    The staging of Satisfied (especially the beginning) seriously is full body chills every time. I was BLOWN AWAY seeing it live but honestly the cameras do it justice. (Also it makes the intro make so much more sense! I never understood just from the soundtrack!)

    Man, you have absolutely nothing to apologize for when it comes to shedding tears to this play. I've been listening to the soundtrack since 2016, but still cried like a baby the 2 times I've actually seen it.

      KMichelle Argus Well it wasn’t lust per say, they were intellectually matched. Angelica met Ham first and Instantly felt a connection. As soon as she saw Eliza loved him though she lead Ham to her, because she truly cared for her sister. Doesn’t mean all her feelings magically went away tho.

    I'm coming into this totally fresh - never heard any of the music (which is weird, as I did musical theater for years. Just missed this one.) I was like, "Is that . . . is that Kristoff?!" It is! I was sleepy and need to do a rewatch later today. Feel like I missed a lot. But my favorite so far are the Schulyer sisters. Those are some amazing actress singers.

      What's amazing about the ones who played the Schuyler sisters was when they were first cast, they got along really well and would spend time harmonizing and riffing with one another in the dressing room. In an interview, Lin-Manuel Miranda said some of the riffs in the songs they sang were not originally in there, but they played off each other so well that he kept what Renee, Phillipa, and Jasmine came up with in the musical!

    This is invaluable in terms of being able to analyze and appreciate the staging. That moment in Non-Stop where he doesn’t take his eyes off Angelica as she leaves and only acknowledges Eliza when she drifts into view was powerful. When I saw this the first time, I was convinced those two were going to have an affair in Act Two.

  • @marvelboi3416
    @marvelboi3416 4 роки тому +4

    And the song Helpless was inspired by Beyoncè flow in her song Countdown when Eliza said, "In the living room stressin'....My father's stonefaced
    while you're asking for his blessin'". Lin Manuel Miranda was listening to that song when he was thinking Eliza would sound amazing having that same flow in the song!!!

    Just wanted to give you a fun fact. If you don’t know this already. Lin casted the cast to not look like what everyone looked like back then. He wanted to show the story, with people of different ethnicities because he wanted it to relate to how the world looks today, and not focus on the bad of the slaves, and ethnicities being separated. It’s so people are able to relate to it more now a days.

    Honestly, there are few musicals that i've seen in my time that have given me goosebumps throughout the entire performance and Hamilton is one of them. I didn't understand in the begining when this musical first appeared what all the hype was about but then my friend showed me two songs (my shot, and the schyler sisters) and i was hooked. And until this premeired on Disney Plus i hadn't listened to the other songs and watched the whole performance when it aired on Disney Plus straight and I still get Goosebumps. I love how this was shown on the stage. It makes so much sense especially with the storytelling of the time with word of mouth and paper being the main reasons as to stories being past on to generations. I'm a history major in College and I love this musical sooo much it's a great way to show the history of our country epecially for those in history classes who may think it's borring and cannot understand what's being read to them but with this version of hisotry being told in constant movment and relevence those people may understand history more and even enjoy it! LOVED your reaction!

    awesome!! just watched earlier with my family :) (mom, sister, brother in law, and aunt) my mom and i had seen it last december performed in chicago! was so awesome watching the original cast with all the nice camera work. what a good experience. (we all cried except my aunt lol! surprisingly my bro in law cried more than my sister haha. its quiet uptown HITS)
    my bro in law and i talked abt the stage and choreography and how awesome it is! so simple and yet it conveys so much. the moving of props in the choreography is such a neat idea!
    and im so excited to eventually see your reactions to act two 😄 i adored all your act 1 reactions

      also while i may not have cried through Every song, when I saw it live I was phsyically shaking through like the first three songs before I could finally calm down like it was just like wow.. like it was happening i was there it was real! so i totally get where ur coming from haha
      also just gotta add on.. the CREATIVITY in the choreography and everything for satisfied is just.. mind blowing. it feels like watching a MOVIE rather than a live performance. absolutely just.. takes you into the story. idek how to articulate it... just wow.
