time so I have mixed feelings
All the theater kids at my school always die during tech week too
EVERYONE dies during tech week
You arent a real theatre kid unless you do
it actually the worst thing ever
I hate it because it problema start to form
SAME it's so stressful
The entire drive to the theatre is the girls arguing and Elijah being a mood eating popcorn and singing legally blonde
imagine having that much wing space, i wish i could relate aksjdn
lauren Garanzuay ikr
omg same 😭
Yeah me too but they go to a performing arts high school so they kinda have to have a big theatre
lauren Garanzuay RIGHT
you need to post more school/ musical theater vids!!!!
I just got cast in Newsies, and during tech week, Ben Frankhauser (Original Cast Davey on Broadway) in is coming to give us a workshop day and perform for us, and literally can't function???

“I bet ur school hasn’t kept u for rehearsal until midnight” oh sweetie that’s a normal time for my school in tech week
At my school we stayed over 26 hours
Isabella Leigh Jesus... for what show???
@@ethelb6237 Peter and the star catcher
Same!😭😭
Yeah same. Normally our tech week rehearsals go from 7am-11pm or midnight
I’d love to see a tech week video in the eyes of a techie. I’ve been at the school so late before it’s crazy.
*Tips for Surviving Tech Week*
1. Ibuprofen
2. Tea with honey
3. Lot and lots of baths
4. 300 sticks of deodorant
5. Buy a casket in advanced
LMAO NUMBER 5
I did legally blonde last year! That show is a beast of a show. I was an ensemble member but I was in every scene because I was EVERY type of ensemble. That was a tuffy
This makes me miss my show so much 😥
Im a dancer but I’m in my first musical and I really have a new appreciation for it, it’s so much work and dedication.
Show week is always the most stressful and tiring! The saddest part is definitely after the last show and you realize it’s really over

True true
tech week=death week. also who are you playing? I love legally blonde!

Ry literally in our rehearsal matrix it’s called hell week. I relate to your comment😂
my school just did legally blonde and based on her lines and prop i think she was the woman in court who questions the gay guy in gay or european
Ry same one night I got home at 2:30 am and had to wake up at 7 the next morning
Carson Campbell HONESTLY! I'm a senior and last year in musical during tech week we stayed till 1am! it's insaneee

At my school during tech the Saturday before starts it and cast goes 9am-9pm, Sunday is 11-9, the week is typically 4-10:30 and notes till 10:45/11, home around 11:30
Watching this during tech week at my performing arts high school where I major in musical theatre and I’m crying
There's always that one restaurant ALL theater kids go after performing the show the second night. My school is chili's i feel so bad for those waiters everytime...

Neapolitan_AD I did theater and band in high school but I’m still doing band in college (Yeet) and it was the absolute worst

As a theater kid I cannot confirm or deny that this is exactly like what tech week is like
I’m a theater kid but i go to a normal school (we’re doing Grease) and we just went through tech (hell) week. Not to mention everyone else in school is on break and we have to come in on our break and Saturday and Sunday or this week so funnnnn

My school just closed our production of The Wizard of Oz. Tech week was so stressful, I have never had a tech week that stressful. Everyone was getting sick, people weren't allowed to perform.
my school does this thing called dance week, we basically do the dances to the songs till we want to throw up :)) yayy (dance week starts monday)
One time we had to replace our lead a week before opening so we stayed in rehearsal until midnight for 7 days 🤘
Two of those days were tech weekend and we were there from 9 am til midnight both of those days.
FUN FACT: I went to a summer MT camp last summer called TPAP, where I met like 6 people that go to your school! When I saw Sylvia on the vlog I was shook.
edit: AND CAITLYN!! holy cow
my school is doing that musical as well!! I got Pilar!! 💕
tech week = hell week. us theatre kids become on edge and sleep deprived :))
My school is also doing legally blonde!! What role are you playing??
our school did legally blonde and it was s o fun and now i’m sad that our production ended
Hm elijah's wearing a bands visit tshirt can we get a rip for April 7?
Waffle House: the classic Atlanta high schooler late night hang out spot
after opening night for every show at my school, the whole cast goes to waffle house and ive never seen a waitress as terrified as when a group of 25 theatre kids walk in at midnight to get waffles and sing showtunes all night
Once school is cancelled, they can’t backtrack that.
They are also not supposed to cancel school till 8
But that’s in the Midwest
Where we have polar vortexes, and actual snow
